So you want a canvas or two for baby's room, and you're trying to figure out something bright and colorful, with animals, that doesn't look like the circus threw up on your walls. Leave it to Tiny Decor to find just the right mix of mod …
I've proclaimed my disdain for bibs so many times that it would only make sense that my third baby would be the drooliest of them all. Seriously, it's like a tiny river flowing down her chin. So I'm sorry to say that bibs have become a r…
Whether you've got kids with sensitive skin, or you're just not into dealing with the chemical processes that even the regular 100% cotton clothes go through, then it's nice to know that you've got lots of eco-friendly kids' clothing opt…

It's no trouble finding a range of organic onesies bedecked with humorous sayings and adorable designs these days. But I'm a fan of the solid, slogan-free organic play clothes as well, which can be a little harder to track down unless yo…
I am still regretting (just a wee bit) giving away the beautiful Kice Kice dress I had in my hands last spring to a CMP readers. With that on the brain, I checked the site to see if they had anything going on for the season or whether I'…
Recently I wanted to make cookies for my girls but I was too tired to start from scratch. I grabbed a thing of that refrigerated cookie dough that I remember eating raw in my college days and figured it would be fine in a pinch. Oh man, …
All three of my kids totally dig toy animals. Even the baby happily bangs the horse and cow and pig against the roof of our wooden play barn. It's pretty easy to see that a bunch of new animal figurines would make fantastic stocking stuf…
It's not hard finding a handmade baby blanket these days, and we most certainly have our favorites. But one made completely in the USA from organic fibers using decidedly "green" practices? Well, that's just a bit harder to come by. Not …
My daughter loves cooking with me. Loves it. And, while a mother/daughter cooking extravaganza might sound good in theory, the reality is actually quite messy. So I was intrigued by the many promises of Zebra Mix . These brownie, cupcake…
The Indigenous Harvest Dress is definitely a misleading name. It sounds like something you'd see in in a museum gift shop, but in reality, it's a fantastic fall/winter wardrobe staple for little girls who are indigenous to pretty much an…
The recent proliferation of organic stuffed animals makes me feel all warm and fuzzy, but the story behind these latest creations is one that really shines. Since 1992, Maggie's Organics has been making cozy clothing that's both environm…
Now that I'm a nutrition-obsessed mom, I get where those raisin people were coming from that I made fun of when I was trick or treating as a kid. They didn't plan on being the lamest house on the block (although they were), but it sure i…
Look, it can be really hard to suss out which mainstream household cleaners and personal items are better for you and your family than others. Unless you're willing to just beat your laundry on some river rocks and brush your teeth with …
I am staring at the spectacular Bathtime Wrap from Beverly Hills-based Petite Miette and once again I am smacking myself on the head and thinking now why did I not think of this first? Instead of wrapping a baby up in a cumbersome bathro…
Last year, I was instantly smitten with the bright, super cool graphic organic shirts from mom-owned Fierce Hugs , so when I found out they added a new line from Dutch artist Dagmar Meinders, I was willing to bet money on their awesomene…
While I can't say I'm educated on Eastern principles of living, I'm all for anything that helps me continue to integrate organic practices and principles into my daily parenting ritual. Thus is the case with My Little Pakora . This mom-o…
I am definitely, undoubtedly, google-ably on the record as having some issues with expensive toddler jeans. I was never quite sure why you'd shell out $110 on some mass produced, made-in-China jeans just because it had a name brand label…
Either some people believed I actually needed twenty pink sleepers, or I got a whole lot of baby gifts that reflected the taste of the giver more than my actual needs. My favorite gifts by far were the little-of-this, little-of-that kind…
My husband is totally willing to wear the baby, so long as it doesn't require a mei tai (too many straps) or a sling (too uncomfy on his bad shoulder). That basically leaves him with our Belle Baby Carrier , which is both easy to use and…
There is no shame in cooking with baking mixes or prepared foods, although I have a pretty stringent list of criteria for them to make it into my shopping cart. I am delighted to discover that the Monkey Bread mixes from Lollipop Tree pa…
I'm doing my best to teach my daughter as many preschooler friendly environmental practices as I possibly can. And while she's become almost militant about making sure to turn off the water while she brushes her teeth, I'm betting there …
Question: Does the world really need more cute baby t-shirts? Answer: If those shirts are made from organic cotton, colored with organic dyes, tag-free, and ubercute, then absolutely . CMP fave Baby in a Blanket 's latest offering are ju…
It's the invasion of the eco-bags! They're flooding the market and the truth is, as long as they keep being cute, we're going to keep posting about them. The latest entry: BYOB from two ever eco-consicous women up in Vancouver, Canada. T…
I love local flea markets and craft fairs, provided the cool stuff outnumbers the lucite "keepsakes" and fell-off-a-truck tube socks by 3:1. Last year on a jaunt through the Ybor city market in Tampa the sigOth came across the wonderful …
