One of our personal favorite brands of safe cleaning products, Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day, is now offering starter kits that come packaged in cute reusable canvas tote bags. Featuring their new Basil scent, the starter kits include everything you need to, well, get started cleaning or doing laundry naturally.

Not sure about doing your housework with basil-scented cleaners? The other scents in these products include apricot leaves, parsley, and eucalyptus, which combine to make it cool & fresh smelling. Another cool fact: basil is an herb known for it’s nerve-calming effect. That has to sound enticing for any mom cleaning house!

All of the cleaners are great- both of us here at Looking For Penguins use them daily, so we can personally attest to their effectiveness and the peace of mind that comes with knowing you’re using non-toxic products around your kids.

One of their most exciting products is the biodegradable dryer sheets (included in the laundry kit) that are made from paper and only vegetable-derived softening agents. I point that out because traditional dryer sheets are filled with all sorts of nastiness. These sheets, however, soften, reduce static, and, naturally, smell wonderful because of essential oils.

Another great perk of this company? Sign up for their emails (about new products & sales) and they’ll email you a coupon for $5 off a purchase of $25.
