I am taking the PURELL Advanced 30-Day Challenge! #PURELL30

*This is a sponsored post with Mom it Forward Blogging Network and Purell. All opinions are my own and not swayed by outside sources.*

Purell9 days ago, we welcomed Baby Taylor into our lives. She is an unbelievable baby and I really adapted well to life with three kids. My only problem is, my kids constantly love to touch and snuggle her, just like mommy does. While this is fine, they are 3 and almost 6, and they tend to have dirty hands all the time. Between eating constantly and playing outside, I fear all the germs on their hands. Then they come into the house and begin touching her. However, I quickly learned my lesson and now store PURELL in just about every facet all over my house. I have been a fanatic of PURELL long before my kids were born, but with newborn babies, I am totally obsessed with PURELL. You should see my house-we probably have around 15 PURELL bottles all over! Yes I am totally PURELL obsessed but with great reason!

While I try to get them to wash their hands every time they come inside, it is just not feasible at times. This is specially true on those days we are out and about, and there is no water washing to be seen. This never is a problem anymore since I keep the PURELL 1 oz. JELLY WRAP carriers always hanging from my diaper bag. Now I don’t even need to fetch in my diaper bag to get the PURELL- it is simply hanging from my diaper bag. Ingenious if you ask me! So, when soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer, like PURELL, that contains as least 60% alcohol. If hands are visibly dirty, it’s always best to clean them with soap and water, but the new PURELL Advanced Sanitizing Wipes can now help remove dirt and eliminate germs.  I love how they are making PURELL in so many different forms including the awesome 8 fl. oz pump, the 2 fl oz. personal pump, the 1 fl oz. Jelly Wrap Carrier, and the 15- Count Sanitizing Wipes.DSC_0555

Scientific outcome studies provide evidence that hand hygiene, including the use of an alcohol-based hand sanitizer like PURELL, reduces our risk of getting sick. I find this very true in that my kids are hardly getting sick as much as they were, prior to using PURELL. I might be PURELL obsessed but it is with good reason. If I can keep them from picking up dirty germs and keep their baby sister healthy, it is a win-win for me! It is also very easy for them to use the PURELL pump themselves and they are in a regular routine of putting on PURELL anytime they eat or go outside. It is also interesting to note the following fact: A recent study conducted by the makers of PURELL demonstrated that the use of an alcohol-based hand sanitizer can significantly reduce the transfer of a virus to the hands, and prevent germ transfer via commonly touched surfaces within the household.DSC_0557

    We go through LOTS of Purell in our house, too. With 2 dirty & germy little boys, we need it.

    Great incentive to use Purell! I carry little bottles around too. One in my car, another in my office and we even have refillable dispensers throughout our office building.

    Just remember that after using hand sanitizer 3 times the next time needs to be an actual washing of the hands (or so I’ve heard).

    We got through buckets of this stuff! Love it for my daughter before she touches my newborn!

    That’s a good idea to use Purell before handling the baby. Kids are always passing things to each other. A safeguard is a good thing.

    I know my Mom carries this with her where ever she goes–91 year olds are as sensitive to germs as new borns! I should probably get into the habit of carrying it around as well!

    I really like that they have so many different formats. The hanging one looks really easy to use. My daughter has her hands always dirty. Have no idea how she manages it.

    I volunteer at the aquarium and there’s lots of reasons to use hand sanitizer there. Thanks for sharing their challenge.

    I used to carry that big bottle around with me everywhere when my daughter was born. Eventually people would squirt before even asking to hold her. haha

    We use a lot of Purell especially during the winter months. An essential for any household!
