Skin Care For Sensitive Babies

Babies have a tendency to get rashes or skin irritations because they have such fine, delicate skin. Wet or soiled nappies often cause quite red patches which can be painful for a little baby. It is best if medical cortisone-based creams can be avoided, as though they may appear to work in the short term, they can have bad long-term affects on a baby's skin and health.
We really don't want to expose a little baby's body to toxic chemicals. Organic skin care products are completely chemical-free and safe for your infant. Using all-natural skin care products will reduce the risk of rashes and protect baby's health. Also, using organic cotton nappies will provide added protection from chemicals affecting baby's skin.
For a range of baby organic skin care products visit http://www.naturebub.com/skincare. There is a lovely gentle and safe gel to cleanse and soothe baby's bottom, a soothing barrier balm that repels moisture, protects sensitive skin and helps irritated skin to heal, an extra gentle baby cream wash, a baby bottom mist spray to soothe and cleanse, and other useful skin products. All are free of synthetic detergents and chemicals.

This Sunday and every Sunday up to Christmas, (weather being kind), we will be having a stall at Northey Street Organic Markets in Windsor, Brisbane.

We'd love to see you there!

Delicious Healthy Snacks for Kids

I was trying to find something for my little girl to have for morning tea yesterday and the cupboard was pretty much bare. I did find some popping corn there though, so I made her some. She asked for it to be sweet so I tried using Agave Nectar as it is healthier than sugar....
I'm happy to say it turned out deliciously, unlike some of my other kitchen experiments.

Here's the recipe..

1 TBSP Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 Cup popping corn
2 TBSP Butter (organic)
2 TBSP Agave nectar

Warm oil in stainless steel pan. (Non stick pans are Toxic)
Add corn an then cover it and gently shake the pan continuously until corn is finished popping.
Pour corn into a bowl, add the butter and syrup to the pan, stir. When melted pour over popped corn and stir through til it's all covered.

Yummy!

If you are interested in finding out more about the benefits of agave nectar there are plenty of website with info, here's one HERE.

Things Are Warming Up!

The warmer weather is on its way and we have some lovely little Lapsaky vintage style rompers to keep bubba cool. Made with organic cotton jersey you can be sure that your baby is wearing pure, natural clothing that won't harm him/her in any way.

Snaps off at the front for easy on/off and has 3 snaps at the back to allow for an extra size or 2 of growth.
