Kids Shower Curtains

Executive summary about Kids Shower Curtains by Shawn Parker 

When decorating a kids' bathroom, it's easy to pick a fun theme and center the rest of the bathroom décor on Kids Shower Curtains. There are animal prints, alphabet designs, seaside themes and a rainbow of colors to pick from. Kids love bold prints and vibrant colors, so avoid pastels unless they match a theme you already have in place. 

Look carefully at the colors used in the Kids Shower Curtain and incorporate those same colors into the painted walls, tiled backsplash, bathmat, curtains and towels. The idea is to use the Kids Shower Curtain as the center focal point. Avoid clashing colors when choosing Kids Shower Curtains. A pink bathtub can easily sport a shower curtain depicting white bunnies theme.

Go Green in the Kids' Bathroom


Executive summary about a kids' bathroom by Mary Bernard 

Cancer-causing chemicals are often found in popular children's bath products. Going green in the kids' bathroom means using natural products that promote good health. 

Two probable carcinogens; formaldehyde and 1,4-dioxane are often found in popular brands of children's bath products. While not added intentionally to the products, the carcinogens are by-products of chemical processes. 

The Environmental Working Group (EWG) had samples of popular baby products tested by an independent lab and 61% of those products contained both carcinogens. Five Dangerous Kids' Bath Products:

1.     baby shampoo

2.     bubble bath

3.     baby wash

4.     baby lotion

5.     shower products 

How can parents make bath time safer for their kids?

1.     Support the Kid-Safe Chemicals Act, proposed legislation for tighter regulations on                  chemicals in kids' products.

2.     Carefully clean and disinfect the bathroom. 

Because a child could have multiple exposures to formaldehyde and 1,4 dioxane in just one bath, it's important to bathe children in safe products. Going green in the kids' bathroom and nursery means choosing bath products made of natural ingredients and avoiding common brands on many supermarket shelves.
