What You Will Need
• 1 cup water
• 1 cup distilled white vinegar
• Essential oil (lavender or lemon)
• Clean, empty spray bottle
• Measuring jug
Directions
1. Add 1 cup of water to the measuring jug.
2. Add 1 cup of white distilled vinegar to the jug.
3. Add your chosen essential oil scent. (The amount you add is completely down to you, but remember that less is more – especially when creating something that is child-friendly. I recommend using 3-4 drops).
4. Transfer the mixture into a clean and empty spray bottle. You’re now ready to wipe away the dirt and germs from your grandchildren’s favorite toys.
