Not so long ago, my child was sent home with head lice for the first time. Apparently, most of the class was sent home as well. A major lice outbreak was declared. I knew right away that pharmacy bought lice shampoos will not be an option so I drove over to the health store. After consulting with the storeowner, it dawned on me that even with the natural lice shampoos, eliminating lice would most probably be a nice battle. I purchased a bottle of natural lice shampoo anyway and went home to do some more research.

This is when I came across professional head lice removal treatment services in Brooklyn. Who ever knew they existed?! Not only do they treat head lice naturally, but also complete lice elimination is guaranteed. The price? Very affordable. I scheduled an appointment with Lice Free Noggins and our treatment began in just a few short hours. Best of all, we were serviced in our home. We were left with very thorough directions on how to clean our home in order to prevent re-infestation, and continued combing out our hair every other night. We were also counseled on steps to take in order to avoid future lice infestations. It was such a smooth and easy process, if only everyone knew about such services.

• Organic foods

  Grabbing a jar of food of the shelf is certainly convenient, but is it the best thing for your baby? One of the greenest things you can do for your child is making organic baby food for them. When you make their food, you know exactly what goes into it and it’s a fresher option than a jar. For make-ahead meals, freeze baby food in ice cube trays and pop them out as needed. If you absolutely have to buy jars of baby food, go for the organic, all-natural kinds.

• Eco-friendly toys

  Green toys are good for your baby in more ways than one. Aside from the fact that they are environmentally friendly, green toys can help teach your child about sustainability and to love nature. Most babies put things in their mouths, so it’s important to make sure the toys you give them are a natural as possible. Search for old-fashioned wooden toys or items made from organic materials. As they get older, you might look for toys made out of recyclable materials.

• Cloth diapers

  While many may enjoy the modern convenience of disposable diapers, maybe they actually had it right back in the day. If you are truly looking for a way to go green, use cloth diapers. They are a much more eco-friendly option than disposable diapers, which can take anywhere from 200-500 years to decompose. And when you consider on average a baby will go through 6,000 diapers, you will find that cloth diapers are the greener choice. Fortunately, cloth diapers have been revamped from the olden days. Forget about diaper pins; most cloth diapers come fitted with snap closures or Velcro strips. You can also find many cloth diapers made from environmentally friendly fabrics, such as organic cotton or hemp. As an added bonus, cloth diapers are much cheaper than buying 6,000 disposables!

• Natural skin care

  When shopping for skin care products for your baby, you might be shocked at the sheer volume of products available. But the best products are the ones that are fragrance-free, organic and as natural as possible. A good rule of thumb is if you don’t know what everything on the label is, it probably isn’t green. If your baby has sensitive skin, or you want to use an all-natural product, try olive oil. It’s inexpensive, unscented and works just as well as any lotion.

• Green bedding

  While babies don’t always sleep regularly, they do sleep a lot. If you want your baby to enjoy the green life, go for organic bedding. Regular mattresses are often treated with chemical fire retardants that could seep into your baby’s body. To avoid putting your baby near chemicals that could harm him or her, go for a natural wool or organic cotton mattress. As far as bedding, look for bamboo or organic cotton blankets and sheets that are eco-friendly and won’t irritate sensitive skin.

You choose the best of the best for your baby, so why not do the same for yourself? If you live in an energy deregulated area, you have the power to choose your own retail energy supplier. Some of these suppliers even offer green energy options that allow you to offset 100 percent of your energy use. To see if you’re eligible to make the switch, visit: www.energyproviderstexas.com.

One of the major issues is that babies and small children are not able to blow their nose and it will take some time before they learn to breathe through their mouth.  A stuffy nose will hinder breathing, can cause discomfort, and may lead to more serious health problems concerning the ear, nose, throat and the inferior respiratory tracts. Therefore it is very important to keep the nasal cavity clear. The Baby-Vac™ Nasal Aspirator is by far the best alternative for this purpose.

Strider Balance Bike

We don’t usually add products like this to our site, but we came across this and were so impressed with the results we knew we just had to add it.  The Strider PREbike is the best no pedal balance bike on the market.  It is designed for 1-5 year olds.  With no adult help a curious toddler will intuitively straddle the bike and begin the process of learning to ride a bike.

First the child walks with the toddler bike  between their legs, then they start pushing off and rolling, trusting his/her own abilities they begin running, gliding and steering around obstacles.
What they actually are learning is proper balance and steering. This makes learning to ride a bike easy, stress-free and safe.  Running bike holds several advantages over ordinary beginner’s bikes.

The Strider teaches your child balance, coordination and develops confidence.  Trikes and bikes with training wheels don’t.  Traditional bicycles place too much of the focus on learning to pedal and tricycles are heavy, clunky and difficult for kids to control. Remember your first training-wheeled bicycle? The bike wobbled from side to side and you were so high up that you couldn’t touch the ground. It was terrifying. Don’t let your child or grandchild learn to ride a bike like this!

Bike riding becomes a breeze when you teach your child balance and coordination before pedaling.  The Strider takes pedaling out of the mix so that kids can concentrate solely on learning balance, which takes more practice.  Pedaling is a secondary skill that kids can easily learn within a few short minutes.

If your child can walk… your child can ride a Strider.
