I want to share how we as a family try to reduce our plastic waste and overall try to reduce our footprint and think about the environment in our purchases. Glass straws. We and both our toddlers love these and these. We use these and these Metal straws. I personally don’t use them but they are a good durable option here is a highly rated brand. Reusable water bottles. We love our life factory. Glass bottles are my favorite. They come with a normal lid option, a straw lid option and with a a nipple option. Klean kanteen are great too, our kids aren’t great at using their child friendly options, but I think in a year or two they will be. Hydro flask is next on my purchase list as I have only heard great things about them. For home use we mainly have mason jars. Cloth diapering. You can read about our cloth diaper choices here. And here is a bit talk about disposable diapers that are still eco friendly Reusable wipes Here is a good recipe for the solution and the wipes. If it’s not something for you there are still great choices of biodegradable wipes. Reusable pads. There are many brands, and some even make their own. They are much better for your skin and the environment. These are my current favorites. Spray solution bottles I have these. Also great for making your own toy cleaner, fruit rinse or just household cleaning. Avoid PVC and other products that are harmful and not biodegradable. We prefer wooden toys and most of the purchases also includes planting trees or supporting sustainable harvest. In my Green Living section there is a list of a few of the brands I know care a lot for our earth. Avoid plastic bags if possible or recycle probably. Slow fashion or buy second hand. I have also been looking at smaller things like choosing organic cotton, looking for companies where their ink is bio degradable. Whats your favorite way to protect our planet?
