“What should we do while Mom eats breakfast? Why take all the dress up clothes and stick them in a bath full of water of course!” Did I really need more laundry to wash? Really? Laundry–it’s a monster. As a new family of seven our laundry is reaching new highs, literally!
You might be surprised that laundry is actually my favorite household chore. I’ve always liked it. There’s just something about taking a pile of dirty clothes, sending them through a wash and dry cycle, and then pulling out clean, soft, warm, great smelling clothes. The whole house is filled with the clean scent! I even enjoy folding and organizing the clothes, though clearly I’m not finding the time to get it done as often as I would like these days. As you can see the monster has taken up permanent residence on our living room chair!
This week we were thrilled to receive these great Seventh Generation products to review:
I have washed countless loads already including all the kids’ bedding. We are loving using these products! The kids have never been this interested in laundry before…I think it helps that they keep going back to the picture of The Lorax on the packaging. They are dying to see the movie. I read them the book. We’ll have to go on a movie outing soon!
Here are some facts about the Natural 4X Laundry Detergent:
Formula: Seventh Generation’s most technologically-advanced formula yet uses a multiple enzyme system to fight the toughest stains as effectively as conventional brands, without synthetic cleaning ingredients.
• Biodegradable formula
• Hypoallergenic
• Free of optical brighteners, dyes, perfumes and synthetic fragrances
• Non-toxic
• Designed for standard and high-efficiency (HE) machines
• USDA Certified Biobased Product (96%)
Packaging: This powerful 4X formula is packaged in an innovative recyclable (even compostable) bottle, made from 100% recycled fiber. The entire packaging system (fiber bottle, pouch, spout and cap) system uses 66% less plastic than a typical 100 oz. 2X laundry bottle – while delivering the same number of loads. The #4 plastic pouch and #5 cap can be recycled where facilities exist.

Looks like my laundry for sure! Unfortunately I’ve got a pile that big on my bed right now :(.
It gets done, somehow.
