Green Toys My First Red Tug Boat

The calendar might show that summer is almost over, but it sure doesn't feel that way. Some parts of the country are breaking heat records. One way to cool off your baby is a nice bath. Babies love baths and it is a great way for you to bond as well. You can keep your baby busy in the tub with cool toys like My First Red Tug Boat. You can also use it as a pool toy. It's fun for babies, but I think its best feature is that it is made right here in the USA from recycled milk jugs.

Cloth Diapers are good for your baby and the earth

Cloth diapers are making a comeback. Don't worry; cloth diapers have come a long way since the days of cotton cloth and pins. There are many manufacturers and styles to choose from. Sites like KellysCloset.com can help guide you through the process of picking a set that's right for you. You can shop a variety of manufacturers and even purchase an entire supply from the site if you find what you are looking for. Don't let the start up costs scare you. Packages might start at the mid $300 range, but that's nothing compared to the cost of disposables over a year. What's more, you can feel confident that you are not contributing to the tens of millions of disposable diapers that end up in landfills every year. You will be saving a bundle and the earth at the same time. I bet your little one will be so proud of you.
