We have been receiving some very important emails and comments from our readers. Thank you! One of the common threads that weave the quilt of letters we get from mamas are letters that show our burning desire to do the best we can, and at the same time an empty feeling that maybe we can’t [...]
It’s Earth Day today! It’s more important than ever that we as parents take action and are a great example for our kids. Everything we dp has an impact on our mother earth. The way we shop, the way we eat, the way we live. It’s important that we do it all as consciously as [...]

Do you know what chemicals are in the most commonly used “sensitive” baby detergent? You may innocently believe you are washing your clothes and making them fresh and clean, but you may actually be loading them up with harsh dangerous toxins such as petroleum, phosphates, sulfates, artificial fragrances and colors, chlorine, etc. My children have [...]
On February 4, 2009 we posted our first version of this article regarding which clothing companies do and do NOT treat their clothing with formaldehyde. We have received quite a few emails from parents on this one, and even some who have shared helpful information with us! Additionally, some companies who did not respond in [...]
It can be overwhelming when you begin to learn about all the toxins that surround your child on a daily basis. We truly believe that making a few small changes will make a profound impact on the short AND long term health and well being of our babies and kids. If you are looking [...]

This Play Hat from Sunday Afternoons is just about the coolest invention in an SPF hat for children that we’ve seen! When it comes to sun protection clothing, it is nice to know what to look for. This Sun Hat carries a 50+ UPF! If a garment has a UPF factor (Ultra Violet Protection Factor) [...]
Simply put, I have not seen a single piece from the Snapper Rock UV50 Collection that I do not absolutely love! We are not left surprised that Snapper Rock Swim Wear is sold only in the finest boutiques and stores around the world. (But no worries, we have their link below!) We live on an [...]
Bleach is often used to brighten, whiten and even disinfect. Just the other day I saw a Clorox commercial advertising bleach as a safe way to disinfect baby bottles, toys and more. Unfortunately, chlorine bleach is a nasty chemical, which should be kept far away from our babies and children’s environments. (Not to mention it’s [...]
Luxurious and cozy soft, this organic cotton bathrobe by Coyuchi is everything you would dream of to wrap up the perfect bubble bath experience for your small child! I feel as if I am treating my toddler to a rich experience of a baby-spa each time I drape her into this ‘wrap of love.’ Not [...]
It would seem that the last place a parent would think to be concerned about finding toxic gas in our child’s environment is in their clothing and bedding, but sure enough, here it is! (And we aren’t talking poopy pants here folks.) We are talking about FORMALDEHYDE. And yes, formaldehyde is probably hiding in some [...]
There is a big debate happening right now regarding the CPSIA’s new laws and regulations regarding toys that will be able to be manufactured after February 2009. A debate AND a good amount of confusion on all the details. For the most part, if you are a small ‘Ma-n-Pa’ company or boutique making products for [...]

Created with low-impact, Azo-free organic dyes and water-based sustainable ink, this shirt is softer and safer for your child and the [...]
If you have a baby that sleeps in Carter’s, Cisco, or Gerber tagless clothing (or know anyone that may), you must read this! ZRecommends was recently investigating the chemical burns (possibly from the dangerous chemical, phthalates), which is in the tagless ink concoction. On October 24, CPSC and Carter’s released an official statement advising parents [...]
Another safe alternative to conventional cotton is bamboo. We’ve heard about the toxic process of bamboo from plant to fiber which can be harmful on the environment. So, we searched for a company that offered a safer, non-toxic processing alternative. We were impressed with Bamboosa’s integrity and had to rave about their baby soft gift [...]
Is it sometimes hard for you too? To give up some of those itsy bitsy outfits that your baby grows out of? Now I am thinking that it is a wonderful thing for another baby to be able to recycle (re-use and reduce) her cute threads too! Most of my baby girl’s clothing is made [...]
