Most of us know by now that your children’s sleepwear is one of the first places we should consider going organic.    The toxins in our kids pj’s are alarming.  We’ve all heard the term ” flame retardants” and read information like, “Most clothing produced today is grown and manufactured with toxic chemicals. The garment industry is well-known for being chemically intensive and polluting. Synthetic and conventional cotton can also cause harm as most of them are allergenic and emit harmful gasses.”

 Making the change to organic sleepwear is important, “Organic cotton and wool are the best choices for children. They feel softer, last longer and protect the developing systems of babies and toddlers. Because they are free from dangerous chemicals, organic cotton and wool breath and allow for moisture absorption. SIDS is not found in developing countries where natural or organic sleeping surfaces are the norm. Organic fertilizers, manual crop rotation and integrated pest management all work with nature instead of against it. Organic farmers in Texas, California, New Mexico, Arizona and Missouri are preserving and revitalizing the honorable American tradition of the family farm. You can support this ideal by purchasing organic cotton and wool whenever possible, educating yourself and buying organic foods. Pass your organic clothing on to others, use environmentally-friendly detergents and body care products, and hang your clothes to dry. To be absolutely sure your child’s sleepwear does not contain flame-retardants, synthetics, or pesticides, the tags must say “wear snug fitting, not flame retardant” and “100% organic.”  Snug Organics has designed wonderful organic pj’s for your little ones.

Aren’t these adorable and in great colors!  Nicholas received a pair and we love them.  At almost 4 it is unbelievable how picky the boy is about how his clothes fit so I was nervous about him liking his new Snug Organic summer jammies.   We took them with us to NY and he wore them almost all week!  I had to sneak them off to the laundry room    Snug Summer Sleepwear is made of 100% organic cotton rib knit to keep your toddler cool this summer. This tank top paired with a simple short brief is beautifully handmade for those really warm and muggy summer nights. The comfortable top doubles as a tank all day long; just throw on a pair of shorts and go! Our yoga-like organic cotton/spandex (10%) trim acts as a comfortable alternative to elastic.
