Organic Baby Gifts-The Smart Choice in 2011 For a New Baby
Organic Baby Gifts-The Smart Choice in 2011 For a New Baby
Organic baby gifts are a smart, sensitive choice of gift to present to the proud parent of a new born. A popular choice if you decide on an eco-friendly gift is a cloth diaper. Cloth diapers were the only form of diaper up to the invention of the disposable diaper and the subsequent explosion in growth of disposable diapers.
But the very disposable nature of those diapers have led to an increased problem in actually disposing of the soiled diapers and the knock on effect on landfills or other methods of garbage disposal.
There is no doubt that the convenience of disposable diapers is the biggest attraction and stories from parents and grandparents of the constant drudgery of washing cloth diapers may cause you some concern as to the reaction you may get in giving cloth diapers as a baby gift.
However cloth diapers have moved on with the times and the increasing awareness of the need to take care of our environment. And it is amazing how quickly the parent will become accustomed to washing them in the normal run of the mill washing that goes on in the home.
Remember that the modern washing machine means that unlike our grandparents the task of washing them is not nearly as bad as doing so by hand as many were forced to do before washing machines became a mass product and affordable to all.
When giving diapers as a baby gift ensure that you remember to include pail liners, a diaper pail and diaper pins.
Other great organic baby gifts include organic baby clothing, bedding, crib sheets and onsies. All of these products will be made from some form of cotton which has been organically grown.
There are many other types of organic gift which are entirely appropriate for a baby shower and the thought that you exhibit in presenting such products to the proud mum and baby will mark you out as someone who actually cares..cares about their friends and cares about the environment in which we all have to live and in which the new baby will grow up in.
Organic products have come down in price significantly in the last few years with the increasing concern about our planet and an increasing awareness of manufacturers that this is a growing market.
