Moms Make Impact with Eco-Friendly Baby Products

by Linda St.Cyr, Contributing Writer

Earth Monkeys, an online store that features baby and toddler products, has officially launched. A store featuring products for babies and toddlers isn’t all that unique but Earth Monkey’s is special in that their products are eco-friendly and made from recycled materials.

Founders of Earth Monkey’s, Lindsay McPhail and Gena Hansen, are moms from Oregon who know what it is like to be on the go. Yet they still want to be environmentally conscious and make an impact on moms across the globe. Hansen explains what the mission of Earth Monkey’s is, "Sometimes it's hard to be environmentally conscious. It can be expensive to buy all eco-friendly products for your family, but we think every little bit counts! Our mission is to make it possible for any parent to make eco-friendly decisions for their household without breaking the bank or piling more work on an already hectic schedule!"

A patent is currently pending for the products that Earth Monkey’s sells. These products include the “bib-in-a-bag”, “paci-pak”, and “porta-pad”, all made from 100% recycled plastic bottles. The ingenuinity of the products lies not only in its eco-friendliness aspect but also in the convenience aspect. Each product folds up and fits into a lightwieght bag that can be attached easily to a diaper bag, purse or key chain making it easy to get to and easy to use.

The Earth Monkey Moms have added a blog to their storefront because, “Being a mom is hard...so we want to create a place where we can share and be vulnerable...and we want you to feel comfortable doing the same!” So in addition to looking over the cool eco-friendly products, you can vent, relax and chill out with other moms.
