Seven Practical
Green Baby Shower Gift Ideas

Are you in need of green baby shower gift ideas for a loved one? Whether your favorite mom-to-be is evergreen or has no clue about the benefits of choosing organics, she will be thinking of you as she reaches for any one of these must-have items during the baby's first year.

diaper bags are great baby shower gift ideas

Diaper bag made from recyclable materials.

Who knew you could need more than one of these in your baby's first couple of years? The Re-Run™ Messenger from Fleurville® diaper bag, made of recycled plastic bottle fabric keeps 10 plastic bottles out of the landfills.
Eco-friendly diaper cake

This is a fun way to present the gift that every mother needs. To better serve the eco-friendly moms, some companies use cloth diapers or chlorine-free disposables. Check out these diaper cakes made by Grow in Style on Amazon.

Before going all in with this baby shower gift idea you will want to have a subtle conversation with the mom-to-be about whether she will be using cloth or disposable diapers.

If you desire the cloth diapers to be organic cotton, you may have to put in a custom order. Or you could make your own diaper cake using this diaper cake tutorial.

born free bottles are bpa free

BPA-free bottles.

I am so thankful to the family friend who let me know about the importance of choosing Bisphenol-A (BPA)-free bottles before my baby had her first bottle.

The baby bottle industry has gotten some bad press recently and is now being forced to remove BPA from all baby bottles. However, BornFree was doing it the right way from the start. The bottles and the sippy cups are a hit with us.

The Miessence Organic Baby skin care line has an array of products for your baby

Organic skin care

Babies under six months don't need any skin care products on their delicate skin. However when it's time, the mommy will appreciate having organic skincare that is free of toxins in her baby's toilette. We use the line of products by Miessence.
Organic cotton bodysuits

Onesies can be a mom's best friend after a long night up with the baby. These side snap organic onesies from Under The Nile will make getting the baby dressed a cinch.
Non-toxic teething toys

Starting at about six months, everything goes in the baby's mouth to soothe teething gums. These fruit and vegetable teethers are a great option. We use these organic toys and love them because they are made from certified organic cotton.
Board books

Books are a great green option. They are generally passed on for other children to read for many generations.

For extra green points look for books made of paper from sustainable forests, like these from Usborne Books. We own several titles, including "That's Not My Puppy" from the Touchy Feely Series, and they all appear to be made with sustainability in mind. In addition to being eco-conscious, these books will be responsible for making mom and baby smile for years to come.
