Looking for a great baby gift for your favorite green mommy-to-be? There are some wonderful eco-friendly choices that won't break your bank account. From infant clothing to baby's first toys - give considering to what you're buying for baby.
Many textiles used in baby clothes and blankets are created from textiles that are rendered from crops where heavy pesticides are used. Also, some little ones are allergic to synthetic fibers. Levels of lead in some imported baby toys contain dangerous levels of lead in the paint.

One item that is universally appreciated is infant clothing. Between productive after-feeding burp-ups to diaper "oopsies" - a baby may need changing clothes several times a day. Gifts of baby clothing, blankets and onesies are always useful.

Another thing to consider when you're buying infant clothing for a mommy-to-be is the size. Most baby showers will be filled with plenty of newborn clothing items. Get a few organic cotton or bamboo onesie sets in newborn and also 0-3 months sizes or even 3-6 month sizes and that way baby will have clothes to grow into and mom won't have 50 newborn items of clothing and very little beyond that.

The type of material used in infant clothing can mean a lot. Any mommy-to-be that prefers eco-friendly fabrics will adore baby clothing items made from bamboo or bamboo/organic cotton blends. Bamboo is softer and absorbs moisture far better than cotton and it's also hypoallergenic, protects baby from UV rays of the sun and is very durable through many washes and wears - which makes it fantastic for baby clothing items.

Infant clothing is a much needed item for any new parent. If you're searching for the perfect baby gift for your green mommy-to-be, why not put together a set of infant clothing mom can really use made from organic cotton or bamboo onesies and blankets and a larger size sleeper and one cute day outfit? Include a little note about the fibers used to create the clothing pieces in your baby gift, for any eco-conscious parent - it will be very much appreciated not having to play "what's this baby item made with?". Your baby gift will be one of the most appreciated and used when the little one's debut day arrives
