SteamClip: A Way to Hang Clothing from Shower Rods More Easily

Doctor Plotka’s Mouthwatchers Natural Toothbrush

This Massachusetts-made toothbrush is the top of the line for brushes that come in six-packs. The naturally-antimicrobial bristles are infused with silver to eliminate 99.9 percent of the bacteria growth on the brush within six hours of use.

The long bristles are ten times as thick as a typical toothbrush, and they claim it will last longer.  If you have to use a manual brush, this is a great choice. They also make the Power Soft battery-powered toothbrush. Doctor Plotka’s Mouthwatchers Antimicrobial Floss Bristle Silver Toothbrush, Adult, 6 Pack $23

Bring the Game Bag to the Kid’s Next Soccer Game

The Game Bag, the world’s best stadium blanket, was designed by moms – for moms. The bag itself is a “step into bag” that encompasses the lower two-thirds of your body, protects you from all the elements at any outdoor event, and makes you the envy of all the other spectators!

This is even better than a blanket…you snuggle inside it, and you can also unzip it for a fleece-lined, nylon waterproof cover for the ground. Very good thinking here!    See photo at top.  $59 website
