Whispers of fall are already in the air, with the pressing heat of June and July beginning to give way to August. But while the seasons may be on the verge of change, one thing remains the same: the strong commitment of eco-conscious companies to the stewardship of the planet. Origany, the company that specializes in “Clothing Made Organic by Nature”, is already looking forward to cooler times. Origany is known for the splash it made by partnering with Ovie Mughelli of the Atlanta Falcons to create the Eco-Athlete collection. Now, it’s taking on the slide from summer to fall with the same passion.

It’s a noisy world and headlines are full of problems caused by loud sounds on young ears. To help protect the very young, Dots on Tots introduces cute hats for little ones that reduce external sound by fifty percent. All hats from this company are made of organic materials to be super-soft on tender skin. The Flappy-Tappy Ear Protection Hat keeps little heads warm and sound at bay with two layers of certified organic cotton on the ear flaps as well as an inner layer of fleece cotton that forms a pocket for the insert, made of four layers of organic hemp that has a fuzzy texture on one side to absorb noise.

However, it wasn’t long before concerns about disposable diapers began to arise.

For consideration, The Giggle Guide^® presents products from Bumkins, Itzy Ritzy, Bummas, and Dimpleskins Naturals.

If Christine and Peter were married instead of business partners, how they got together would be a classic romcom meet cute. Christine was selling her car to make money for her new venture – the perfect BellyBelt for maternity and post-maternity clothing issues. Peter turned up with his mother to look at the car, took one look at this mompreneur and instead of buying a Volkswagen, he bought half the business and grew it into Fertile Mind. Belly Belt grew as fast as her belly as Christine had three more kids, and she and Peter hired a staff of mostly working moms who helped them develop all the necessities for maternity and postnatal accessories.
