Apple Tree Mommy & Me Tee

Lisa Mulcahy — Fri, 01 May 2009 01:30:00 GMT

Proof that mommy and me fashion need not be matching identical sets, I love this duo from Georgie Tees. Playing on the old, “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree” adage, this set, $48, is the perfect baby shower or new mom mother’s day gift. The onesie is super soft and made from 100% combed ringspun cotton. And mommy’s organic cotton shirt is sized just right for those postpartum months.

Jax Toy Cube, the Organic Organizer

Aaron Burgess — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 15:00:00 GMT

Okay, so it's only half-organic, but you can still feel good about the rest of the materials in this Jax Toy Cube from Nest. Fourteen inches in all directions, the cube (which doubles as child seating) features a durable organic-cotton cover stretched over its recycled-wood frame. We're showing the purple version here, but it's also available in a more gender-neutral orange or green.

$69.99 from Oompa Toys.

Little Lark T-Shirts - The Owls Are Not What They Seem

Chris Ford — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 23:10:00 GMT

Maybe it's because I've been on a Twin Peaks kick recently, but I'm seeing owls everywhere. And the organic onesies and t-shirts from Little Lark are no exception. Not that you have to pick owls - they've got robots, horses and gnomes too.

All of the products from Little Lark are made from organic cotton, colored with non-toxic azo-free dyes and are hand screened. What this means to you is it's another cool kid-clothing option for gift giving or splurging on your little one.

Little Lark onesies, t-shrits, hoodies and play dresses, $26 to $38 from Black Wagon

Organic Underwear That's Fun to Wear

Aaron Burgess — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 15:03:00 GMT

Remember Underoos? Yeah, they're still around (albeit in lesser form), and you can still score vintage pairs (unopened, we hope) via eBay, but for the most part, the generation beneath us will never have the pleasure of going to bed in cheap polyester underwear that's supposed to make them look like Wonder Woman or Hong Kong Phooey.

Our kids will, however, have the chance to bop around in fun coordinated undergarments like this Fig Organics Toothbrush Undie Set, which, made as it is from organic cotton, no doubt feels a lot better on the old hindquarters than the Fruit of the Loom sets we donned in the stone age. (Fig's baby clothes are Julia Roberts-endorsed, too -- do with that info what you will.) Think of them as "Upwardly Mobile-Roos."

$34 from Black Wagon.

7 Days of Eco-Friendly Clothing: Seaweed Kimono

Lisa Mulcahy — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 12:52:00 GMT

Yes, you read the headline right, it’s a kimono and it’s made out of seaweed. Well not entirely, it’s actually 25% SeaCell and 75% organic cotton. SeaCell is a revolutionary new fabric made from seaweed. This company has taken it to the kiddie clothing market with its Baby Elephant Collection and is having a hard time keeping its wares in stock.

Future Factory Clothing, the makers of this cute kimono, $16, claim that since seaweed holds the beneficial elements of the ocean, the SeaCell fibers become a true source of minerals, proteins, amino acids, and vitamins, such as Vitamin A and E. But what does this have to do with the clothes? SeaCell fabric is supposed to re-mineralize the skin by releasing its bounty of minerals and vitamins onto the skin, even after repeated washing. Kinda sounds like a seaweed mask ala kimono for babies, but a whole a lot cheaper than a day at the spa.

Truth in Advertising: Pure and Natural Animals

Aaron Burgess — Mon, 04 Feb 2008 21:44:00 GMT

Let's see: Hand-made? Check. Naturally pigmented? Yep. Made from 100% organic cotton? Indeed.

From designer Volker Senger, these all-natural animals ($16 from Branch) are also machine-washable, which means you can run 'em through a warm cycle before baby starts to suck them into tatters. The only catch: Senger's animals are $16 each, so if you want a complimentary giraffe-and-camel set as pictured above, it'll cost you double.

Organic Softies Are Too Cute To Be Ignored

Leigh-Ann Jackson — Wed, 03 Oct 2007 14:00:00 GMT

"What are those, Mommy? I like those. I want one of those, Mommy."

I spend a fair amount of my daughter's coloring/puzzle-assembling time online trawling for items to review. She sees a lot of the gear and gadgets that flash across the screen and is seldom fazed. Something about these darling 100% cotton-filled vintage fabric dolls struck a chord. She's probably not going to get one of them, mind you, but I can at least report a glowing review from my otherwise doll-ambivalent 3-year-old.

Green Baby: What's Your (Organic) Sign?

Mir — Fri, 24 Aug 2007 11:02:00 GMT

My Goodness Duds specializes in organic cotton clothing for little ones, all grown and sewn here in the USA. Their newest offerings are baby horoscope signs, and each design is just as cute as the Leo one pictured above. The options are many and range from $12 for a bib to $40 for a long sleeve shirt and leggings set.

Plus, they're educational. According to the site, all babies born in the next month (Virgo) like tidy toyboxes. I did not know that.
