My 4 Simple Tips for Minimizing Household Waste #SCJZeroWaste

December 1, 2015 by Kathryn 103 Comments

I’m pretty proud of the minimal waste our family of four produces, but I’m always looking for ways that we can throw out even less and minimize our impact on the environment. A few weeks ago, I committed to taking part in the #SCJZeroWaste Challenge to see if I could cut down on the waste my family produces. While we didn’t manage to completely eliminate garbage, we did manage to cut it in half with ease! These are the four ways we minimized our household waste.

Composting

Living in an apartment, composting wasn’t really an option for us until recently. Luckily, we’ve since upgraded to a townhouse with a back yard, so putting a little bin in the back for organic waste was a simple and useful way to minimize our garbage.

Start Your Child’s Collection of Trashies with the Trash Pack Garbage Truck

They’re dirty. They’re gross. And they’re one of the hottest toys of the holiday season! If your child has been begging you for Trash Pack toys, you’re not alone! These adorably grimy figurines and play sets have become a hit with children of all ages!

Zackary, like so many other kids, has become fascinated by the cute collectibles with icky names like Mucky Maggot and Putrid Pizza. The Trash Pack Garbage Truck is a great way to start off the Trash Pack collection since it features an interactive game and a couple of Trashies characters to start a child’s collection.

My favourite feature of this particular set was that it incorporates a fun stack and topple activity. The truck opens up so that a child can stack the little Trash Pack garbage cans inside. Then the Trashies can be loaded into the special large wheelie bin and launched through the air to knock down the garbage cans. Zackary couldn’t get enough of it! [Read more…]
