It may seem like an arduous task to keep you and your little one free of germs, bacteria, and viruses while on vacation. But nothing can spoil a perfectly planned trip more than being sick.
One of the most common ways to prevent germs is "Lavese sus manos!" Wash your hands! As a traveling mom, I know that a convenient bathroom is not always in walking distance and you need to be prepared to clean your children's hands even if there is no public restroom nearby.
Many antibacterial soaps and hand sanitizers contain chemicals like Triclosan, Benzalkonium, and Chloride, that I don't care to use. So, what I have found is both effective and an all-natural, alcohol-free spray form, that won't dry your hands, and doesn't contain any dangerous chemicals. Clean Wellantibacterial sprays and soaps are safe and have been proven to kill 99.99% of germs. This spray also comes in a wipe form, which is perfect for air travel. It has a light thyme scent that my daughter likes and it's small enough to fit in my purse. I spray it on desks, our hands, toys, handles, and pretty much anything that needs to be disinfected.
Washing your hands on the go is the most effective way to stay germ free, but I recommend carrying a natural sanitizer such as Clean Well or EO's organic sanitizer for all of those unexpected cleaning needs. They are sold in Target, Amazon.com, and health food stores.
Keep clean naturally and keep traveling!
