Why Organic Baby Gifts Make Great Presents
Why Organic Baby Gifts Make Great Presents
If you are wondering what to buy for a friend or family member who has recently had a baby, have you considered buying organic baby gifts? Well this article helps you understand organic baby clothes and their potential to be a great present.
Organic baby clothes are generally made out of organic cotton or bamboo. The plantations do not use chemical fertilizers or chemical pesticides. One of the main causes of eczema and skin allergies to babies is these chemicals. A baby's skin is very sensitive and some baby's are more susceptible than others to skin problems. We never know until it's too late whether our child will have an allergic reaction to the mass produced clothes we buy them until it's too late. This makes organic clothes the safest clothing for babies on the planet.
Organic baby gifts are also generally made from sustainable products. Bamboo for instance is totally sustainable being the fastest growing plant in the world. It also produces the most oxygen while growing making it a great prospect for future clothing manufacturing. It is also super soft and very strong, much stronger and softer than cotton. Organic cotton is also fantastic but not as good for the environment as bamboo. Cotton takes 50% more land to produce the same amount of fabric as bamboo and doesn't produce the oxygen levels that bamboo does.
Most organic gift sets are sold in organic packaging or at least recycled packaging. You will of course probably pay a bit extra for these gift sets but it's worth it. A small organic gift set is better than a big mass produced chemical filled gift set that might give the baby a rash or eczema. You don't want to be the one that brought on the babies eczema just because you wanted to save some money. Less is more!
Of course buying an organic gift set will also show you care about the environment and the baby's welfare. After all it's their planet we are destroying. We will be long gone when they are breathing poisoned air because we didn't react fast enough. We all need to be a bit more responsible whether you believe in global warming or not buying organic clothing can only be a good thing.
With normal mass produced cotton, there is also the exploitation of the plantation workers who suffer from terrible illnesses due to inhaling the pesticides and drinking from rivers that these chemicals have polluted. When they spray these plantations with airplanes, the chemicals float in the air and don't just stay on the plantations. 20,000 people per year die from inhaling chemical pesticides in third world countries. These hard working farmers have children too.
It is an outrageous thing to think but we all have blood on our hands really. By buying cheap baby clothes we are encouraging these poorly run plantations who exploit their workers and their families to thrive. I have three children and I decided to buy organic baby clothes for our third child and now the others after reading about what goes on at these plantations. Now I buy one or two organic baby clothes instead of four or five cheap ones. I sleep better at night and so does my little girl.
I suppose the biggest thing that hits you when you first buy organic baby clothes is the fact that they are super soft, especially bamboo clothing. I would recommend anyone to buy some organic baby clothes. If only half your baby's wardrobe is organic you would have done some good and own some great quality clothes. All the organic clothes I have purchased have always been of the highest quality. Well I hope you are wiser now and better able to make an informed choice. Thanks for listeninig.
