You can buy your kid organic baby clothing for natural comfort and let your little munchkin do his or her part to save the planet. Superbaby!
Organic Children's Clothing
It’s so much better to get your baby organic clothing. But, don’t freak if you can’t find natural products for your tot. However, babies have delicate skin and they are often more sensitive to pesticides and strange dyes than adults are. And, some babywear fabrics have become infused with heavy metals.
Organic Clothing for Baby Boys
Organic clothing can be more expensive than non-organic outfits, but not always. And, remember that your little buddy is growing fast so you don’t need to buy mass quantities of small sizes.
Not too long ago, organic cotton rompers and onesies were boring baby pastels and washed out pinks. Now, the outfits look like tiny Picassos:
- Organic Surfer Onesie from Fierce Hugs: Yes, this is the most adorable onesie ever made for a boy. Even if you live in Kansas, your little dude will be having primal-surfing dreams all night long. Cowabunga.
- Howdy Partner Infant Collection: See this cute cowboy collection at Sage Creek Organics. If you can’t get all organics, buy a good inside layer and put cheaper clothing on the outside, away from your little monkey’s skin.
- Baby PJ Dragonfly Set: Smart moms need to crawl out of bed and drag themselves to the computer for a few minutes each week to scout out inexpensive organic bargains. This 2-piece set is under $10. It’s bugs! We love bugs. Only small sizes are left…check SageCreekOrganics.com.
- Diaper Pirate Organic One Piece: Okay, while you weren't looking, your baby just crawled over to the computer to find a bad-boy onesie. You think your little sweet pea is an angel, but he just put that organic pirate outfit into the cart at Punk Baby Clothes. And, when you went into the kitchen to do the dishes, he added this Sparrow Tatoo organic romper. You know what they say, “Never turn your back on a baby pirate.” You won’t even know what hit you until the UPS truck arrives.
Organic Clothing for Baby Girls
Some mothers-to-be ask close friends and relatives to look for organic clothing and bedding when buying presents for their little ones. It's a bit of a faux pas to add anything about gifts to a baby shower invitation, but if you spread the word discretely, it might help.
- Nursery Charms Collection: Ask grandma to get this type of organic print for your sweetie. Tell older people that your baby prefers bright colors and high contrasts. But, your baby will be just as happy to see her mommy's smiling face, so pastels are okay, too.
- Girls Organic Ruffle Tank: Mom, this is a good time to plan ahead for next spring and summer. SageCreekOrganics.com has organic tops like this for $10. (And, they have similar $10 tops in sizes: 12mo, 18mo, 2T, 3T, 4T, 5, 6) You’re going to kick yourself (or your baby’s going to do it for you) if you don’t jump all over this.
- Organic Cotton Kimono Dress: I can just hear your little girl now, “But, Mo-o-om, all the other toddlers get to wear organic kimono dresses. I promise I’ll never ask for anything else as long as I live. You want me to look cute, don’t you?”
Unisex Organic Baby Clothing:
Okay, if you want well-made clothes from a time-tested company, you are going to have to look for Hanna Andersson outfits. Garments from this Swedish company will outlast more than one child, so buy your child's clothing a bit big to get your money’s worth.
Hanna Andersson used to have the “Hannadowns Program” where customers sent outgrown clothing back to Hanna Andersson to receive a discount, and the company donated those old clothes to charity. That’s how well-made those clothes are. (Hanna Andersson has other charities now.) However, you can find discount Hannas in Hanna Andersson Outlet stores or look for pre-owned Hannas at consignment stores and on eBay. Here are unisex examples:
- Long Johns In Organic Cotton
- Nordic Knit Romper
- Organic Baby Hats
If you take an active role in seeking out organic goods, you can find them for very good prices. Some organic clothing is so cool, you are going to have to have another baby or two to wear out your finds.
