2. TOP GREEN BABY TIPS
• CHOOSE THE RIGHT DIAPERS
• Studies are divided on the subject of
environmental impact of disposables vs. cloth.
• Knowing that your baby will use approx 6000
diapers before toilet training, and that
disposable diapers take 200-500 years to
decompose, this is certainly a key issue to
ponder.
• Washing cloth diapers takes water and energy,
but it’s a great way to avoid chemicals.

3. One study has found that home
_washing cloth diapers has only
53 percent of the ecological
footprint of disposables, and if
you use a diaper laundering
service that impact is halved
again.

4. Reusable diapers are not what they used to be
and the days of diaper pins are all but buy
gone.
Go for fitted cloth diapers with Velcro or snap
closures for convenience, made from an
eco_friendly material such as hemp, bamboo,
or organic cotton. Use an organic wool cover
that is both warm and breathable, minimizing
diaper rash and cold bottoms at night. if you
can line-dry, that is ideal, but don’t bother
ironing.

5. Biodegradable diapers
• Made with plant –based plastics, these diapers
are non-petroleum based and are
compostable.while these have been found not
to break down under landfill conditions, there
are other options to compost them such as
using a composting toilet, an earthworm
system, or a highly active and properly
conditioned composting area. Hybrid diapers
like diapers ,have removable inserts that can
safely biodegrade when flushed.

7. Feed your little one:from breast or
bottle?
• This one’s a no-brainer:breastfeeding is
best. It free has health benefits for mother
and baby has no environmentalk impact and
is a precious bonding experience.however in
our commerce driven society there are
products for everthing and breastfeeding is
no exception. For breast pads ditch
disposables and try re-usable organic cotton
or wool felt pads.

8. At about six months, babies starts to
eat real food. Rice cereal and mushy
veggies turn to combinations of fish
,meat,eggs legumes,and vegetables –
yep, a regular person’s diet. Buying
jars of food is sure convenient,but as
an adult you don’t live out of jars ,so
why should your baby? For those
occasional situations, purchase
organic or fresh frozen baby food.

9. Dress your baby in smart green
clothing
• All those designer baby clothes are cute and
oh so hard to resist in their fruity colors. But
be careful. Not only does a baby grow out of
clothes amasingly fast, they are constantly
sending bodily fluids flying onto those
precious outfits.
• the baby couture might be better replaced
with convenient one-piece suits in practical
white terry cloth.

10. Lather up with natural skin care
• It very easy to get sucked into the constant
advertising of baby powders, creams,and
lotions,but avoid soap on a baby’s delicate
skin less is more fir their skin care. The best
baby lotoin is plain old olive oil or coconut
oil
• Cheasp, natural, and un-perfumed.

13. Make play –time green-time greener toys
get back to basics and try old fashioned
wooden tiys and organic cotton or home
made teddies.because babies put most
things in their mouths, go as natural as
possible, then when baby is a little older,
get hold of second-hand toys. also aim for
toys that help build a child’s bond with
nature and the natural world.
