Baby Burts Bees Bear Gift Set Basket

Burt's Bees is an "Earth Friendly, Natural Personal Care Company." They create natural, Earth-friendly personal care products formulated to help you maximize your well-being and that of the world around you. Burt's Bees got their start back in 1984 in Maine, when Roxanne Quimby and Burt Shavitz teamed up selling candles made from the beeswax created as a by-product of Burt's honey business. Burt's Bees has grown up over the past several years and a lot has changed, but there are some things that never will: their recipes, their values and their natural way of doing things.

Burt's Bees has products for the entire family, but I just love their baby care products especially formulated for baby's precious skin. These gentle, creams, powders and lotions are packed with a bundle of natural ingredients for your bundle of joy.

Clean House, Clean Planet: Clean Your House for Pennies a Day, the Safe, Nontoxic Way

You know, our grandmothers were smart women. They used household items to clean their homes. Why buy Windex, when you could clean glass with vinegar? This book take us back to a simpler, less chemical filled time of cleaning our homes with everyday household items that are much less toxic than commercial cleaners.


Clean House Clean Planet

"I was thrilled to stumble across Karen Logan's book shortly after my son was born. I started to avoid cleaning because I detested using most household cleaners due to the harsh chemicals. I was also very concerned about my son's second-hand exposure or worse - possible direct contact. Karen's book educated me about the hazards of commericial cleaners and then taught me how to make my own simple and safe cleaners right in my kitchen. This information showed me that harsh cleaners are unnecessary and more important what natural products would produce similar results. Making my own products is also entertaining and educational for my toddler who is now able to "help" clean and I don't waste precious naptime on toilet bowls and bath tubs! Her receipes are very easy to follow and are effective!!! I gave away all my commericial products almost two years ago and have not gone back to one of them. It's so comforting to know that my family is no longer exposed to harmful cleaners and we are doing our part in protecting the environment."

This books is a great resource in combination with How to Grow Fresh Air.
