September 10 by Steph (MPMK Founder)

The Best resources for living a healthier life as a family - SO MANY great finds here!!

Image Credit: © Suzette at www.suzette.nu | here & here | CC by 2.0 When I first started this little blog of mine, I never thought I’d be posting on health. In fact, when the idea first started to germinate, I thought MPMK would be all about home design. Boy, have times changed! It didn’t take much time being a mother before my priorities started to change – big time. Don’t get me wrong, I still love a beautiful room and a clever decor DIY (especially around the holidays), but these … [Read more...]

Eco-friendly Re-usable Cleaning Cloths

March 5 by Kaley

We used to go through so many paper towels at our house. We feel much better about using these reusable kits and the kiddos had a great time making them with me - super simple.

I love the convenience of the disinfecting wipes that come in the nice little packages. But I don't like the chemicals that come in them, the waste that they produce, or the cost. Especially when my little ones are using them. Thankfully, the DIY versions are super easy to make and may even encourage the kids to help with the clean up. … [Read more...]
