If you have multiple kids in your family, chances are good that you’ll end up with a huge pile of Styrofoam after the holidays.

Compare this to the $89 per ton for recycling glass and you Read the rest of this entry »

I’m taking a day off from the baby blogs today, but I didn’t want to forget to leave a note about Veterans Day. Don’t forget to take a moment this November 11th to thank Veterans for serving their country!

Today’s green goody is a handmade tooth pillow by Lil’ Sprouts Knits of Smyrna, GA. The smiling pillow will be easy for the tooth fairy to find at 7.5″ x 4″ and it’s totally green because it’s made of 100% organic cotton and non allergenic stuffing! The tooth fairy might want to act soon because shipping is free until November 10th. Available at the Lil’ Sprouts Knits shop on Etsy.

As seen in past posts at the Dear Dr.MOZ Baby Blog (see: making your own baby food), organic baby food is relatively inexpensive and easy to make once you have the basic supplies. Unfortunately, it takes a lot of time to shop, chop, cook, and freeze your own baby food…and time is the one thing that today’s parents don’t have. This is why families in the Newport Beach area are rolling their strollers up the to the pomme bébé organic baby food bar!
Pomme bébé’s organic baby and toddler food is created in small batches by their head chef Laurent Brazier who chooses his menu using in-season ingredients free from preservatives and artificial flavors. Unlike most canned baby food found in stores, pomme bébé simmers their food slowly to retain natural colors and nutrients. Visit their site at www.pommebebe.com to learn more about their fresh baby/toddler food, and learn how easy it is to have an order shipped via FedEx to your home.
Have fun and stay healthy,
