You didn’t sleep nearly this well in college. The Natural Rubber Crib Mattress ($399.95) is crafted from a 6” core made of natural rubber, and surrounded by enough layers of natural wool to make a Gordita. As a result, the mattress molds itself to your baby’s body. (Kind of like your ass groove on the couch.) Of course, it’s free of all toxins and chemicals, too. Buy it now, but remember – you’re buying it for baby, not you.
Creativity starts here. The Ecotots Art Time Easel ($155) is tough and sharp. It’s made of Forest Stewardship Council Certified SmartWood for the best in environmentally sound design. And it’s three leg design stands up to any form of creative musings. Choose from Fire, Leaf, Cocoa or Clear, and get started on those art school applications.
It’s not really that we want babies to burp and drool, but with the Peanut Organic Burpcloth & Bib Set from Kee-Ka ($25), it’s just so damn cute! And this set can handle it, being made of 100% Organic Certified cotton and featuring Velcro closures and total machine wash and dry toughness. If daddy burped and drooled with this set, we’d be worried. But you’ll love having it for your wee one.
Hey, they’re only baby twins once. You can get away with obnoxiously cute. Start with this Organic Twin Gift Set. ($45) It’s got an adorable “Perfect Pair” Pear (get it?!) motif on matching certified 100% Organic Cotton onesies. And in addition to maximum cuteness and maximum eco-friendliness, the nickel free snaps add maximum ease at dressing and changing time. You’ll probably never have twins again. Milk them for all they’re worth!
Give this Newborn Baby Gift Set ($112) to your favorite proud new parents and you’ll never have to buy dinner again. This 7-piece set has all you need: top and bottom, booties, hat, bib, towel and teddy, all made of Egyptian organic cotton. (This, as you know from this site, is the softest in the world.) It’s soft and sweet, and the ultimate surprise gift.
Keep baby next to your heart (or tum) with this precious Organc Cotton Sling from Pottery Barn Kids. ($34.99) It’s made from 100% Organic cotton fiber for strength and softness. Adjusts from 30” to 42” chest size and keep your wee one attached at the hip always.
So, how much are diapers going for these days? And you need how many a day? Get off that crazy cycle and step up to the Organic Baby Cloth Diaper ($15). It’s made of 100% Demeter Certified Organic Egyptian Cotton, the mack-daddy of cottons. It’s more absorbent, more durable and softer, and it gets softer with every wash. And best of all, you’ll never have to buy diapers again. It won’t make you enjoy diaper blow-outs, exactly, but it will make them easier for all involved.
It’s never too early to introduce baby to product. Start with the babecology Gift Set ($41.40). It’s loaded with diaper balm (not so good for their adult life, but good for you now), serenity balm, shampoo, body wash and baby oil. It’s an early taste of luxe for baby, and a welcome break from the smell of diaper blow-out for you.
You can turn your baby into an elf for any occasion with the Organic Cotton Perfect Red Baby Gift Set. ($46.50) It’s 100% organic cotton dyed with environmentally friendly dyes. Wrap-me-body onesie, elf pants and red hat soft doll mean an adorable fashion show anytime. Just don’t do it too often. This set only runs to six months. After that, cute becomes traumatizing.
Sure, your kids love to color. But do you really wanting them coloring with some synthetic wax-sticks that were probably manufactured along the Jersey Turnpike? Go natural with the Twig Crayons set. ($150) These 60 crayons, 5 each of 12 colors, are completely natural, as they’re harvested from sustainable forest areas in Poland. And the big guys sure don’t provide a gorgeous birch wishing-well holder, like this set has. Encourage natural, clean creativity with Twig Crayons. The planet, and maybe eventually Sotheby’s, will thank you for it.
