    I am always on a quest to find the best reusable containers for just about everything.  One thing I refuse to do is buy bottled water.  It’s wasteful and unnecessary and I just can’t bring myself to spend money on a case of plastic bottles. It pains me.  So I rely primarily on my reusable water bottles [...]

      I was looking around my house not long ago and wondering how I ended up with so many plastic toys.  It shows up and it accumulates. My biggest peeve with most plastic toys is not that it may not be recyclable or clog up a landfill, but that many times the plastic stuff only entertains them for [...]

        Kate Ferry of SacredBee.net is providing her debut guest article for SafeMama.com on the topic of Mattresses and Off-gassing. Please read on to learn more from our knowledgeable writer! The term “off-gassing” has become a hot-button topic when it comes to considering clean air in our homes and environment.  Off-gassing, or outgassing as it’s also [...]

          With all the Holiday excitement, it’s easy to forget simple safety measures that could keep you and your family safe.  Fraying wires, dry trees, candles and dead-battery smoke alarms can all pose risks when you’re too busy wrapping gifts.  The Underwriters Laboratory,a leading independent safety organization, is calling all parents, specifically moms, to set aside [...]

            Hi! I know it’s been quiet around here but I’ve had a lot going on in my personal life that’s kept me from the million articles I want to write.  Anyway, I’m back though I won’t deny enjoying the break.  In my absence the wonderful people at MightyNest have offered a really generous giveaway to [...]

              I baby proofed my home with my first son and never had too much trouble with him getting into dangerous places.  He was content enough to hurt himself on the plain old driveway more than anything else.  With my second however, it’s a totally different story.  He gets into everything, touches everything and pays attention [...]

                I get an email about those foam puzzle piece mats about once a week.  If you have emailed me recently about it and I didn’t respond it’s because I have been rolling this one around in my brain for a while and I don’t have a “best” case scenario to offer you.  But what I [...]

                  We did a Laundry Detergent Cheat Sheet a little while ago and while publishing it, I was introduced to Rockin’ Green by a reader.  Having never tried it I was really curious to and coincidentally I got an email from the lovely Giselle at Granola Babies.  If you haven’t seen their site it’s a great [...]

                    We’ve talked about hand sanitizers before and whether you are anti or pro on-the-go hand sanitizers there is one thing we all can agree on is safety in ingredients for our little ones.  I cringe at the sight of kids getting slathered with blobs of alcohol based gels at school and indoor playgrounds. But I [...]

                      One of the first things that went in my house when we started to green (during the whole BPA boom of ’07) was conventional cleaning products. Since then, we’ve tried many green cleaning products. And of course, what do we SafeMama girls do best? That’s right, my friends, cheat sheets. We’d be remiss if we [...]
