I had the privilege of contributing to the Healthy Child Healthy World Splendor in the Grass Blog Carnival. My blog post, Shoes Off at the Door Please, was among several other blog posts discussing how we can protect children from toxic chemicals in the great outdoors. The Carnival was created as part of a continual effort by Healthy Child Healthy World to help inspire a movement to protect children from harmful chemicals.

So many great ideas and topics were covered by some incredible bloggers. See how to have a safe lawn, what sunscreens and bug repellents are safe, how to have your very own organic eggs and much more. Check em’ out
