Being mindful of the planet during the holiday season is huge. We can purchase products that are sustainable, handcrafted and made by small businesses to make a big change out there. These companies are eco and many are small. Happy Holidays!
ECO TOYS MADE FROM WOOD (and felt) I’m mainly posting about this company because I secretly want everything that they make. Absolutely gorgeous toys made from sustainable rubberwood and for every tree that becomes a toy, another is replanted. I’m also pretty obsessed with this felt campfire. How cool to get kids a tent AND campfire! Look here.
MAKE IT YOURSELF that kids can make themselves is a great idea. Not only will it help build their self-esteem, but they’ll be off of their screens and it may even spark more creativity in them, too. Check out these from small businesses here.
RECYCLED PLASTIC TOYS These toys are made from recycled plastic bottles and are just as great as any other toy out there. From trucks to tea sets, they have everything. I’ve been a fan of these forever! Let’s use the plastic we already have out there! Shop here.
ECO-FRIENDLY CRAYONS that are utterly adorable. Many are handmade from soy and non-toxic earth minerals. Plus, many are made by small businesses! Affordable, too. Shop here.
HANDCRAFTED SLIPPERS When you buy from a small business, you’re making someone really happy on the other end. I love to buy a handcrafted item from an artist. These slippers are handcrafted and beautiful! Handcrafted slippers for kids. Shop small and handcrafted! Shop here.
ECO-FRIENDLY COATS Okay, kids would most likely prefer toys, but if you do need to get a coat for a kid, may I recommend looking into these J. Crew kids’ coats made with PrimaLoft? PrimaLoft filling is spun from recycled plastic bottles. By making these coats, they’ve saved over 1,044,646 plastic bottles (57,577 pounds of plastic) from oceans and landfills. Check out these cute coats here.
ECO-FRIENDLY DOUGH This molding dough is dyed with soy-based, nontoxic organic and inorganic pigments. This long lasting modeling dough is safe and ready to create. Organic rosemary essential oil, vitamin E oil and soy oil help to keep the dough soft and pliable during play, while providing a light and fresh aroma. Shop here.
