Of course, I wish my entire life was organic, but there are still a few things that we can't really afford to buy organically.

Aside from the stuff we are suing up, I am trying to use items that are 1. ecofriendly just the same as if I was consuming them and 2. free. Acorns, leaves, small sticks, wood chips, sand, salt, dried corn (so the chickens can have it when we are done), etc. <br /><br />And yes, whatever is in the sensory bins, ends up in their mouth... My almost 3 year still does it, edible or not. They still have that oral fixation.

I mean...I always wonder about the sensory bin too. I mean, does it matter if they're not going to eat it if they have their hands all over it & then their hands in their mouths? Or not? Right now I just "play flour" and "play salt" so I don't spend the money on stuff that we're not going to be eating anyway, but I always wonder.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10439582294571462742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1180129611594275289.post-53068140962698952622014-03-19T18:45:08.779-04:002014-03-19T18:45:08.779-04:00Great post and you brought out some really good po...Great post and you brought out some really good points.

We are all a different places in this process. It can be difficult or an adjustment at first for even the small things, much less EVERYTHING. It sounds like you do a lot more organic than we do. We are trying but still have so far to go.
