amilies and new babies are seen as major consumers by advertisers: this is a time in your life when you're expected to be buying lots of new things and you're targeted in all directions with free gifts, money-off vouchers and attractive deals. It is tempting to go off on a spending spree and buy lots of lovely things for the newborn. By thinking about what you buy and why you buy it can you can become a more eco-friendly parent.
Being an environmentally friendly parent for babies involves buying products and services that are eco friendly and baby friendly. The range of products is increasing weekly as parents wake up to the green revolution.
What can I buy?
The real question for eco parents is: what can't I buy? but you don’t need to always buy new, you can re-use items already in existence, the less new items you buy the more ecologically friendly your new family will be! Baby clothes are easy and good-value to buy secondhand and because babies grow so fast, they tend to be hardly worn. Other items to look for in secondhand and charity shops include cot linen, soft furnishings, bouncy chairs and inflatable baby nests.
