PRODUCT REVIEW - Fierce Hugs

 

Fierce Hugs' high quality organic baby shirts and baby onesies are made with fair labor and are designed by independent illustrators for cool and original graphics.  Each shirt or onesie is packaged in a cool eco-friendly gift box and makes a great baby shower gift. Fierce Hugs is a member of the Organic Trade Association and even offers a free return policy.

Details:  0-12 mths, Shirts available in 12-24 mths. Several designs from which to choose

Purchase:  $24.00 from Fierce Hugs

Product Review:  The first thing I noticed about the fierce hugs product is of course the packaging.  The shirt came in an eco-friendly box with a cutout so that you can see the design of the shirt. Very cool.  The shirt itself is made of 100% organic cotton, which feels sturdy and durable yet soft.  AZO-free low-impact dyes are used and the colors are vibrant and rich.  The graphics are adorable and unique - I got the rain-cloud print and I love it! 

Bottom line: great products for your eco-friendly and fashionable baby (they make a great gift too!)

PRODUCT REVIEW - Solana Swaddle Wrap

The Solana Swaddle Wrap is used to sooth and calm babies.  The Wrap is designed to help prevent overheating and is lightweight enough to be used as a breathable sunshade or nursing cover.  Made with 100% organic cotton (trimmed with 100% organic cotton sateen) that uses no pesticides, unnatural chemicals or insecticides.      

Details:  45"x45", Available in Baby Tree, Pure Hugs (shown), and Flower Child (shown) patterns, Can be used to swaddle babies up to 20 lbs.

Purchase:  $35.95 from Solana Swaddle Wrap

Product Review:  First let me start with the material - it's the most delicious organic cotton I have ever felt.  It is soft and light, the perfect weight for a swaddle wrap.  It's large as well, 45"x45" to be exact.  And because it is so lightweight, it is perfect as a sunshade or a nursing cover too.  The Wrap comes with easy to follow instructions that teach you the best way to wrap your baby.  The Solana Swaddle Wrap website is great because it includes medical information that supports the use of swaddle wraps in preventing overheating and SIDs as well as information on the best way to swaddle wrap your baby.

Bottom Line: this Wrap is beautiful, it has many uses and it serves as a great way to calm and comfort your baby.
