Product Review: I received the hat shown above and one of the basic soy t-shirts and I have to say that it is one of my favorite products and websites so far. The soybean fiber products are great - they are made of soybean fiber and cotton and are so soft that you would never know the difference. The material is a good quality and the look is oh-so-cute. I especially love the personalization - such a nice touch. And last, but certainly not least, is the price. You can get environmentally onesies and shirts for a mere $7-$12.00. In fact, most of the items on their site are very reasonably priced.

Product Review: What an adorable romper! I have never seen such beautiful organic cotton - it is thick yet the inside is super soft, perfect for little baby's skin. It is a heavy weight which will be ideal for cooler weather. And the design is ultra modern and chic which is a bonus. I also received a copy of this great book - The Green Eaters. It's a story about five farm animals who want to live a better life and who get their wish when they are moved to an organic farm. Talk about original! It's such a great idea and a book your children will love!
