So in one of those cosmic coincidences, directly after I'd refilled the wipe container with a package of Elements Naturals biodegradable baby wipes, my son felt moved to present them -- and me -- with a major test.
Color me shocked, but these wipes do what I never believed the eco-friendlier wipes could do. Not only are Elements Naturals baby wipes compostable and made from renewable, plant-based materials, they're full-sized, soft and absorbent. It goes without saying that they're going to cost more than most baby wipes -- an 80-count package retails for $5.95. But if you're feeling guilty about using disposable dipes, at least you can feel good about using these wipes. Call them a justifiable indulgence. -Julie
