Cleaning Toddler Toys

 If you have been following my posts, you know my daughter was sick last week. I did not want her playing with her toys again until we could get them clean! The worst thing you can do is get sick a week later...Right or get your other family members sick! I know my daughter has a tea set that she often pretends to drink milk out of. I did not want to clean her toys with something I did not want her to get in her mouth. If you have a dishwasher, then you are in LUCK! Toss your child's plastic toys on the top wrack and run them through and your done! I on the other hand, do not have a dishwasher (YET) so I had to used the good ole sink!

 I put all her toys in the sink and turned the water on its hottest setting. Added a squirt of dawn dish soap and a 1/3 a cup of Vinegar! Let it soak in a toy bath for an hour. Rinse and let dry in the dish wrack! Now I do not have to worry that she might get bleach or something awful in her mouth! And NO her toys do not smell like vinegar! If you want to go the extra step (which I plan on doing next time) add a few drops of your favorite essential oil!
