As far as we know, we only have  one little planet to call our own. We must preserve and protect this world of ours by doing as many environmentally friendly things as we can. A little effort can have a big impact. On our list of little things are the three R’s (reducing, reusing and of course recycling) we use cloth diapers most of the time, use chemical free cleaners and we do our best to buy products made from organic cotton. Companies such as Happy Green Bee have a great collection of safe, sustainable, super snuggy styles of organic cotton clothing for your babes in sizes extra small (0-6 months/10-15 lbs) to extra large (4 yrs/30-40 lbs). I received for review a cardigan/pant set in a size small suitable for 6-12 months. This adorable outfit is very snuggly on our little dude, it is very roomy and allows him to crawl easily without any fussiness. The fabric is organic cotton, breathable and allows for freedom of motion. Our dude is a bit chubby, the loose elasticized waist on the matching pants allows for chubbier babes to have lots of wiggle room.

The set is incredibly soft organic cotton with a rolled cuff at the sleeve and the neck and the buttons are made from post-consumer recycled material.

Wondering why organic cotton is superior? The Happy Green Bee website offers a very comprehensive explanation of why organic cotton is so much better for the planet and those who inhabit it. In brief, organic cotton does not retain toxic residues, it is not treated with pesticides, or does not use petroleum-based fertilizers or genetically engineered seed.

Happy Green Bee makes a variety of gender free, vibrant colored clothing and gifts. The clothing line from Happy Green Bee features a wide assortment of bold laugh out loud colors  sure to please. Each comfy piece has several varieties; the tops have cardigans, kimonos, hoodies, long, short and tank tops, the matching bottoms feature shorts, skorts, and leggins, the sportswear line  features adorable suits and shorts and the dresses come in two designs; petal and A line.

In addition to their clothing line, Happy Green Bee has a gift collection  of dolls, blankets and Happy Green Bee’s nursery favorites for the mom on the go. The two organic cotton dolls; Abbee and Amber are ready for play in their matching chemise and colorful leggings. The blanket gift set has a (36″ X 36″) piece of organic cotton knit into a soft and stretchy receiving blanket, a 4 oz. bottle of our eco-friendly laundry soap and a re-usable zipper tote.

The nursery favorites kit contains such nursery necessities  as  a 4 oz. non-toxic, biodegradable eco friendly laundry detergent, a 2 oz. home-made diaper ointment, a 2 oz. sample size of calendula oil made from organically grown calendula flowers and botanical oils, a 4 oz. herbal room spray which I know your are going to love!

The creative mind behind Happy Green Bee,  Roxanne Quimby is an inspiration;  she a mom of twins, a painter, an environmentalist,philanthropist, world traveler and the co-creater of  a little company many of us love, Burt’s Bees. Wow, I would love to read her biography!

There are thousands of ways to actively care for our environment, each one of us as a consumer has the ability to make a difference by using your purchasing power to support companies that make our world a better place by using eco-friendly practices. Making people aware of the benefits of organic cotton and supporting companies who use it are just one way to help mother earth.
