Christmas Gifts for Kids

One of our favourite customers, (a SAHM mother to 2 gorgeous boys) has written a guest post for us this month - a great read for anyone looking to purchase Christmas gifts for little ones.
Shellie is passionate about our Environment (and protecting it) and raises some great points below.


"This Christmas, more than ever, I am determined that we should give
the earth a Happy New Year by making environmentally friendly
choices. I find that Christmas is a time where we really are
speaking with our wallets, and thus it is so important that we buy
carefully.
So often a gift is bought just for the sake of something to give. I
feel that if you are stuck for what to buy something, it is best to
donate on their behalf instead. I have some young cousins who are
really difficult to buy for and in the past I have used the TEAR and
OXFAM websites which have many choices available such as "buying"
school supplies for children, mosquito nets, or a chook for a
family. Greenpeace is another good one where you can donate money to
protect rainforests. Orangutans.com.au offer "cards-for-a-cause" and
a search of the internet will find you many similar options.

My immediate family do a Kris Kringle where the gift has to have cost
nothing (being a farming family, we are conscious of the environment
and do not like to waste money just for the sake of giving a gift).
This year I have made my brother a photo album from cereal boxes
decorated with scraps of paper and copies of his baby photos with a
bit of writing about him. My sister is going to help my mum paint
her house and my mum is brilliant at making things from wood so i am
sure to get something great from her.

My Mum's relatives come up with a gift swapping game, where we all
put one gift into the centre. we then take turns to either chose a
gift from the pile, or to steal one off another person. This year,
the gifts that we have to put in must be something that we have at
home, but no longer use. i have plenty of things i can put in!
My dad's family too, have adopted this idea. we have our Christmas
gathering the weekend before Christmas and this year I will be sure
that I put in only environmentally friendly gifts - a notepad made
from post consumer recycled paper and a pen from
www.goinggreensolutions.com.au
Some of my other favourite sites are www.biome.com.au and
www.todae.com.au
I recently bought my kids a little solar car from
Todae ($12) which is great to teach them about energy.
I have been searching for great gifts for my kids and for the
children of my best friend and have come across many wonderful
sites.
My favourites being
www.ecotoys.com.au
www.honeybeetoys.com.au and
www.thetribestore.com.au

My kids favourite toys are organic wooden "anamalz" and each birthday
and christmas we add something to their collection.
"greentoys" make some wonderful items including a tea set made from
recycled plastic bottles (their range can be found at
www.ecotoys.com.au)

"Boon" make bath toys that are bpa free and do not have holes in the
bottom to allow toys such as ducks to fill up with yucky water which
is then drunk by cheeky children. They also have some innovative
bath toys such as a ring toss game.


My favourite new item that I am looking at for my own children is the
rainbow nesting blocks from www.ecotoys.com.au. these are brightly
coloured blocks in various shapes - square, triangle and crescent -
that can be stacked in any way that you can think of. I love these
sorts of toys for kids as it gives them a chance to really use their
imagination. The blocks are made from environmentally friendly
rubber wood. I know that I can trust ecotoys and that they only
stock good quality, environmentally friendly products. For this
reason, I have passed their website on to family who are looking at
what to buy for my children.
I also saw an idea of making your own Christmas bonbons by using
toilet rolls. I have found some great little things that can fit
inside a toilet roll - wooden pencils from "Save the children" and
some organic lip balm. I also have some brilliant family jokes to
put inside. but i wont be sharing those here!
Finally, there is nothing better after a christmas lunch that to have
a great conversation with your relatives while you wash the dishes
(no need for disposable plates and cutlery).
So, this year, lets all give the earth a Merry Christmas and a Happy
New Year by making our purchases carefully."

Thanks Shellie for sharing this special post with us - It sounds as though you will be enjoying a wonderful Christmas with your beautiful family!

About three things I was absolutely positive....... First, winter was in full swing. Second, there is a part of me that absolutely adores hats of shape and kind. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with bamboo!

You could be forgiven for thinking I am in a Twilight-induced-blog-posting-haze, however this is NOT the case. I have just found out that my good friend Simone over at Monkey Caboose has some totally divine winter hats made from....... (you guessed it) BAMBOO!

Zooni Mop Top bamboo hats feature one-of-a-kind designs that are guaranteed to turn heads! Each hat is hand knit with love and care from custom made bamboo yarn. Lined with soft fleece or jersey, these hats provide maximum warmth and comfort for your child. The perfect finishing touch to any outfit - and boy are they cute!



Zooni bamboo hats are available in 3 sizes - Small (6-12 months), Medium (12 -24 Months) and Large (2-5 yrs) you can dress your little person in a beautiful, warm and absolutely gorgeous winter hat.


Monkey Caboose has two bamboo styles available - "Dyno-mite" and "Sweet on you" Cupcake and a huge range of other adorable Zooni hats for winter - I just love them!

An award for our environment

What a busy few weeks it has been!
Initially, I was so chuffed to hear that Babyjo had been nominated for an Award at the upcoming Connect2Mums AusMumpreneur Awards to be held in Brisbane on the 31st July.


I was then even more excited to find that we are now a finalist (with 4 others) in the category of "Best Eco Friendly Business". The other finalists are just amazing, each with their own fantastic business that has a strong focus on being eco friendly and environmentally responsible/aware. You can read more about them here at Connect2Mums.
I love the fact that there is a business award for this category, and regardless of the outcome, our world is still better off for the changes that we are all striving to make - Every bit counts!

So.......I have my plane tickets ready (get me out of this chilly Melbourne weather!) and a lovely "frock" ready for the evening, and I am so looking forward to meeting so many fabulous business owners and amazingly talented "Mumpreneurs".


The AusMumpreneur Awards celebrate and recognize those achieving success in the industry, in areas such as business, product development, services and innovation in both online and bricks and mortar businesses from around Australia.



In conjunction with a super 3 day conference, the AusMumpreneur Awards take place at a glamourous Awards dinner at Rydges, Southbank, Brisbane on Saturday 31 July. These awards are the only events of their kind in Australia and will be officially opened by Hon Karen Struthers MP the Minister for Women.

Connect2mums provides a safe and supportive environment for women in online businesses to get together and share information, network and gain support. The site provides members with relevant information and opportunities to interact and socialise with other mums across Australia and New Zealand. Friday night live chats, newsletters, product reviews, real-life events, competitions and articles are just some of the ways women get connected at Connect2mums.

For more information on the the AusMumpreneur Awards visit: www.connect2mums.com.au or you can email connect2mums@gmail.com

Wrapped up in blankets for winter

Firstly, I must apologise for my lack of blogging of late.
Ok - I will be honest - It has a little to do with the onset of winter and desperately wanting to curl up on the couch and stay cosy, a little bit to do with being busy finalising and receiving our latest range of 2 layer bamboo blankets and beanies, and a LOT to do with becoming obsessed with the Twilight Saga..... Strange, I know. I must be about a year or more behind the rest of the world (and I abstained for as long as I did as I KNEW that I would get "sucked into it") but in reality, when the bug bit - it bit hard!
I found myself neglecting work, neglecting the family and walking around trying to cook, clean and sleep with a book under my nose. Addictive is the only word - I read all 4 books in just over a week and a bit (plus 264 pages of Midnight Sun online) and am now just starting Breaking Dawn (the fourth book) for the second time..... Yes - I probably will just finish it tomorrow and then pick up the first book and start all over again, but for now, I am content to just hang out on the couch and read, read, read!
That being said, my reading obsession was interrupted on Friday (thankfully) by the arrival of our shipment of stock for this winter. I wanted to go a bit brighter, a bit bolder and a bit funkier - so Little Akai and Little Apple Blossom have joined our range of blankets, and Natural Eco has made a stunning return (as it was ever so popular and sold out far too quickly).

With thanks to a gorgeous friend of mine and her beautiful bub (not to mention her husband who takes fantastic photos) - we captured the little man (below) testing out the new range!


(- Little Apple Blossom 2 layer bamboo blanket and beanie set) and below (my favourite) Little Akai 2 layer bamboo blanket and beanie set.... What a cutie our little model is!


And our entire range of beanies are finally here - just in time for all those gorgeous winter babies!
So.... It wasn't an entirely unproductive few weeks (chuckle chuckle) - I did manage to get a lot done, even with my "diversions" that I am sure a few of you could relate to! Righty-O, I have a book to read...........

Of course, you will be able to find our gorgeous Aiko Pyjamas and 2 layer blankets at babyO - these will also help to make your little person the comfiest they can possibly be when sleeping.
I love that babyO offer a wide range of choices for eco friendly, natural and soft sleep options to give baby a wonderful night's rest.

Bamboo Addiction

As you may be aware (although just in case I haven't mentioned before) I LOVE bamboo!
I have bamboo growing in big pots around my house, decorative bamboo ladders, lucky bamboo on the kitchen bench and a business- which revolves around.......well, bamboo of course.

So - just to fuel my bamboo obsession a little further - We have added some gorgeous Agoo products (bamboo of course) to our site - all are available immediately and have the same super soft luxury that our very own Babyjo Bamboo clothing and blankets have.


Head over and have a peak here - your little people will love the underwear, socks and leg warmers - they are just too cute!

Punch Your Lunch!

I love it! Our friends over at Monkey Caboose have done it again - just arrived, the Lunch Punch makes lunchtime and sandwiches fun!

Speaking from experience, my 3 year old just won't move past the good old Vegemite sandwich (and even then, she usually pulls the 2 pieces apart, licks off the Vegemite and then leaves the rest!) - not the most nutritious lunch and frustrating for me, as sandwiches can be healthy, interesting and nutritious (not to mention fast and easy to make and take on the run). She is a fantastic "eater" and is happy to much away on most healthy food, she just WONT touch sandwiches for some weird reason.


Enter - The Lunch Punch, an interesting "tool" to add to your parenting toolbox. I was lucky enough to road test one from Monkey Caboose, and I am so impressed. I have never managed to get my little one to eat a full ham sandwich (baby steps here, I will work up to salad and chicken/avocado etc) - but hey presto! The Lunch Punch made the cutest 4 piece puzzle which took her attention and made it plenty of fun - she seemed to forget that she doesn't eat ham sandwiches, and ended up eating the lot AND asking for another puzzle. (I have always loved that she will eat the crusts of her toast and vegemite sandwiches, however the lunch punch does remove these, so I had to just go with it and see!)


With 4 "punches" in each box, you can make one Monster puzzle (great for if you are feeding multiple mouths at the same time) or you can have 4 smaller size puzzles in varying forms. For just $12.95, I highly recommend trying this one out for a bit of fun - great for fairy bread at a party too - make the giant puzzle, and watch them have some fun!

**Disclaimer - Yes, you WILL end up "punching" out your own sandwich into a puzzle - it can't be helped. We take no responsibility for this!

Madeit Love

Oh Gosh - I just had to share this with you, I have just spent the last hour or so engrossed in Made it and searching through all of the beautiful stores that make it....... 'Made It'! I literally can't remember why I started looking there, but I did find some super cute things I wanted to share with you quickly.
(In no particular order mind you.)

On the right, we have a great idea - the 'Colouring book for grownups! Love it - I have sat down so many times and ended up "really trying" to colour in Dora and Boots (in the right colours and inside the lines), so this would be a lovely change - pity they are sold out currently, or I would have bought one!


Next up, I discovered this cute softie toy rattle handmade teether, so cute and very funky - I just have to wait for someone to have a baby so that I can get one as a cute, unique little gift!




Now these next ones have really caught my eye, and I have bookmarked the store to go back later and make a purchase - My little one and I go to the library once a fortnight and always get far too many books to fit into her little book bag that she currently has. How cool are these! I also love the little bird on the canvas - too, too cute. Hmmm - now to pick a colour.

Spending 9 Months Waiting?

Well then, in your "spare time", why not drop over and look around this gorgeous site - 9MonthsWaiting is the stunning result of Cathy's hard work, and boy has she got some gorgeous products on offer!

Not only do I love the name (let's face it, we have all been there, and we know how much time you spend waiting..... waiting to meet your little one, waiting to see if it is a boy or a girl, waiting to see where you are when you go into labour, waiting to work out if the name you have chosen actually fits, waiting to see what labour is really all about - waiting, waiting and waiting) I also love Cathy's ability to combine so many beautiful brands (ours included - he he) into the one store. Clearly a big supporter of bamboo, 9MonthsWaiting has a great selection of bamboo clothing and blankets, along with some gorgeous organic cotton options. I had to narrow down this post, due to the amount of products that I wanted to share with you, so here goes:

An absolute steal - Ergo Pouch Ergococoon (organic cotton) - $19.95 (sale)
This gorgeous 6 piece Cot Set by The Living Textiles Company (Misha Bear set) - $209.95, with everything you need to set up the nursery (yep - while you are waiting!)


These gorgeous Vanchi Bibs (2 in a set) - $12.95 (Guava and Lychee shown) - I love that they pull over the head, I have had many a battle with curly toddler hair that gets caught in the velcro on some bibs - not great when food is involved....
And finally (yes, I did restrain myself on this post!) - Three Little Trees (who i just LOVE) Miso Miso Blanket - on sale for $19.95 (reduced from $39.95) - I believe there may only be one left, so get in quick!
So head over and see Cathy at 9MonthsWaiting - they are having a fantastic sale at the moment - up to 50% off selected items and Australia wide postage starting at only $5.00.

Loopa Bowl - $16.95 - With Spill resistant technology, this funky bowl keeps your toddlers dry food and snacks inside the bowl, not matter what they do with it (wish I had seen these when my little one was this age!)

Stock your wardrobe with Agoo!

As you all know, I am a massive fan of Bamboo! I never thought that it would be possible to make friends in the industry (due to most of my work being done late at night and on my own) however, I love that I have connected with Susan from Agoo and we regularly chat and keep in contact. We talk about bamboo of course, and they have the most gorgeous bamboo leg warmers in their range, but we also support each other and throw round ideas from time to time.

Agoo are having a MASSIVE sale at the moment, and I wanted to share it with you all, because there are some super savings to be had. With up to 50% off their 09/10 Spring/Summer Collection (excluding accessories) there are some fantastic bargains to snap up! Agoo also have a gorgeous range of Active Wear - a special fabric which has some great attributes. With a +50 UPF rating, 4 way stretch, stain resistance and special "wick away" properties to keep kids cool, comfy and protected, it is no wonder that the Agoo Active wear range and bamboo leg warmers are so popular.

My little one Mia has the most gorgeous "Squart" (Yep - you guessed it, a cross between shorts and a skirt) in maroon, with a cute little butterfly and a matching tee to go with it. She wears this with some beautiful Agoo Leg Warmers in winter, or without in summer. I love the fact that she is super comfy, super cute and well protected from the sun's harmful rays. So head over to Agoo and have a look at their gorgeous range when you have time! Happy shopping....

Introducing - The Allergy Shop online

Jumping forward now to another one of our fabulous stockists, I am excited to introduce Kerrie and her online store - The Allergy Shop. The Allergy Shop sells a fantastic range of allergy products, and also provides information and fact sheets on eczema, asthma and allergies. They stock clothing for eczema sufferers (clothing designed with in-built mitts to help children stop scratching), along with our luxuriously soft bamboo baby wear which is great for eczema management. Other products include organic cotton gloves, sensitive-skin sunscreen, wet wrap garments, asthma spacers, allergy shampoo and conditioner, laundry care, organic cotton underwear, eczema cream, allergy-friendly toys, fragrance and chlorine free/biodegradable nappies and more...

Due to bamboo being fabulous for eczema management, I often get asked for things such as scratch mits and wet wrap garments, so it is great to be working with Kerrie and to be able to refer these customers on. It is often hard to find what you need when your child has severe eczema or allergies, however Kerrie has sourced the best from around the globe and presents it all beautifully in their online store.
Here are a few of my favourites:

Organic cotton briefs ($15.00) and singlet ($19.00)

Sunscreen for eczema /sensitive skin EnviroDiscs


I particularly love the EnviroDiscs and hope to try these out one day - similar to soap nuts, you simply pop them in your wash instead of using chemicals or liquid - and "voila" - (here is some more detailed information)

EnviroDisc replaces harsh washing detergents with reusable chemical free washing discs.
- Allergy free and anti-bacterial (killing bacteria such as E.coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Klabsiella pneumonia)
- Chemical free and non-toxic
- Environmentally friendly
- Highly economical (saves more than 50% of the cost over conventional laundry detergents)
- Cleans and softens the fabric but does not add fragrance
- Suitable for top and front loading washing machines and easy to use
- Lasts up to 700 washes for top loaders and 500 washes for front loaders
- Water from the wash can then be used on the garden

For more information visit www.theallergyshop.com.au or phone 0432 237 477 to speak with Kerrie.
