Use Baby Bibs to Protect their Clothing
By Richard Cooper
Any parent will agree that baby bibs are one of the best inventions ever made for your newborn. Parents can save a lot of money by using them to safeguard the babys clothes from stains from the food they consume. Very often when babies are being fed milk from a baby bottle or baby food from a bowl and even when they are teething they can make quite a mess of the clothes they are wearing. Wearing baby bibs eliminates all these problems and permanent stains on new clothes are avoided.
There are a variety of baby bibs that are available for sale. There are some which are made of vinyl where the food slides off and enters a pocket at the lower end of the bib. The pocket will retain the food till it is cleaned out. Then there are other kinds of bibs which are made of absorbent cloth which soaks up the liquids spilled on it. These bibs are a great way of maintaining the clothes of your newborn or infant in good condition. And now you get an even more innovative kind of baby bottle bib which catches the milk or baby food as it drips from the bottle.
Baby bibs are an extremely essential item for the parents of every newborn. They make sure that not only the baby clothes but the baby too are kept clean. A new baby coming into your family or friends circle is a joyous occasion. You would like to give the new baby something that the parents would find useful and practical. Baby clothing is a good idea; you can have a baby gown, a baby bib, booties and a perhaps a baby cap.
Other ideas for baby showers can include essentials for sleeping like soft baby blankets, baby pillows, baby sheets or soft baby toys. A CD with soft music can be also quite soothing to a newborn baby. But of all the baby shower gift ideas the best is the baby bibs which really come in useful and help you maintain your babys clothes.
For bath time you can get a newborn baby the wholes set of requisites for bath time like baby washcloths, baby towels, baby soap, baby powder, baby lotion and baby bath toys. But if you prefer to gift baby bibs then there are some sites which even let you choose your own design and have it printed or embroidered as per your tastes or you can pick one of the readymade ones already available. Baby bibs have come a long way from the traditional bibs that we have always known which lie on the chest and are tied behind the neck. Now you get bibs which go on the bottle and catch the liquid before it gets to baby or his or her clothes.
Baby bibs are a great gift to give any newborn baby and are always welcome. So if you have to attend a baby shower or are visiting a new baby, check them out here!
Bamboo Sheets: An Eco-Friendly Choice
By Arthor Pens
With the ever increasing need to make sound ecological choices, we may look to bamboo fabrics to add an environmentally-friendly touch of luxury to our homes. Bamboo sheets and towels offer a better choice for the conscientious consumer.
Bamboo Basics
Humans have been making use of bamboo for centuries. Some of its many uses are building materials, weaving, paper, medicine, food, charcoal & textiles.
Bamboo is a woody grass that grows extremely fast some species up to four feet a day. Much like your lawn, after cutting, it will grow back with no need to replant. A stand of bamboo will resemble a forest of trees, though bamboo will reach maturity in just one growing season. There are more than 1500 species of bamboo worldwide. The species most commonly used for textiles is Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys Pubescens), which grows primarily in large areas of eastern China. Unlike cotton crops, bamboo thrives without pesticides or fertilizers due to its unique antimicrobial property (called Bamboo Kun). It does not require irrigation, and can survive periods of drought as well as flooding. Bamboo produces 30% more oxygen, and takes in more carbon dioxide than an equivalent stand of trees. It is also an excellent inhibitor of soil erosion. Bamboo has been called natures most sustainable resource
Bed, Bath & Bamboo
Bamboo fabric retains the anti-microbial and anti-fungal properties of the bamboo plant, making it an excellent choice for sheets, bedding, and towels. Bamboo sheets actually repel & kill bacteria, fungus, and dust mites! Think of the advantage this has for those with allergies, as well as the rest of us. If youve ever seen those magnified photographs of dust mites that are prevalent in all of our homes, you will appreciate this quality. Bamboo fabrics are a healthier choice for all of us, but particularly those with allergies or chemical sensitivities.
Bamboo sheets are thermal regulating; helping to keep you cooler in the summer & warmer in cold weather. Bamboo is moisture-wicking (draws moisture away from the body - letting it evaporate), and resistant to mold and mildew which helps to prevent odors. Bamboo towels are more absorbent and dry much faster than their cotton counterparts. As an added benefit, bamboo sheets and towels are luxuriously soft; far softer than even the highest thread count cotton. These same qualities make bamboo a great fabric for clothing.
But What Will the Pandas Eat?
As bamboo products gain in popularity, some have expressed concern for the Pandas food source. Bamboo makes up 99% of the Pandas diet and they eat over 30 different species of bamboo. Pandas feed where the lower leaves of bamboo are easily accessible. Moso bamboo has no leaf growth on the first 5 meters of the stem and is therefore not a source of food for the panda.
You can luxuriate guilt-free in bamboo sheets knowing they are good for our environment, and even the Giant Pandas dont mind!
When you think of bamboo fabrics; think organic, soft, fresh, dry, and eco-friendly.
