Toothbrushes are a big, um, target for us at Target. I so many Elmo, Dora, My Little Pony, you name it, if it comes on a plastic toothbrush it sits in the bathroom cup. But when I found the Preserve Junior toothbrush by Recycline, I realized it was time for a change. The Preserve Junior is ergonomic, with soft bristles, and made from 100% recycled plastic - specifically, Stonyfield Farms yogurt cups. The toothbrushes come in packs of four, but if you order through them, you can have one mailed to you every two, three, or four months, so you can actually remember to change your child’s toothbrush. Plus, mail it back to them in a postage-paid recycled mailer (of course) when you’re finished, and they’ll recycle it again for you! Talk about circle of life…

As a fun bonus, each brush features a fun fact about one of three endangered animals: the Karner Blue Butterfly, the Utah Prairie Dog or the Grizzly Bear. A portion of Preserve Junior toothbrush sales goes to the National Wildlife Federation. Find Preserve toothbrushes for you and your kids at teensygreen’s EcoShop!
