Gisele Bundchen finds cleaning "therapeutic". The Brazilian beauty, who has 12-month-old son Benjamin with husband Tom Brady, and helps care for his 3-year-old son Jack, claims since becoming a mother, one of her favorite things to do is to tidy her house.

"I love it. Cleaning the house is actually very therapeutic for me," she said. "Becoming a parent has given me a whole new perspective on life. I can't put into words how much I love it."

Gisele has recently been working on her own animated web series, "Gisele and the Green Team", which is designed to promote environmental awareness, something which is important to the 30-year-old supermodel, who strives to be as green as possible in her own life. She explained to ParentDish, "We are building a home in Los Angeles and for light we bought hydrogen light bulbs because they use less electricity and last longer."

"We have solar panels, we are using recycled wood so we are not cutting down new trees. Our house in Costa Rica is powered by solar panels and wind. We have a water collection system since it rains anywhere between four and five months out of the year. I gave Benjamin toys from his older brother Jack as opposed to buying all new toys and creating more waste. Hand me downs work well in this case."
