My Thoughts:

I received 16 different individually wrapped toothbrushes 4 x-soft, 4 hard, 4 soft and 4 Kids x-soft.

I myself am more partial to the harder bristle toothbrushes because I don't feel like my teeth are fully clean when I use the softer bristles. However, when using these toothbrushes I did feel like the softer bristles got my teeth a bit cleaner than other soft bristle brands I have used in the past.

Each toothbrush was individually wrapped so it made it easier to store the other brushes for later use. I unwrapped one of each type of bristle so that you can see. They come in different colors so you can pick and choose which one best fits your personality!! The different colors I received were Purple, Red, Pink, and Blue for the adult toothbrushes. The children's brushes came in Blue, Green, Yellow, and Red.

Each toothbrush has a grip section on the front to make it easier when brushing one's teeth. My fingers didn't slide nearly as much as they would have if they had not been there. My fingers did slip some when they got wet but I had no difficulty brushing my teeth.

You can see in this picture how the bristles differ from my regular toothbrush as far as the flatness of it. You can also see the many gaps in my normal toothbrush where there are no bristles at all. The bristles on the old fashioned toothbrush are the same length as the longest bristles on my regular toothbrush and leave no gaps where bristles are missing. This shows me that the old fashion toothbrush has more bristles to clean my teeth then a newer, more expensive style toothbrush.

All in all, I find that the Old Fashion Toothbrush has a higher standard of cleaning power even when it is the more simple of products. They have more of a variety of colors to choose from then what I get at the store at the store and they are less expensive than the more modern style toothbrush!

Outdoor Summer Fun with #PlayfulTrends

IPEMA Voice of play Website

#PlayfulTrends

Now that the kids are out of school, what are your plans for the summer? Keeping children and adults active during down time is especially hard during the summer. No one wants to get out in the heat and it's just more convenient to sit around and play on electronic devices.

Did you know that getting out for just an hour a day can give you the vitamin D that your body needs to stay healthy! 

Getting out of the house on a daily basis to do fun activities benefits your mind and your body! I have some great ideas that are free and can be fun, educational and gives you the opportunity to spend time as a family!

1. Geaocaching! You may have heard of it and some are wondering, "What the heck is Geocaching?" Geocaching is a fun, educational treasure hunt that you can do as an adult or with your children! You can download the Geocaching app on Google play.  It's an interactive seek and find game that you do in real life. This is a free download and free to use.

My son and I have gone on several Geocaching adventures together. There are different levels of adventures you can take. Some are pretty easy finds and some are a bit harder and take more time. Be careful on some, they can be tricky and like this find...was up in a tree! 

How to start! To start a geocache, simply go to your app or the website and type in your city or zip code and a list of different Geocaches will come up. Select the adventure you want to go on and start your search. While on the adventure, look at your surrounding area and see if there is something educational around. Have a conversation about what different plants you see or landmarks that are around. Make it fun and learn something while your out. Keeps those minds as active as the body!

Now some of the Geocaches have surprises when you find them. My son and I went to one and found a traceable trinket. Now what you do with these is when you log your find, you'll also log the traceable code so when you make your next find, you can drop it off for someone else to discover. We had found a small hockey puck in Virginia and went for a trip to California and dropped it off there! It's goal is to go to every city with an NHL team. We dropped it off near the Shark Stadium!

You can learn more about Geocaching on the website.

2. Get out and have a picnic! 

Spending time as a family doesn't have to cost anything. One can simply pack up the car and go to the park or even just have a family day in the yard! Making sandwiches and grabbing some drinks and going outside together brings you closer and gets you out of the house for something fun! 

3. Go Swimming!

There are a lot of free places that you can go swimming in any area. Grab the kids and go to the beach! 

 4. Go to the Farm!

If you have a petting zoo or farm in your area call and set up a time that you can bring the kids out to learn about animals. Most places are free of charge or you can ask a local farmer if they would be willing to let you bring the kiddos to learn about the different animals.

These are just a few activities that we have done this summer! I hope that you can get out and get active with your kids, learn something new and just have fun outside! Don't be stuck in the house wondering why your bored, get out and have a little adventure!

Don't forget to check out the IPEMA website for more great ideas and fun stuff you can do this summer with #PlayfulTrends! Challenge yourself to be more active!

About DECEMBER BOYS:
The Story:Jay Porter, the newest employee at NorthEastern Insurance in New Hampshire, is investigating an accident claim when he learns the teenager behind the wheel was arrested for minor drug possession and sentenced to a hardcore behavioral modification center. At the county courthouse, Jay meets Nicki, a young college intern, who tips him off to a possible scandal—first-time juvenile offenders being shipped to private institutions for political kickbacks. He learns that long-time family nemeses, Adam and Michael Lombardi, may have a stake in the scheme. Is Jay’s mission to help these kids a legitimate crusade? Or is his thirst for revenge driven by the guilt he feels over his own junkie brother’s death? These questions conspire to tear apart tranquility and drive a wedge between Jay and his wife Jenny. With help from new friend Nicki, and a couple of old friends, Jay finds himself thrust back into a past he had hoped to leave behind, putting everything—and everyone he loves—at risk in pursuit of the truth.

Joe Clifford writes from experience. He spent a decade on the streets before getting back on track to make writing his life. He is the award-winning author of Choice Cuts, Wake the Undertaker, and Junkie Love. Clifford lives in California with his wife, Justine, and their sons.
