A 100% packaging free grocery store! How much greener can you get!?

A friend of mine shared an article with me from Time Magazine just the other day and it's so cool that I must share it with you all.

The article is about a new grocery store, one-of-a-kind, located in Austin of course!  (aren't all the cool things in Austin? so, not, fair...)  The grocery store will be called in.gredients and it will sell only 100% package free products.  They hope to open in October but are still trying to meet their fundraising goals.

The TIME Magazine article points out...
Americans throw away 1.4 billion pounds of waste every day, and 40% of it comes from one-time packaging. But it's hard trying to be a conscious recycler after a while because of the double or triple wrappings for every product.
I think this is exciting news, a great step, more of a leap in my opinion, in the right direction.  Green concepts like these really get me excited about the future for our children and their children and I look forward to more innovative business concepts such as this one.

To learn more about in.gredients please watch this nice little youtube video about them and/or read the TIME Magazien article linked to above.

Piggy Paint! A safe, non-toxic nail-polish for kids! It's as natural as MUD!

Have you heard of Piggy Paint?  It's a non-toxic nail polish that's safe for kids.  You might be wondering...Does it work?  Yes!  It's safe and it works just like regular chemical based nail polishes.

Piggy Perks:

  • Non-toxic
  • Low Odor
  • Water-based formula
  • Hypoallergenic
  • Fun, vibrant colors
  • Dries to a hard, durable finish
  • Cruelty-free
  • Safe for use during Pregnancy!
Want to read about how Piggy Paint was born?  Read the excerpt below from Melanie, the founder of Piggy Paint!
One day while we were painting nails over a foam plate, my daughter dropped a glob of her solvent-based polish onto the plate. Shortly after, the paint began to bubble and “ate” through the plate. I looked in dismay at the hole in the plate and decided to test all of her other “kid” polishes on the foam. Within minutes, ALL of the solvent-based polishes began to bubble and eventually left big holes in the plate (Click to see plate). From that day on, I decided that any flammable substance that could eat through foam was unacceptable for my children’s fingernails, which would inevitably end up in their mouths.

My quest was on, and Piggy Paint was born. As you may have guessed, our polish is NOT flammable and sits beautifully on the unaffected foam. We hope you enjoy this water-based polish that is specially formulated of natural ingredients. Finally, a kid-friendly polish without the accompanying drawbacks of traditional polishes. It is free of formaldehyde, toluene, phthalates, biphenyl A, ethyl acetate and acetone... and made in the USA!
Luvaboos is proud to carry Piggy Paint, both online and in our store! Visit us today and you'll have pretty piggies in no time!

Importance of Protecting Your Child's Eyes from the Sun!

There are a plethora of good and bad habits are kids are bound to learn from us.  Some are accidental, some intentional, some we may even go to great lengths to teach.  From hygiene and manners to healthy eating habits, the list of lessons we hope to impress on our little ones is endless.

One seemingly unimportant and often completely forgotten practice, is teaching your children the importance of protecting their eyes from the sun.  If you start early, your better off, not just because your child's eyes will be protected, but because they'll be used to and accustomed to wearing sunglasses and are more likely to use them later in life.

The suns powerful ultra violet rays are most powerful between 10am-2pm and so these are the ideal times to teach your children to wear their eye wear.  Ultra violet over exposure is even more common in high altitudes, sandy beaches, snowy areas and near bodies of water which can reflect the suns harmful rays.  It's common to believe that as long as your child is in the shade of a stroller or umbrella that they're not at risk, but this is simply not true.

Fair skin and light color eyed children are more at risk than darker skinned, dark eyed children, but it's equally as important for all children to have their eyes protected.

Over exposure to the sun's harmful rays can cause cancer, cataracts, loss of vision, unsightly  sun spots on the eyes, infection and more.  Onset of these problems is not limited to the elderly, young people and children are susceptible as well. 

What about cheap sunglasses?  Cheap sunglasses are not a good idea.  Simply wearing dark plastic "toy" sunglasses can actually leave little kids worse off then wearing none at all.  The dark coating can cause pupils to dilate and if not properly protected they can be more more "open" to exposure from the the suns rays.  Sunglasses must block 99-100% UVA or UV400 rays.

Luvaboos is proud to carry children's sunglasses that are sure to be comfortable, affordable and protect your little one's eyes.  Visit Luvaboos today and check out our selection.

Toxic Toys: Should you worry?

Ever heard of Phthalates? I bet you have.  Phthalates, pronounced "thal-ates," are chemical substances found in the obvious plastic toys, feeding utensils and many many more items designed for use by and with children. They're also found in a lot less obvious products like shampoos, makeups, sunscreens and other consumable products.

From Wikipedia,
Phthalates are used in a large variety of products, from enteric coatings of pharmaceutical pills and nutritional supplements to viscosity control agents, gelling agents, film formers, stabilizers, dispersants, lubricants, binders, emulsifying agents, and suspending agents.


They are also primarily used as plasticizers (substances added to plastics to increase their flexibility, transparency, durability, and longevity).

Phthalate Exposure,
Phthalates are easily released into the environment because there is no covalent bond between the phthalates and plastics in which they are mixed. As plastics age and break down, the release of phthalates accelerates.

Phthalates, now banned from use in toys in Europe, have been thought to be linked to infertility in boys as well as putting the general public at risk of many other health problems due to exposure.


So, although brief, it's obvious just from the above known uses of and exposure to phthalates in our every day lives, it doesn't make sense to knowingly purchase toys which contain phthalates.

Because the risks of phthalate exposure are becoming more and more well known and publicized, there are now more phthalate free toy options than ever before.

Companies like Plan Toys, HABA toys, Green toys and more have really gone above and beyond to provide parents with a healthy more natural alternative with phthalate-free toys.  Now toys, just as cute and fun as their toxic alternatives are being made with recycled plastics, natural woods, non-toxic paints and more.

Visit Luvaboos today for a great selection of natural, eco-friendly and non-toxic toys for your little ones.

Fun with Feeding: Tips, Tricks and more!

I'm sure you've heard of the Sneaky Chef, Missy Lapine and her book Sneaky Chef:  Simple Strategies for Hiding Healthy Foods in your Kids Favorite Meals.  Her work has been featured on tv show after tv show and her book is a bestseller and favorite among moms everywhere.

It's true.  Sometimes, perhaps most of the time, you need a gimmick to get kids to eat healthy, this includes going to great lengths to disguise your healthy ingredients among other things.

Applying some of Missy's brilliant recipes and secret ingredients to your everyday foods will get you a leg up on your picky eater, but there are other tips to getting your kids to eat as well.

Try a special bib or placemat, that they get to pick, and save it especially for dinner time.  Or opt for a special plate and bowl set or unique and fun eating utensils like the Constructing Eating Utensils we carry at Luvaboos.

Use a food dehydrator to turn those healthy fruits and veggies into crunchy or chewy snack-like finger foods.  Apples, bananas, sweet potatoes, pineapple and more dehydrate in just hours and your kids won't be able to resist.

Turn healthy treats into frozen delights by freezing them!  Fill your basic ice tray with yogurt, leftover smoothie mix, natural juice and more and give to your little ones when they're looking for a desert. I guarantee they'll love these yummy new popsicles you've invented.

Let your little ones help in the kitchen!  Often just allowing them to crack an egg, stir or pour some ingredients, etc. will give them that extra desire to try something new, especially if you remind them that "they made it!"

Well these are just a few of my easy tips and tricks for getting little ones to eat.  Do you have any advice you'd like to share?
