3 Gifts the Eco-Conscious Mom Can’t Live Without

Eco-conscious moms share a bond that keeps an innovative world on track for bettering the earth. So, what can you get for this special lady that recycles, makes compost and cans fresh vegetables? Here are 3 great ideas that save time, money, the environment and may be something that Eco-Mom has been wishing for.

Wool Dryer Balls

Made out of pure New Zealand wool, these soft tennis-ball sized, natural fabric softeners, eliminate the need for ever buying another box of chemically-enhanced dryer sheets.

  • Keeps clothes remarkably soft
  • Eliminates static cling
  • Lasts for 500 loads of drying
  • Does not harm the environment
  • Uses a renewable source – wool

Not to be confused with the dryer balls that are advertised in department stores, wool dryer balls are chemical-free, all natural and have no scent.

Infusing Water Bottle

Getting kids to drink more water can sometimes be like forcing medicine down their throats. Flat and boring, water gets to be old news before long. An infusing water bottle (such as the Aqua Zinger at $25.95) is made to extract the juice from your favorite fruits and vegetables, giving your water a refreshing new twist. A quick shake is all that is required to keep the flavor renewed and abundant.

  • Self Contained
  • No harmful parts
  • Small enough to be portable
  • Reusable and sustainable
  • Perfect for kids

If there is one thing that Eco-conscious moms love, it is the ability to care for children in a safe, natural way. This awesome gadget provides healthy, rich vitamins from fruits and vegetables, and integrates into much needed water, for better bodies.

Bamboo Charcoal Deodorizer

Save mom the trouble of trying to clean pet areas or coping with smelly gym bags by giving her a natural charcoal deodorizer that lifts and eliminates odors. The Moso bamboo plant is highly renewable, growing over two feet in a single day and produces extremely porous charcoal, naturally, unlike any other type.

  • Conveniently packaged for immediate use
  • Lasts for an entire year
  • Rechargeable by placing in the sun
  • Contains no chemicals or harmful ingredients
  • Removes odors instead of merely covering the scent

Mom will find these small packets of bamboo charcoal perfect for drawers, closets, shoes, and any other area that needs a bit of renewing, without the worry of using harsh chemicals.

The ingenuity of a world-wide society, has made it possible to solve problems of waste and pollution, without spending a lot of extra time. Select a gift for your mom this year that will become a welcome part of her efforts in keeping her family and the planet safe. They will be more welcome than a box of chocolates or more decorative, kitchen towels.
