Soap Trick!
Posted by Andrea
She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. (Proverbs 31:27)
One of the simple pleasures in the lives of Sugar Plum and Sweet Pea is Kandoo Foaming Hand Soap. For them, there’s just something irresistible, intriguing, and fun about foaming soap that squirts from a colorful frog pump. If I let them, they’d pump a sink full of foam each time they were asked to wash their hands!
Though I am thrilled that they are eager to keep their hands germ free, personally I’m sickened by the soap’s nauseating faux fruit scents and neon colors. Consequently, I was quite happy the morning the girls approached the pump only to find that the foam was finished.
I attempted to reintroduce the girls to the regular soap pump but to no avail. This did not satisfy either of them as liquid soap does not foam and simply smells like soap (gasp!) and not like Magic Melon or Jungle Fruits.
Later that day, as I was refilling my Pampered Chef Suds Pump I realized that I could take the directions listed for refilling the Pampered Chef Pump and apply them to girls’ beloved Kandoo soap pump. Since the Kandoo pump was already equipped with the special foaming mechanism, I was nearly certain it would work. I filled the pump one quarter of the way with liquid soap and filled the rest with water. I primed the pump a few times and was excited to see foaming soap emerge!
This soap trick has made us all happy. For Mommy and Daddy, it’s a real money saver. We don’t need to buy expensive new pumps each time the soap runs out and because we’re filling the pump only a quarter of the way, it makes the liquid soap last much, much, much longer. Sugar Plum and Sweet Pea are just as happy because they can still enjoy foaming hand soap.
