Get Your Kids to Brush Their Teeth

What is it about kids and brushing their teeth? Maybe these toothpaste heads
by Spread Heads are a fun way to promote good dental hygiene. The visual
idea of an animated dog or cat spewing out a bright neon colored gel onto a
toothbrush might have varying degrees of appeal.

Kor Bottles - Thirst for Giving

If you¹re bored of aluminum or glass bottles, try one of these hip, Kor
bottles from the limited edition ³Thirst for Giving² line. They¹re BPA free
and reusable, so you¹ll be doing yourself and the environment good. Plus
they look fantastic and part of the proceeds go to charity!

There has been so much emphasis on drinking sufficient water throughout the
day that water bottles have boomed with popularity, appearing everywhere
from Walmart to your granny¹s car. For a while, just about anyone could be
found toting a plastic bottle‹be it at the gym or strolling through the
mall‹but after researchers did studies on the harmful BPA in these bottles,
glass and aluminum bottles became the next hydration go-tos.

The Kor bottle offers yet another alternative, and a stylish one at that.
Their latest BPA-free reusable water bottles, the ³Thirst for Giving² line,
feature nature-themed graphics in a variety of colors, as seen in the
gallery. The proceeds of this specific collection go toward green
non-profits.
