Homemade baby wipes, wipes solution, and cloth diapering tips
The Tranquil Parent posted today about making your own reusable cloth baby wipes and wipes solution. We've covered this topic on Polliwogged before, but Mika has some additional tips and the New Year is a great time to achieve a "live greener" resolution. If you've been wanting to try this (saves money and resources, and some say it's easier when you're on the go) check out the article, or if you already have, chime in with your own experiences or advice!
Also, don't miss Mika's tips for cloth diapering essentials after a year of doing it herself - lots of good discussion going on on the comments there, too. - Jeremiah

There are plenty of baby-friendly books out there, from popular board books to playful fabric books, but how many do you know are eco-friendly as well? I just discovered a “green” series of books aptly named Little Green Books, and their Little Panda and Little Monkey cloth books are perfect for little ones.
The series is designed to help educate children on how to be more eco-friendly. Made from recycled materials, the stories teach everything from improving the environment to learning about endangered animals.
Little Panda and Little Monkey were designed for infants. Both books feature the two friends and their days spent eating their favorite foods and playing together. The super soft recycled Polartec fleece and cotton make for an extra cuddly book, perfect for keeping in your baby’s crib (so Mom can have a few more minutes of quite time too). Like all baby-friendly cloth books, these are machine-washable, and like a true eco-friendly cloth book, they comes packaged in a chipboard box made from 100% recycled material.
It’s never too early to teach your little one about the environment and Little Green Books are a great way to do so. You can find Little Panda and Little Monkey on Amazon.com for $10. - Emily H.

I’ve always known about baby-friendly laundry detergent and fabric softener, but I had no idea you could buy baby-friendly dish soap! Dapple Dish Liquid is an all-natural dish soap that is phthalate-free, paraben-free, and dye-free. It features award-winning "green" technology that targets milk residue (all too common on bottles and other feeding gear) and baking soda to fight odor. The ingredients list is rather impressive only because I can actually understand each ingredient, from purified water and baking soda to tree oils and natural amino acids.
Dapple rinses quickly and uses essential oil for a light lavender fragrance. It is also biodegradable, environmentally safe, free of detectable levels of dioxane (a known eye and respiratory tract irritant) and has not been tested on animals. Kind of makes me wonder just what's in the current bottle of dish soap sitting on my sink…
You can purchase a 16-oz. bottle of Dabble for about $6 from Amazon.com or a case of six 17-oz. bottles for about $42 from Dapple's website. - Emily H.

Eco-Friendly Reusable Happy Birthday Banner
Looking for something better than those plastic birthday banners? Look no further - I have your reusable and handmade solution right here. The Polka Dot Tot Spot carries several versions you'll be delighted to pull out year after year.
I love products that reinforce family traditions, and your kids will get extra excited for their special day when they see you hanging the family birthday banner. And you'll be happy knowing that it both looks great and isn't something that will clog up the landfill for hundreds of years. I call that a win-win!
The Polka Dot Tot Spot is also happy to do custom orders for different colors, different words on the banner, and almost anything else you can dream up. Right now if you order a handmade birthday banner ($38) you get one of her adorable birthday shirts for half-off.
She also makes soft fabric balls and blocks, so you can get some serious shopping in while perusing her store. I see the balls and blocks as the perfect emergency gift to have on hand if you anticipate being invited to a lot of First Birthday parties in your future.
