The Evian Roller Babies are getting a lot of attention but so is bottled water and its impact on the environment. The reality is the plastic bottles it is sold in end up filling up our landfills and taking decades to decompose.
Teach your kids the value of enjoying regular tap water. If they don't like the taste of your tap water or you are concerned about its contents, here's something new you might want to consider as an alternative to bottled water.
The Clear2Go™ water bottle (shown below) provides clean, filtered water straight from the tap. According to the company website using the bottle saves hundreds of dollars vs. bottled water and keeps up to 757 half-liter bottles out of our landfills.
The Clear2Go bottle looks like a standard water bottle but it has a twist. The bottle comes with a replaceable filter, which is good for up to 100 gallons of water or the equivalent of 640 20-ounce water bottle. The bottle and filter packages are available for less than $25.
The bottle might make a nice back-to-school gift for your kids and it is a great way to introduce them to the concept that they don't need to buy bottled water to quench their thirst.
