Why Go Green for Baby Gifts?

Today everyone seems interested in saving the earth and going green. Organic has become a marketing buzzword these days. You can easily spot this powerful word on the labels of many products, ranging from food to baby care. Many other products will have the word natural or eco- friendly. Fabric is recycled and upcycled. Chickens are free range and eggs are brown organic or white organic or sometimes just plain natural. However, do you actually know what the term Organic means and how organic products benefit us?

"Many of us already known that food products grown under certified organic conditions benefit our health and our planet better as more sustainable methods are employed. In addition, less chemical fertilizers and more fair trade policies are implemented during such production. However, have you ever wondered about certified organic personal care and home products, such as shampoos, baby diapers made out of organic cotton or even soft toys that we choose for our beloved little ones? Is there a difference between consuming organic and conventional home products?"

Baby's delicate skin and lungs are very vulnerable so it is important to understand what baby' toys, blankets and clothing are made of; and to buy from trusted sources that stand behind their products. It is also important to wash all products in baby certified detergents before using new baby items.

At www.namelynewborns.com we try to offer a selection of baby gifts that are eco-friendly. We embroider many blankets made of 100% cotton. We try to include organic plush toys and blankets from trusted manufacturers like Apple Park and Under the Nile who pride themselves on sustainable organic products free from pesticides. Many of our blankets are made from muslim which is a pure breathable cotton. Angel Dear has a line of beautiful double layered muslim blankets which can be personalized.

Saving the earth is another issue we are always concerned with in our search for beautiful baby blankets and towels. We like to buy baby gifts made in America. We love the blankets produced by In 2 Green , a small company that not only manufacturers their cotton blankets in America, but recycles cotton scraps from t-shirts and uses this yarn to produce their beautiful ec0-friendly blankets.
