Giving Organic Baby Shower Gifts

Posted: Apr 27, 2011 |Comments: 0 |

Attending a baby shower can be a very fun and exciting time for the friend or family member of any mommy-to-be, but choosing out a gift can be a difficult task. This difficulty can be increased if the new mother is eco-friendly and prefers organic or ‘green' gifts for her baby.

In recent years the ‘going green' trend has become increasingly popular. So it should come as no surprise that many mothers are going green with their babies. Organic baby items are considered both better for the environment and safer for the baby and many mothers are opting for these environmentally friendly options.

Walking into a toy store or the baby section of a department store can be looming, especially if you have never made a baby purchase before. Your first instinct may be to purchase organic cotton receiving blankets or onesies, and these would make excellent gifts for any new mother but chances are that they will receive tons of them. An alternative gift that is very unique is a diaper cake that is made out of organic diapers.

A diaper cake is typically composed of two to four layers of rolled up diapers and made to look like a multi-tiered cake. While many diaper cakes are made with normal diapers, there are some that are composed of organic diapers. Organic diapers are typically chlorine free and are more biodegradable than their normal counterparts. Each layer is wrapped with ribbon and then the ‘cake' is adorned with other baby necessities, such as pacifiers, teething rings, and bath time items. ‘Green' mothers will be sure to enjoy these additional items as they are typically eco-friendly as well.

By giving a baby diaper cake as a gift at a baby shower you are sure to appease the mommy-to-be while offering a beautiful centerpiece. Diapers are an expensive must-have item for all new parents so they make an excellent gift. But just handing over a box of diapers may not feel enough like a gift for some gift-givers. An organic diaper cake is an excellent alternative for those who want to put an extra something special in their eco-friendly gift.
