We have almost all wooden toys though she has some plastic noisy stuff from grandparents. I did buy a cosy coupe and a little tikes climbing frame though (second hand) and we have a plastic sandpit from when dd1 was small
I checked with Pyrex and they confirmed their lids are BPA free. They are also replacing 2 damaged ones free of charge. Yay! The lids won't be touching the food and so will keep it til a better alternative comes up.
Our 17 month old just uses our plates and bowls rather than kids plastic stuff, and we got her some kids stainless steel cutlery
Now I've got storage sorted it's time ti start looking at the food we buy.
We grow some food but I'm not v good. Too much of a fair-weather gardener.
Even in our farmers market you can't avoid plastic containers- eg strawberries are prepackaged- though there is a guy who sells oils that you bring your own bottle for!
Our milkman delivers milk in plastic bottles so we are stuck!
What I notice most are juice bottles, punnets from berries and grapes, and yogurt pots. We have a yogurt maker ( plastic!) but I've found it unreliable so it's sat unloved in a cupboard. Might get an electric one. Today I spent just over a tenner on yogurt for a week. I think it could pay for itself quickly but haven't researched any, never mind checked if they contain plastic.
We grow strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries and apples. We set up a barter with a friend for extra strawberries :)
Juice... Well we need to wean ourselves off juice. Must admit since we got the klean kanteens we have all been drinking more water. I'm actually craving it now. But sometimes I just want something tastier. Guess over time I'll not need to as much.
Anyone switch away from disposable San pro? I mostly use a combo of cloth pads and a silicone cup but have done disposables on hand for emergencies.
My cloth pads as have a layer of plastic ( laminated fabric for their waterproof layer) as I didn't like the alternatives. I use cloth nappies on DD, again with laminated fabric layer in them. They won't be going anywhere either!
Really should go to sleep... Sorry for my ramble!
