At first consideration, the thought of using bamboo in baby wipes might be off-putting.

Plus, BumBoosa offsets more than 100% of its carbon emissions by planting trees. You can purchase a case of 6 packages of BumBoosa Bamboo Baby Wipes for $32.99 at Amazon.com.

Petit Bateau makes simple, comfortable, and high-quality clothes for boys and girls. They have never been a staple of my girls’ wardrobes, but we have gotten a lot of use out of the pieces we have had. I quite like this cute little bamboo dress.

It originally retailed for $48, but is currently on sale for $38.40 at Petit-bateau.us.

This Organic Grey Bamboo Branch Onesie from Small Plum recently caught my eye with its simple, yet very aesthetically-pleasing style. Grey is an unexpected choice for baby gear, but it looks great. Plus it’s made from bamboo, so it is ultra soft and eco-friendly. You’ll be doing your part to support the use of sustainable resources while no doubt enjoying many compliments.

You want everything that touches your little one to be ultra soft and gentle. What’s better than bamboo, a naturally soft fabric, for wash cloths that are luxuriously soft and safe? This set includes five cloths in your choice of color. Each cloth is made in the USA from 80% bamboo and 2-% recycled polyester. I love the feel of bamboo, and wouldn’t mind having some of these for myself! You can buy the set for $12 at peekagreen.com. They would also make a nice baby gift, whether you give them on your own or as part of a gift basket.

I’m a fan of eco-friendly products but they always come with a hefty price tag. However, some decent prices can be found at NewBornMom.com. I like the Bambu Baby Bowls, which are $11.95. I spotted pink, cayenne (shown above), blue, and yellow. (The only trouble I had with the NewBornMom site was that the descriptions weren’t thorough enough so I had to search for all the shades.) Bamboo is an eco-friendly choice, as it will degrade, unlike many plastic materials; the site, however, warns against soaking them because of this.  Convenience is an issue because they are not microwave or dishwasher safe. They are the safe choice for your kids though, so it’s really about priorities. Get the matching utensils for $6.95.
 
 

We’re all familiar with the spork—it’s a great invention really—but this spork is very different from the plastic one found at some fast food chains. Made from organic bamboo and finished with a food safe oil, the Kid’s Bamboo Spork by bambu is made especially for small hands and mouths. And unlike that plastic spork that you use and throw away, you can use this over and over again.

While my babies are not quite ready for a fork, this would be a great option when they’re a little older. Someone who bought one of these commented that it’s the perfect size for a young toddler just learning to feed himself. And while he’s eating, you can take the opportunity to teach him a little about bamboo and how eco-friendly it is. Perfect for home or travel, this spork can be found for just $3.50 at greenfeet.com.

I’ve been seeking the perfect new wrap for our baby-to-be, but just couldn’t decide what was the best choice. That changed when I discovered this great wrap from Sugar Sweet Baby.  The attractive pink print caught my attention, but when I discovered that the wrap is made from bamboo fabric, I was completely sold.  If you haven’t experienced this super-silky fabric, you are in for a treat.  Not only does it feel absolutely luxurious to the touch, but it has the perfect amount of stretch, which makes it ideal for babywearing.

The website provides detailed instructions for using the wrap.  Although it looks complicated at first, it is very easy to get the hang of, and because of the design, you have complete control over the fit.  Lack of adjustability was my biggest complaint against my last baby carrier, so this one is perfect for me.

You can purchase this wrap on sale for $65 at sugarsweetbaby.com.  The company ships quickly and packages everything beautifully, so this wrap would make a great gift.

I am absolutely in love with this top from Japanese Weekend, a brand that has never disappointed me.  Made from an ultra-soft bamboo blend, this is sure to flatter, and can be worn both during and after your pregnancy.

I love the neckline of this Bamboo During & After Turtleneck.  Having a dark colored turtleneck next to your face can really accent your eyes and other features–something you definitely need during pregnancy when you aren’t always feeling your best.  I also like the flattering gathers on the bodice.  Overall, I think this shirt has a shape that will suit any figure, and which will be very forgiving post-baby (as will the dark color).  It even provides easy access for nursing.

This turtleneck could be dressed up or down, worn with jeans or a skirt; it seems very versatile.  You can purchase one on sale for $64.60 at babycenterstore.

Bath time can be a wonderful bonding time for parents and baby, but it can also be a little tricky and even a little scary for new parents.
