When searching for gifts for new mums, the sheer volume of choice can be overwhelming, at best. If you are looking for something special that is not just chic, but also kinder to the planet, then don’t despair. Thankfully there are lots of eco-friendly options out there – it’s just a matter of knowing where to look.
Being environmentally conscious as a parent can be a tough task from day one – in the weeks you become a parent, you’ve never been more baffled by the size of your bins bulging with nappies, breast pads, wipes and – yes – some clothes that even the hottest of washes can’t save. That’s why Huggies® is dedicated to easing some of your eco-guilt as a new parent. Their Pure Biodegradable Baby Wipes are fully biodegradable and created with 100% skin loving, naturally derived fibres, to gently clean and protect your baby’s skin while reducing your impact on the environment. The Huggies Tiniest Footprint mission means they are striving to be as gentle on the planet as they are on baby’s skin.Being eco-friendly as a parent can be a tough task from day one – in the weeks you become a parent, you’ve never been more baffled by the size of your bins bulging with nappies, breast pads, wipes and – yes – some clothes that even the hottest of washes can’t save.
