Bedding
Organic cotton is the way to go these days. A new mom can find an array of baby items made from 100% organic cotton.

This makes it low impact on the environment and ensures new moms that one less chemical is making contact with baby's skin.

Baby gear made from organic fibers is also available. A company called Nature's Purest has launched a line of baby gear that is covered in organic natural colored cotton. Their line includes a high chair, bouncy seat, swing and even a portable play yard. One of their top sellers is a bassinet.
Skin Care
Some of the most widely used natural products for infants are skin care items. There are a wide range of choices that include shampoos, locations, soaps, sunscreens and diaper rash creams. One product that is new for infants is an organic calming spray. It is produced by Nature's Baby Organics and has a soothing lavender smell that uses aromatherapy to calm and relax baby. Mom simply sprays it on the infant's bedding or favorite blanket.
Food
Organic baby food production has increased greatly over the past five years. You can find organic infant food right on the grocers' shelf. Before it was only found in health and specialty stores. Many parents today are even making their own organic baby food by pureeing fresh organic fruits and veggies at home.

BPA is the abbreviation for Bisphenol A, a harmful compound that has been known to leach from some plastics when holding hot or warm liquids.
Toys
With all of the lead paint and BPA plastic scares of late, parents are turning more and more to all natural wooden toys for their infants. This trend has increased the popularity of wooden toys and cloth faced dolls. For infants, wooden rattles and teething rings can be found as well as wooden clench toys with bright fabrics that stimulate baby.
