• a mothering magic trick


    When I think of all the hats we mothers assume each and every day–cook, laundress, chauffeur, playmate…the list is endless–I forget that magician is sometimes part of the job description. Why is it that kids will do just about anything if you turn it into a game? (At clean-up time in our house, we call it a “picking up party”…) So as the new school year gets underway, I feel as though I must stand on my head for my 5-year-old to get ready. What I don’t need to coax her into doing, luckily, is slathering on some lotion after bathtime. I can’t figure out if it’s the cool name or the great smell, but eco.kid’s Potion Lotion does the trick. This lotion for kids ages 3-12 is made from the good stuff: natural plant extracts, aloe vera, coconut and wheat. Earlier this summer, we reviewed eco.kid’s Bug-a-Bug insect repellent, and lauded it for its organic ingredients and delicious scent. Same goes for Potion Lotion. With the weather quickly changing to fall-like temps, what kid can’t benefit from a little extra TLC on her post-summer skin?

    In a Nutshell: No need to pull a rabbit out of your mom; your kid will go for this lotion.
