If you're looking for an alternative to synthetic materials or questionable wood-staining practices, meet the green-minded champion of the Cariboo Earth line. Like the optional Cariboo Activity Gym that can be easily mounted atop it, the Cariboo Earth Bassinet ($450 at Moderntots) is hand-crafted from sustainable New Zealand Radiata pine and finished with water-based, lead-free biodegradable stain. It also comes with a natural-fiber mattress (the support board for which promises 0% formaldehyde emission), an unbleached 100% cotton fitted sheet, and an eco-friendly dyed veil, and if you're traveling or are tight on space, it folds up for easy storage.
