This green Retro Dress by Scandinavian designer Stromming makes me wish I had a little girl to dress up. Made of recycled, vintage cotton, the pullover style A-line dress has a one-button closure in back. It can even be worn as a tunic in colder weather, layered with a long-sleeve shirt underneath. The fabric it’s made from is 1960’s Swedish Recycled vintage designer fabric Pompeja by Märta-Lena Bjerhagen.

Made for Each Other Pillow Set

Made for Each Other Pillow Set

I like the idea of giving a pre-teen girl the Made for Each other Pillow Set for Valentine’s Day. How cute are the peanut butter and jelly cushions? Squish them together and they’re totally made for one another. Completely eco-friendly, they’re made from eco-felt and on sale for $50. Add $16 for customizing. They’re 16” tall by 15” wide by Etsy seller diffractionfiber.

Baby’s Journey Linen Baby Book by Terra Traditions

regular_angel-baby

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.

Plan Toys Crane Set

Plan Toys Crane Set

I have found since having boys that they like things that hook up to other things (tow trucks, helicopters with tow cables, cranes.) I saw the Plan Toys Crane Set and thought they’d like that. There’s a little man to run the crane and several construction items, like signs and a cement mixer. It’s eco-friendly, non-toxic, and brightly colored but pricey at $69.99. Little boys can be rough with their toys, though, and I’m sure the solid wood construction would stand up to them much better than a cheaper plastic version.

Holtziger Snake

Holtziger Snake

Holtziger animals are new to me; I haven’t run into them before. They’re kind of cute and not outrageously priced, some at under $10 apiece. Though he’s a bit more at $19.99, I especially like the Red Dragon, made from various types of sturdy wood. However, I am also a fan of the slithering Snake for $8.49. Softened edges, non-toxic paint, and touted as high quality, it might be worth collecting whole sets of Holtziger animals from www.threesisterstoys.com.

Fairy Forest Lodge Set

Fairy Forest Lodge Set

I know that, as a child (and maybe now), I’d have enjoyed the Fairy Forest Lodge set. If you buy the lodge alone (which is the house and the stairs only), it’s on sale for $74.95. However, if you buy the entire Tree Trunk House and all the accessories, it’s $214.95. I just love all the people, their furniture, and the bridge. The River Bridge Puzzle is a nice base for the house. The fairy dolls are sweet with their wings and smiling faces. This set really is something special. From www.threesisterstoys.com.

Barefoot Jungle Animals

Very eco-friendly because the fabric is made from special dyes from Switzerland, the Barefoot jungle animals are happy and pretty and sure to make good friends. They’re even on sale for $12.99, down from $16.99. I think they would go well among any other jungle animals or jungle play sets you might have in the play room. I adore the colors and textures and I think they will engage the senses of children. From www.littletreehouse.ca.

House

Instead of using the same old plastic tubs and totes for storage, why not consider a sweet felt house to put your child’s things in? 12” x 8” and great for all the little cars, dollies, pretend food, and other things that get underfoot, the hand made Houses are on sale for $52.99 (down from $69.99.) The great thing about these is that they’re even machine washable, which is always a good thing when children are involved. I love the little decorative felt flowers and climbing ivy adorning the houses. I think I’d keep all those books that gather next to rocking chairs and beds in our house in these lovely little storage houses from www.littletreehouse.ca.

Prance Tie Dress

Prance Tie Dress

The Prance Tie Dress has an aqua horse appliqué and trim to set off the bright red of the frock. There are even coordinating pants to go with it available on www.littletreehouse.ca, so you can put a long sleeve shirt underneath the dress for use all year round. It only comes in sizes 1 Year and 2T (dresses, especially with ties, do tend to be long-lasting though as both dresses and tops) but it’s on sale for $21.99 ($8 savings), with the bloomers on for the same price. If you’ve got a little boy or twins, there‘s a jumper in the same pattern; they’d make quite a pair of outfits.

Organic Kimono Body Long Sleeve in Mushroom

Rich hues on babies can be so delightful. That’s why I was drawn to the Organic Kimono Body Long Sleeve in Mushroom. The 100% Cotton one piece top is naturally dyed in a deep color and is $22 at www.sckoon.com. You can get a matching hat to go with it and a whole line of other apparel, like one piece sleep sacs, in the same shade. If brown’s not your bag, don’t worry—there are tons of other colors to pick from.
