Generation Good_Healthy Baby Home Party_Free Sample Reviews

Hello,

I signed up for the Generation Good Sharing Network community by Seventh Generation which is an awesome place where you have the chance to collaborate with other like-minded individuals in discussions and missions. Through the missions you are asked to share about the community and your experience with the products on your social media outlets and also in person with friends and family. Sometimes the missions offer a free sample to try and then share about while others require sharing with the chance of winning a prize. I definitely suggest you check out the Generation Good Community because it’s a great time.

This time I was selected to participate in the Healthy Baby Home Party that involved receiving a variety of baby products and hosting a party to share with all the parents I know that are either new parents or soon to be parents.

My mama and I sat together one evening and packed up each of the little sample bags for each of his guests to have. This was a super fun process and reminded me of when I was a little girl and would help my mama and grandma pack the Avon booklets and samples to leave on doors. We then hosted our party for all the lovely ladies that we know of that are either new parents or soon to be parents and they were all super appreciative of the great goodies they received. We even received so much stuff that we had several bags left over to share with others who were not able to join the party.

Seventh Generation Disinfectant spray
This disinfectant spray has been working great for uses in both my kitchen as well as by bathroom and a few other areas around the house.  I recently ran out of Clorox wipes for the kitchen so rather than running out to buy more, I thought I would give this disinfectant spray a try and I really like it.  I like the ease of just spraying a bit of the solution and also I like not wasting a whole Clorox wipe for a small wipe down.  The sprayer works nice and gives a good spray, not too wide but just good enough to get a good surface area for cleaning.  This is a great product for providing the peace of mind that my family could eat off the counter tops when I am done cleaning them and without fear of any unintended chemicals getting to my family.  I will certainly be purchasing this product again in the future.

Seventh Generation Free & Clear Dish Soap
This dish soap works pretty well and good enough to get the job done but lets be honest, its no Dawn soap when it comes to cutting grease.  I have been a long time supporter of Dawn soap with their efforts to help save animals in the wild during oil spills and other disasters.  My personal vision on this is that if the product is gentile and safe enough to save animals then it must be good enough for my family. Therefore, I do not feel badly about the chemicals in Dawn products and will continue to use them after I run out of the Seventh Generation dish soap.  Through the Generation Good program, I have received a few opportunities to try the dish soap so I have about 3 or 4 bottles around my house right now and have been using that for a few months.  Another bit of honesty, I have keep a bottle of Dawn on hand for those tricky greasy items that the Seventh Generation soap just can't clean.  This soap suds up well and seems to clean the dishes nicely but it just doesn't do much to cut through the grease.  I would definitely by this again if there is a good deal because it does work good enough but it is certainly not my first choice in dish soap.

Seventh Generation Free & Clear Baby Wipes 
These Seventh Generation baby wipes are awesome, these too I have gotten a few samples of from the Generation Good community and I love them.  I use them for a variety of uses, really everything other than wiping my babies butt since he is quite a bit too old for needing mommy to change him at this point.  I use these wipes for cleaning my kitchen, windshield, and anything that I see that could use a good wipe down.  I also do use these for my sons face on occasion, they are great to keep in the car for moments when we get a little too dirty and need to clean our hands and face or clean up a bit of the car.  These wipes are strong and hold up good to a bit of scrubbing which I also appreciate rather than it falling apart as I wipe.  I would definitely purchase these for use with changing a baby if I were to have another child in the future.

Seventh Generation Diapers 
I have not used these diapers as my son is far past the diaper stage at this point but I have the bag away to another new mother that I am friends with and she was very appreciative.  The diapers appeared to be of good quality and I am sure I would try them if I were to have another child in the future.

Seventh Generation Feminine Hygiene Pads Trial Packs
Each of the sample packs contained 3 pads, 1 Regular Ultra Thin Pad with Wings, 1 Regular Maxi Pad, and 1 Overnight Maxi Pad with wings.  I have used all of these pads and they are pretty good.  Most of all I like the regular ultra thin pads with wings, these are absorbent enough for me and they are thin enough that they are not getting in the way.  I have also used the other two sizes of pads when I have run out of my usual favorites but they both are very thick and feel like I am wearing a diaper.  The thickness of the maxi pads may be good for some but they are just too thick for my needs.  I really only wear pads at night so the thickness is not too much of an issue as I am just going to bed but I prefer a thinner pad usually.  I also liked that these definitely felt all natural.  I often find that my other pads make me itchy whereas these did not cause that at all which was much appreciated.  I would definitely think about purchasing these in the future if there was a good sale or coupon.

Seventh Generation Free & Clear Laundry Soap Samples (1-load) 
This laundry soap works well enough, I do not have a typical laundry soap that I use because we have been receiving so many different samples over the last couple of years but this one was relatively the same as all the others.  It cleaned well and did not really have any scent to it so I was satisfied and my family did not complain about itchy skin which they sometimes do with other laundry soaps.

Orgain Protein Powder - Creamy Chocolate Fudge flavor  
We first received sample packs of this protein powder from a Moms Meet sample program that we participated in about a year ago and we loved these.  They are so tasty and super easy to make and take along for a healthy and filling snack on the go.  We have liked having both the vanilla and chocolate flavors but in this particular sample pack we only received chocolate flavor.
Kids Orgain Shakes 
We first received sample packs of this protein powder from a Moms Meet sample program that we participated in about a year ago and we loved these.  In this sample pack we only received coupons to purchase the kids protein drinks but that was great because we already know we love them.  Here is what we wrote about the previous sample party with these:
"My son and my 16 year old sister absolutely loved the pre made chocolate drinks.  They drank all of them in just a few days and now have been begging for more.  These were great for my sister who is in high school and often does not eat a full meal before or during school so this was a good way for her to get some extra nutrition.  As for my son, I still don't think he really has a need for these but he absolutely loved them and was super cute hiding the last one from his auntie."


Zarbees Gripe Water samples (5ml) 
As my little one is quite a bit older, I did not personally have any use for these but I did give them out to a number of mamas that I know with little babies and hopefully they were able to get some use and some benefit out of this product.  I would certianly be interested in trying this in the future if I were to have another child, my son could have use this when he was a baby for sure.

Schmidt Naturals 
I personally did not try any Schmidt Naturals products nor have I ordered any but they seem nice from what I read on the website and I would suggest checking them out if you are interested.

Pumpspotting app for nursing mothers 
This app looks really cool for nursing mothers.  I do not personally have a need for this right now but I checked out the website and it looks really cool for nursing mothers to connect and share all about the good and the bad about the nursing spots around town.  I would absolutely check this out in the future, and will tell all the new mamas that I know about it.

Once Upon a Farm fruit/veggie snacks
With one of the free coupons that we received I let my 8year old son choose one of the fruit pouches from the cold section near the yogurt. I don’t know if maybe the ones my store had were expired or what but these were absolutely terrible. The look, smell, and taste of the fruit pouch was not good at all. After trying this, I looked again on the website and realized that this company makes both cold fruit pouches as well as baby food pouches that do not need refrigeration. I believe my store may have had the refrigerated ones placed in the warm section for too long before realizing that these needed to be refrigerated and they spoiled while warm. That is the only reason I can think of for these being so terrible. Unfortunately this product may be awesome but due to our really bad first impression I don’t think we will be interested in trying these again in the future.
