3 Reasons My Children Are #FreeToBe Adventurous

3 Reasons My Children Are #FreeToBe Adventurous all free clear

Thank you to all free clear for sponsoring today’s post and inspiring me to try all free clear!

When I first became a mom 12 years ago, I worried about messes.  I worried about them a lot.  I worked hard to make sure my daughter’s clothing, face, and hands we always clean.  Even when we were playing.  I didn’t like dirt and I had a hard time letting go and allowing a mess.  We don’t wear shoes in our home and a clean house and clean children has always made me a happy mom.  Fast forward a little over a decade and I have now let go of my worries about cleaning and my children are #FreeToBe Adventurous all the time!

Here’s 3 Reasons Why:

1.  I Want My Kids To Be Kids.

They grow up so fast!  Worrying about dirt and messes takes away from the great experiences you can have with your kids.  When you as a mother are on edge and not enjoying simple times together like playing with them, it takes away from the most memorable experiences you can have with them.

Playing with Chalk #FreeToBe Adventurous all free clear

Blowing bubbles, laying in the grass, getting on your hands and knees to color your patio in colored chalk and even playing in the mud (my children also use the clay soil in our backyard to make adobe!) are things your children aren’t always going to want to do and they are only little once!  Take a deep breath and let go!  You and your kiddos will remember these types of fun times for the rest of their lives and hopefully when they are playing with their own children later in life.  Make some memories!

 2.  I Want Them To Enjoy & Respect Nature

Rainy Spring Afternoon #FreeToBe Adventurous all free clear

My children love exploring.  It’s a different adventure everyday.  Every season offers different flowers, plants, animals and weather.  If it’s raining, so what!  It can be messy, dirty, muddy and wet, but my family just loves it!  Especially our boys.

If they see mud, they head right for it.  A patch of soft moss, they want to get right down on the ground and touch it.  Going outdoors is always a sensory experience and most often my little one’s favorite part of the day!

Picking Dandelions Spring #FreeToBe Adventurous all free clear

After our long winter this year, we are enjoying picking flowers (even if they are dandelions!), watching the growth of our flowers and the buds on our trees starting to change into leaves.  It’s almost magical how everything blooms and awakens in the Spring!

A raincoat and boots are easy to throw on, but they aren’t necessary! My daughter’s boots from last year didn’t fit, so we just put on her Crocs and went out into the rain.  She had a blast!  Why wait for perfect conditions – live in the moment!

3. My Laundry Routine is Now Made Simple w/ all free clear!

Using all free clear not only takes care of those outdoor stains like mud splashes on the back of pants, chalk on sleeves and pollen and grass stains on clothing, but it also protects my family’s sensitive skin.  all free clear has only 9 ingredients, that’s less than half the ingredients of Tide Free & Gentle! It’s 100% hypoallergenic too!

Other laundry products can contain irritants that can cause allergies or even rashes, but all free clear is the #1 recommended detergent brand by Dermatologists, Allergists, and Pediatricians for sensitive skin and it’s tough on stains yet gentle enough for the whole family.  It’s also safe for use in standard and HE machines.  Powerful Clean. Gentle on Skin.
