Get In (Winter) Gear!
If the slopes, the trails, or even the backyard are beckoning, it’s time to gear up—winter gear, that is. We want our kids to have the right stuff, but sometime it's hard to find the perfect fit. No worries—we’ve got you covered. Literally.
If you’re searching for winter boots, Sorel has ones that are warm and stylish, and the Children’s Yoot Pac model even has a recycled felt inner boot lining. How cool—and environmentally responsible—is that? The inner boot is also removable and washable.
When layering is the way to go, check out greenedgekids.com. Their organic fleece hoodies and vests are made of recycled fabrics with low-impact dyes (plus they’re totally cute) and when you buy a Sustainable Kids Green Fleece hoody, part of the proceeds go to the Hands and Feet Project’s Children’s Village in Haiti. They’ll even send you a box with prepaid shipping so you can send small donations to Haiti yourself. Now that’s feel-good clothing.
Skiward bound? EMS has everything from snowshoes for the youngest adventurers (Check out the TUBBS Kids Snowflake Snowshoes) to kids’ ski helmets, boots and poles. And the company is just as concerned about the environment as you are—they’ve teamed up with the Conservation Alliance to help fund conservation projects.
Doesn’t the name Danish Woolen Delight just make you feel toasty already? Check out this home-based business for their adorable Nelson hats and kids’ wool long johns (sheared by hand, no pesticides, chemically untreated).
