Terra Traditions creates some gorgeous, artisan-style, eco-friendly baby books. Their Baby’s Journey style is my favorite. Winner of the iParenting Media Award, this beautiful 11″ x 11″ linen book has room for 200 4″x6″ photos. There is a place to preserve every memory: the baby shower, the birth record, the family tree, and baby’s favorite toys, animals, and songs. A beautiful Angel Baby adorned with real Swarovski crystals graces the cover. The perfect record book for baby’s first three years, this makes a wonderful, thoughtful gift for a new mom. It sells for $79.95 and can be found in stores in California, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Florida, and Texas. To find a store near you, visit TerraTraditions.com.

These handmade ice cream cone rattles look good enough to eat! Made by a fair trade women’s cooperative in Bangladesh, these knit rattles measure 5″ long. They are available in strawberry, mint chocolate chip, and french vanilla, and are sold individually for $9 each at Elsewares.com.

One of my pet peeves is socks that won’t stay up. Rock-a-Thigh Baby makes thigh-high socks guaranteed to stay up on babies’ and toddlers’ legs. These give full coverage like tights, yet are convenient to put on and take off like socks. Best of all, this company makes styles for boys and girls (unlike most of these tights companies who cater to females). Available in sizes from 0-6 months to 2-4 years, you can purchase this cute Little Boy Blue style for $14 at RockAThighBaby.com.

I found Discovery Totes on Etsy seller HELICOPTERstudios shop and am quite intrigued by them. I love that they fold up into a tote and unfold into a dream world. It’s a wonderful travel toy that your child can carry a few little people and houses in and unfold to play with anywhere. I especially like A Day for a Hike. Because it’s made of wool felt, it is eco friendly and it won’t overwhelm your child with lights and sounds. It’s paired with the imagination only, no batteries. $60 and a real delight.

My littlest boy loves wooden wire and bead toys. Among his collection is the Sesame Street Elmo & Friends Wood Busy Beads. It was actually a gift his brother was given when he was a baby but he never really took to those sorts of toys. Luckily, our 14-month-old is a wire and bead maze aficionado and seems to enjoy them very much. Since it’s not a toy out this year, you can find it by keeping your eye on amazon for a good price or kijiji for a good deal. I would hazard a guess that it could be found at a second hand store near you as well.

What parent wouldn’t chuckle at the sight of this shirt? If you want to advertise to the world that your child might be trouble, you’ll want this shirt, which comes in sizes from 12-18 months to 6T. It would be quite appropriate for my own 5 year old, I’m sure! Made of 100% organic cotton and printed with eco-friendly ink, you can be sure that this shirt is not only cute, it’s safe. Purchase it for $27 (with free shipping!) at SpunkyStork.com.

These cute shoes from Pedoodles are functional and easy to match with just about anything in your little guy’s closet. Their eco-friendly design is made from remnants of premium leather.

These shoes are available in a number of early walker and toddler sizes. You can purchase a pair for $36 at BabyAge.com.

I just stumbled upon this product and found it to be quite innovative. With three little girls in the house, we use a lot of leave-in conditioner. What is great about this product from Fairy Tales is that it uses natural ingredients, including rosemary, which is thought to help protect against head lice–and who wouldn’t want that added bonus? You can purchase an 8 oz. bottle for $12 at thecureshop.com.

I love Propoline’s nipple balm for the early (sore) days of nursing a new baby. I recently noticed that the company also makes this massage cream for use during pregnancy. Intended to keep skin smooth and to prevent stretch marks, it is made from natural ingredients. I had trouble finding this company’s products for a while, but I have recently found them online at babygeared. You can purchase this massage cream for $18 at babygeared.com. Now if I could only find a reliable source for the company’s rose lip balm…
