October is National Indoor Air Quality Month. Since November is only two days away, we thought we’d throw in at least one more post related to the subject of indoor air quality. But even after November comes, please know that it’s never too late to celebrate.

If you are a parent, GREENGUARD is here to help you celebrate through the rest of this year and into the beginning of 2011 with its “Big Bundle of Joy $10,000 Nursery Giveaway”, a sweepstakes that will help create healthier nurseries with better IAQ. One lucky grand prize winner will receive $10,000 worth of GREENGUARD certified, low-emitting products from from several manufacturers, completely customizing their nursery to protect the health of their baby. Since children are especially vulnerable to respiratory ailments like asthma, the quality of the air they breathe is crucial. GREENGUARD certified products emit lower levels of VOC’s so that your baby is breathing cleaner air.

If you want to ensure the highest level of protection for your baby, visit our post, “Filters For Kids – A Two Part Series, Continued” for other ways to improve the  indoor air quality in your child’s room or nursery.

GREENGUARD is committed to providing healthy indoor air for children outside the home as well. Recently, the GREENGUARD Environmental Institute launched an interactive school indoor air quality tour on its website, to inform parents, students and teachers on the ways in which IAQ impacts health and student performance.
