A different kind of nesting
Writing for CMP I’m exposed to a ton of the most unique, clever and eco-friendly products around, but I have to admit, this may be the one that combines those three elements the best for me so far. The Baby Egg Nest by The Baby Bunch gets major props for its huge “oooooh,” and “awwww” factor, making it a perfect baby gift.
The packaging itself is almost too cute to unwrap, but you’ll be glad you did. Inside there’s a tiny metallic bird’s nest, complete with soft moss-like lining. But the real gift are the three 100% organic cotton socks rolled to look like little pink or blue eggs, along with a beautiful lavender-scented bird sachet.
The gift set is less than $20, and the sachet and nest can be used long after your baby outgrows the socks. I have to say, whoever hatched up this baby gift is a genius. -Betsy

Congratulations to Lesli C, lucky winner of the Baby Egg Nest in Blue!
I never thought twice about diapering my son with the eco-not-so-conscious disposable diaper. I have to admit, I thought that cloth diapers were still big cotton towels that required safety pins, manual dexterity, and a whole lot of free time.
Don’t get any sick ideas, dear readers. We’ve all seen our share of those softies and we certainly don’t need a stuffed one of THOSE laying around the house. 
When my 3 year old was a newborn we planned a trip to Europe and before I could say auf viedersehn, my brain pictured all the filthy traveling potties we would encounter while changing her diaper.
