Breeze Though Spring Cleaning with Swiffer and Febreze #PGMom

May 2, 2016 by Kathryn 44 Comments

Spring cleaning is definitely not my favourite yearly event, but I must admit that I love the feeling of sitting down in a fresh, sweet-smelling house once the cleaning is done. And even the whole spring cleaning process isn’t as arduous as it once was, since I created an arsenal of P&G cleaning products! Everything from scrubbing floors to dusting fans is quicker and easier…and that means more time to enjoy the sunny weather!

This year, P&G sent me an assortment of some of its newest spring cleaning products so that I could get my house ready for a new season. I pulled out the Swiffer and Febreze products, rolled up my sleeves and got ready to tackle the jobs that mean “goodbye winter” to me!

One of the biggest and most time-consuming spring tasks here in Saskatchewan is packing away winter clothing. We have a huge bin of gloves, scarves, toques and more to keep the whole family toasty when snow is on the ground. But come sunny summer weather, the bin is a major space hog. Add in the snow pants and coats in the closet on top of that, and there’s a lot of gear to be cleaned and packed away! [Read more…]

Let Kids Get Creative When You Say #YesToTheMess with Help From Swiffer #PGMom

April 14, 2016 by Kathryn 102 Comments

If there’s one universal truth I’ve discovered as a mother of boys, it’s that life with boys is messy! From dirt on the floor to pee on the toilet seat, I’ve pretty much resigned myself to dealing with random messes for the rest of my life. But while some messes are just flat-out gross, others are a lot more tolerable. Cleaning up the spilled chocolate from a kitchen baking session or scraps of paper and foam from a marathon crafting spree is worth the effort considering how much fun my boys have making those messes!

Luckily, cleaning up after my boys has become a lot easier since I discovered Swiffer products! From the handy Swiffer Sweeper for floors to the Swiffer 360 Duster for tables, shelves and more, I can say yes to the mess with Swiffer in my corner. Letting my boys make a mess has led to some pretty amazing creations, including large, colourful paintings and delicious kitchen creations. And since I, like 70% of other Canadian parents, believe that making a mess encourages creativity, I appreciate anything that helps me clean up those messes quickly and thoroughly! [Read more…]

Share Your Thoughts on P&G Products with the Rate and Review Program #PGMom

March 31, 2016 by Kathryn 1 Comment

As a P&G Mom, I’ve had the chance to test a lot of products over the years and then share reviews on my website. Some were ones I’ve loved for years. Others were new to me and have become must-haves in my house. And still others were okay, but just didn’t impress me quite as much. But no matter what I think of the products, having the chance to share my thoughts both with P&G and with family, friends and readers is something I’ve always loved.

And now, you can share your thoughts on P&G products too! With the P&G Rate and Review program, Canadians can create reviews of the P&G products that wowed them and the ones that they’re not so crazy about. Just visit PGeveryday.ca and click the Rate and Review button to see a full list of P&G products. Then click on the one you want to review and share your thoughts with the world! Recently I had the chance to review a few popular products myself: Charmin Ultra Strong Bathroom Tissue, Pantene Moisture Renewal haircare and the Swiffer Sweep and Trap. Here are the thoughts I shared in my reviews on the P&G website.

March 26, 2015 by Kathryn 221 Comments

Spring cleaning is not something that I normally enjoy very much, but this year is definitely an exception to that! I’m preparing for a move to Ontario sometime after the summer and that means that not only do I need to do a lot of purging and packing, I also have to ensure that my house is looking its best for potential buyers that stop by!

Still, cleaning has never been one of my favourite things to do and so I’ve developed a few shortcuts for getting my house looking great in a flash. Sometimes a quick trick will help me save time on a cleaning job so that I can get more done!

The New Swiffer Bissell SteamBoost Lets You Clean with the Power of Steam-Giveaway

September 20, 2013 by Kathryn 180 Comments

Since I bought the century-old house that I was raised in, life has been one long renovation. And one of my absolute favourite updates has been replacing the broken kitchen tiles and grungy 35-year-old living room carpet with beautiful new laminate flooring and white tile. Cleaning the floors on the main level used to be one of the jobs I dreaded and now it’s a delight! The Swiffer WetJet is my cleaning tool of choice since it’s lightweight, quick and locks dirt away. But now, a new Swiffer product may just give my WetJet a run for its money!

The Swiffer Bissell SteamBoost is a handy steam mop that powers away dirt using only water to clean! For those that are sensitive about scents in cleaning products or react to chemicals, it’s the perfect solution for sparkling clean floors the natural way. Just fill it with water, attach a disposable steam pad, plug it in and get cleaning! I loved how simple the Swiffer Bissell SteamBoost was to use and the fact that it was still very lightweight and easy to maneuver. And to add a delicious scent to your home, I highly recommend adding a drop or two of your favourite essential oil to the water reservoir. It makes the house smell so clean and fresh!
