Originally Published April 4, 2013 Our children and Mother Earth are such precious 
commodities. The importance in safeguarding the well-being of both is the highest priority. Use of organic and eco-friendly products not only protect the health of our children but also contributes to the continued well-being of Mother Earth. It is important that children’s apparel be good for kids as well as good for the planet. Baby, toddler, and youth clothing from soft sustainable bamboo, pure organic cotton, or a blend of both are great choices for conscious fashions for children.
Organic growing methods prohibit the use of toxic fertilizers, pesticides, or genetically modified seeds. Not only eliminating contamination of soil and ground waters where products are manufactured or harvested, organic methods offer consumers a purer product. Organic cotton clothing is a good choice for children as it is free of residual chemicals usually found in conventionally grown cotton. These toxic chemicals are not only responsible for skin irritations and allergies in children, but can possible result in more serious health problems. Considered a no fuss fabric, organic cotton clothing is soft, breathable, very comfortable to wear, and easy to care for.
Considered the fastest-growing and most renewable plant on earth, bamboo is an incredibly sustainable resource needing no pesticide or fertilizer to grow. Its root system continually sends up new shoots naturally replenishing the crop preventing erosion and damage to the environment. Bamboo is also biodegradable. It is a great choice for children’s clothing as it is very easy to wear. Extremely soft and highly breathable, its moisture wicking properties makes it perfect for warm weather wear as well as an ideal base for layering in cold weather. Hypoallergenic, bamboo clothing is great for children with allergies. The antifungal antibacterial properties keep bamboo clothing staying ‘fresh’ longer. It is extremely comfortable, drapes well, and is easy to clean.
Teaching children to be considerate of Mother Earth assures our planet will be healthy for future generations. There is not better way to protect their health and develop an eco-friendly attitude than with beautiful fun to wear organic and sustainable fiber clothing. Designs and colors inspired by nature encourage kids to be more thoughtful of the environment protecting natural resources, conserving energy, and being more in touch with nature. Pure organic or sustainable fiber fabrics free of residual chemicals, designed with eco-friendly dyes, in the latest styles, keep kids healthy and fashionable. Better for Mother Earth and the kids who love her. Nature inspired, beautifully designed organic children’s clothing encourages kids to think green.
