As Earth day quickly approaches we would like to round up some of our favorite Eco-Friendly baby products. In the last few years, the availability of green items for babies has expanded tremendously. Mostly started by parents who were concerned by the void in the market, big companies have also started to come on board and introduce goods that were beneficial to the planet.
