Cloth Produce Bags from A Greener Kitchen {Review}

You may be asking, what are cloth produce bags and how are they different from cloth sandwich or snack bags?

Well, you know those thin plastic bags you use when you buy fruits and vegetables at the grocery store?

Instead of using those when you shop, you can use a cloth produce bag instead!

The cloth produce bags from A Greener Kitchen are reusable cloth bags for fruits, vegetables, and bulk goods are made in the USA of certified organic cotton. It gets even better--these bags are made from left over fabric from the organic cotton aprons sold at A Greener Kitchen. I love that they've found a green way to use all their fabric. I also learned that 1% of the sale of all organic cotton produce bags is donated to the Organic Consumers Association!

To learn more about our experience with the cloth produce bags, please click on "read more." You can also enter to win a set of your own cloth produce bags here on Why We Love Green now through December 7, 2012!

Maty's Natural Cough Syrup Review

It's the most wonderful time of the year...

There'll be coughing and sneezing,
and everyone wheezing,
and tissues bunched up in a row.
They'll be scary germs swirling,
for help we'll be yearning from remedies
that we love so...

All joking aside, it really is cold and cough season! At my house we've been hit especially hard with 2 colds and now we all have coughs. I am not a fan of regular cough syrups, so I'm really grateful that we have Maty's Buckwheat Honey All Natural Cough Syrup in our home this season.

Through our weeks of on-again off-again colds and coughs, we have turned to Maty's cough remedies, especially for our preschooler and toddler. To hear more about our experience, please click on "read more." You can also enter to win Maty's cough syrup (and some awesome cloth produce bags) for yourself now through December 6, 2012!

Pedoodles Flexible Eco-Friendly Soft Soled Shoes {Review}

Pedoodles shoes are designed to keep your child's feet and the earth healthy!

For foot health for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers, Pedoodles shoes are designed with flexible, flat soles, and a wide toe box. Infant shoes have a soft sole made out of leather, while soles for walkers and runners are made out of flexible recycled rubber to offer traction.

In addition to the recycled rubber in these shoes, the leather in these shoes is made from premium leather remnants. Pedoodles shoes are also free of lead, antimony, arsenic, barium, cadmium, mercury, selenium and harmful amines.

I was so impressed with the earth-friendliness of these flexible soled shoes! It's been hard for me to find shoes for toddlers with truly flexible soles, unless I went with the shoes that were only leather on the bottom. Those are great for younger children, but my 19 month old needs something flexible that also has traction! She loves to climb slides and chase her older brother around the park. Our Pedoodles "Rainforest" shoes have been so wonderful in providing her with flexibility and traction!

Read on for the rest of our review and to see more pictures of adorable Pedoodles shoes! We are also having a giveaway now through December 7, 2012 for an in-stock pair of Pedoodles shoes of your choice! You can enter to win a pair of Pedoodles shoes here.

Pedoodles Soft Soled Baby Shoes Giveaway! (ends 12/7/12) #GreenChristmas

Welcome to the Green Christmas Giveaway Hop, where you can win an adorable and eco-friendly pair of flexible soled shoes from Pedoodles!

This Green Giveaway event is hosted by Happy Mothering, Going Green with Grizls and The Reynolds Mom. 50+ members of the Green Moms Network have come together to offer you tons of chances to win green-themed Christmas gifts!

Pedoodles shoes are flexible to keep young feet healthy. They feature a wide toe box for proper foot development and are made from eco-friendly premium leather remnants. The soles are extremely flexible, yet offer good traction, and they are made from recycled materials! These shoes are wonderful for my 19 month old daughter, who still needs flexible soles but also needs more traction than most soft-soled shoes can provide. (For example, she needs to be able to climb plastic slides in cold weather!) Pedoodles also offers leather-soled shoes for crawlers and beginner walkers. You can read my full Pedoodles review here.


To enter to win a pair of adorable Pedoodles shoes and to read more about Pedoodles, please read on to access the Rafflecopter form below. Good luck! (You also won't want to miss the Grand Prize for this event! Details below.)

Woolino Baby Sleep Bag Giveaway! (US/CAN; ends 12/26/12) #woolinobaby

As you know, it's not safe to use blankets for little babies, nor is it safe to keep a baby's room at a high temperature. This can be problematic for families that live in colder climates. What's the solution to keeping baby warm? There is no better way than a cozy baby sleep sack. 

Unfortunately so many baby sleep sacks on the market right now are made of synthetic materials that can cause the baby to overheat and may actually increase the risk factor for SIDS. Woolino comes to the rescue by creating all natural 100% Australian merino wool baby sleep bags that keep baby warm at night in any season.Wool is a natural and breathable material that will allow for good temperature regulation without being too hot or too cold.

Right now you can win a Woolino Baby Sleep Bag! Read on for more information about the Woolino Sleep Bag and enter to win the giveaway by filling out the Rafflecopter form below.

Seventh Generation Sanitizing Products & Tissue Craft {Review}

We are big fans of letting the kids clean the house, whenever we can actually get that to happen. With Seventh Generation cleaners, I can allow my children to clean with me without worrying that they are absorbing scary chemicals through their skin and through the fumes of regular cleaners. That's because Seventh Generation is all-natural and designs its products with cleanliness, the health of the family, and the health of the earth in mind.

Now that it's cold and flu season, we need to pay special attention to sanitizing areas of our home that are covered in germs, like remotes and door handles. This is especially true if you've had vsitors or someone in your home already has a cold or flu. You don't want to be sharing germs through the family!
