Laura Klein's Partner Pick: Endurance Stainless Steel Compost Pail (I actually need one of these!)

I can’t bear to throw out veggie scraps anymore when I know I can reuse them in my organic garden as a compost fertilizer. I love this compost pail because it makes every day composting easy and automatic.

You’re busy. We get it. With the coming and going daily rush of it all, it can be hard to be conscious of all the healthy choices we could be making. But with the little time you have, we’d all like to make more quick healthy, eco-conscious decisions. 

So MightyNest put together this guide of The 3 Quickest Ways for a Healthier Commute. It’s ideas for 3 small changes you can make...all on your way to work! They are also great gift ideas for the busiest person you know (and they're all under $30!). They’ll love the fact that you’re making their morning commute a little healthier, greener, and more enjoyable!

Dina's Gift Pick: Little Bites Silicone Bowls

I love the Kinderville bowls because they are totally indestructible. It’s also nice to know I can put them in the dishwasher because they are silicone. Read more...

We recently came across the story of a woman who sent an email to her immediate family explaining how she preferred to avoid cheap plastic toys.  It ended up offending her mother-in-law, who felt she will now have to “change the way she shops.”

How do you handle such instances? It’s a tough situation, as you are likely very grateful for your gift-giver's generosity and you don’t want to offend them in any way. Yet at the same time, with concerns about lead and PVC in toys, you want to maintain a healthy and safe home for you and your family.

Have you been the recipient of gifts you feel aren't safe for your kids? Do you end up putting it in the closet until your gift-giver is in town? Do you donate it to Goodwill? Do you drop subtle hints? We'd love to hear how you handle (or avoid) these types of situations.

To help you and your loved ones out, get inspired by our Holiday Gift Guide: Natural Gifts for a Healthy Home...and feel free to share it!
