Yipes! Hand & Face Cleaning Wipes

As NYC parents, we’re well aware of how much energy our kids have — after all, we’re the ones chasing after them all day! And after being cooped up for so long at home, our kiddos are ready to run around outside, bury themselves in sand at the beach, dig in the dirt in search of little creatures at the playground, and hop on the rides at opening amusement parks. We want our kids to be able to do all of these things and more, but above all, we want to keep them healthy, safe, and clean. That’s why, when we heard about Yipes! Hand & Face Cleaning Wipes, a brand-new product that gently and effectively removes dirt, we knew we had to share.

Psst…scroll down to the bottom for a special offer on Yipes! for your kids!

First and foremost, Yipes! are designed specifically for kids. We love how Yipes! puts our kids at the focus of their product, with the goal of fostering a culture of hygiene. Yes, there are many wipes out there that will get the job done, but how many of them also strive to teach our children about cleanliness in a fun, approachable, and kid-friendly way? That’s right — there’s even a children’s book to go along with it: Yolanda the Yak! In this illustrated board book, Yolanda the fun, furry yak tells readers about all the ins and outs of why clean hands are a must (in a rhyming, amusing, and hilarious approach of course!).

How else does Yipes! keep our little ones in mind with their product? Glad you asked, because these wipes have been tested by kids, which means that they had a voice in designing Yipes!. After testing the wipes, kids shared that they are easy to open (no more asking mom & dad to open it for them!), feel good on the skin, and are fun to use — they really got a kick out of Yolanda the yak.

NYC kids are always on the move, from school to after-school activities to camp in the summer and everything in between. With our on-the-go lifestyles, hand sanitizer is convenient, but it doesn’t always suffice, because it won’t remove the dirt, mud, or sticky stuff, and it can really dry out our kids’ skin. That’s where Yipes! comes in, making cleanliness convenient and safe so that our kids will feel great anywhere they go, and we can feel confidently prepared as parents for whatever sticky (quite literally) situation our kids might get themselves into.

Ghostlight Theater Camp

<p>Ghostlight Theater Camp is a summer theater camp for campers ages 9-17. Providing 10-day, 3-week, and 6-week programs that combine high-caliber theater training with a traditional summer camp experience. </p> <p>Working with Broadway artists both in classes and in productions, campers will have access to skill development, mentorships, and lifelong connections that will follow them beyond camp. Ghostlight focuses on ensemble theatre values and practicies that support individuality and self-expression in the context of community. This means that no camper at Ghostlight is in the back row or sitting on the side. Each day brings multiple opportunities to perform and create with fellow campers in an environment filled with support. </p> <p>When not making theater, campers can enjoy the benefits of a summer camp in Maine that no other theater camp offers. Stargazing in a hammock, walks in the woods, downtime by the pool, and quiet time reading in the Gazebos with the sound of wind all around are some of highlights of a summer unplugged and away from screens. </p> <p>Finally, the most meaningful and lasting gift of a summer at Ghostlight is the friendships made that last a lifetime. Though the love of theater brings us together, and the work we do stands out from other experiences, the community focus of Ghostlight Theater Camp is why we hear, year after year, that campers cannot wait to return. </p>
