by , 11/30/11

If you have any new parents on your holiday gift list this season, you know that they are whistling ‘Joy to the World’ over the arrival of their sweet little bundle — even though they’ve gotten nary a ‘silent night’ since his or her debut. But they’ll be singing your praises if you present them with any of the fabulous offerings from our green gift guide for new parents. From eco essentials: cloth diapers, baby bottles, and organic burp cloths, to the best reusable bottle that will keep moms and dads hydrated all the live long day (and night!) while caring for a wee one, to a priceless (yet inexpensive) gift that will rejuvenate and revitalize the whole family, it’s time to pamper and appreciate those new moms and dads in your circle!

PRODUCT REVIEW: Wawabots Personalized Photo Water Bottles

PRODUCT REVIEW: Wawabots Personalized Photo Water Bottles

Stainless steel water bottles have become a common sight these days - much to the joy of those of us who care about the environment, since reusable bottles save plastic, petroleum, and encourage better consumption habits. Because they are everywhere these days, however, the humble stainless steel water bottle is starting to take on a patina of ubiquity / disposability similar to its green product forebearer, the "eco tote" - and this is not a good thing. In order for people to treasure and take good care of their possessions, they need to form an emotional attachment to them - which means an object needs to feel special and unique to its owner. Just when I thought that the practical-but-ubiquitous stainless steel water bottle was perhaps starting to go the route of the eco tote (i.e. stuffed in the closet or collecting dust on the shelf), I discovered Wawabots customized water bottles! Wawabots is a new company that allows a buyer to customize their stainless steel water bottle with a photo of their near-and-dear or a personal graphic.

Are Designer Disposable Diapers an Awesome Fad for Babies or Only Good for Huggies Bottom Line?

Are Designer Disposable Diapers an Awesome Fad for Babies or Only Good for Huggies Bottom Line?

This season Huggies is rolling out some designer disposable diapers at Walmart stores nationwide. Parents will be able to diaper their little one’s behind in a limited edition camouflage design or a diaper meant to resemble actual denim jeans. The denim diapers aren’t a new fad. These actually hit the baby diaper scene last year and were a big hit. So big in fact, that Huggies sold 60 million of them. There’s more than just style to the new Huggies Camo Diapers as well. For each pack purchased, Huggies Every Little Bottom program will be donating diapers to military families (up to 500,000 diapers total). It’s nice that a disposable diaper company is giving back, but it’s hard to ignore the crowded landfills and the other cons that come along with disposable designer diapers.

What do you think of designer disposable diapers?

  • 21 Votes I think it's a way for companies to charge parents more money and I won't buy them.
  • 8 Votes I think they're adorable. Babies deserve cute disposable diapers.
  • 80 Votes To heck with disposables - we use reusable cloth diapers.

7 Green Toy and Clothing Companies That Give Back

7 Green Toy and Clothing Companies That Give Back

Buying new clothes and toys for babies and toddlers can be slightly overwhelming, even if you subtract all the shiny paints and talking electronic gadgets that most green parents avoid. Sure, those tiny tutus look adorable, but fast-growing kids seem to burst out them within days, and the toy that they were pining for on Monday is already lost in the toy chest by the weekend. While buying secondhand or doing clothing swaps are a great way to expand your kids’ wardrobes and toy collections, there are some great green companies to consider when buying new. Shelling out all that dough for new gear feels a little better when you know that the company is committed to giving back. Here are seven companies whose missions include benefiting a charity, striving for the highest in ethical and sustainable standards in production, and building communities, both here and across the globe.
