Tips When Choosing Organic Baby Clothing

 The modern world is full of baby products, clothes, accessories, toys and more, but many of which are made poorly, cheaply and some even from dangerous and toxic materials. These are not just a health risk to the babies who wear them, they are also a risk to anyone using such products. As a result, there has been a growing pushback from some parents who are demanding something better. Products that are not damaging the environment in their manufacturing, organic materials that are safe for their babies and greener accessories. Something like Nature Baby, focussed on using sustainable materials and designing more natural baby clothing. At the moment that means paying more, but when you consider who it is for this is something most parents can manage and live with.

Choosing between organic and non-organic baby clothing and accessories

A lot of people consider the debate between organic and non-organic and then tend to fall on one side or the other. Those who argue for organic clothing, and companies with a more humble production scale as being better for the environment like Susukoshi feel that firstly, babies are a lot more sensitive so it makes sense to ensure their clothing is not harmful to them. A lot of babies have allergic reactions to synthetic materials. With the right choices, parents can also do better for the environment as well as for their children.

Those who are on the other side of the debate feel that organic clothing has become more of a statement or status thing to many people. Parents who can afford it show off that their babies are in all natural materials, and that they do not really care about why organic clothing is better in the first place. There are though some people who are doing it for the right reasons. Choosing plat mats, cotton bibs, bedding and more that are non-synthetic because it is better for the planet and for the children, but without making it a big deal. The choice you make is your own, and is a personal one down to things like income and what you believe is important and what needs your baby might have.

Things to avoid if you want to dress your baby more naturally

When you are buying accessories and clothes and you do want to buy more naturally then you need to look at makers like Nature Baby. Avoid materials like polyester, and also avoid clothing that is very dark as those contain a lot of synthetic dyes. Avoid clothing that has been treated with resins that are formaldehyde-based too.

Conclusion

When deciding on synthetic or natural clothing and sustainable accessories as with Susukoshi the latter tends to be safer for babies. But it can be hard to ensure everything is organic when things can cost more. For example, something like an organic mattress is expensive. Do your best, and perhaps choose what you can. In the crib example, if you cannot manage the mattress, get what you can afford but choose great sheets, blankets, and other bedding that is organic.
