Snack Taxis, Back to School Transitions, and Eco-Friendly School Supplies

In the spirit of eco-friendly back to school season, here is a new post on MightyNest about Snack Taxis (reusable fabric bags that hold sandwiches and snacks).  They are adorable, and super functional.  Check it out!


Texas Children's Hospital has some great resources for back to school and about children's health. Here's a good article about getting your school aged child on a good school sleep schedule, and another one about handling your child's anxiety about school. 

And for more great green back to school supplies, check out Kate's Caring Gifts.  I found eco-friendly hemp backpacks from Earth Diva,  Organic resusable lunch bags from Rebel's Green, and lots of great gear for packing no-waste lunches.  You'll even get 20 percent off all this good stuff with this code:  SCHOO0L2010 at checkout for a 20% discount on your entire order.

Thanks for these resources! Preschool starts in 2 weeks and I've been thinking I had better get on the ball.

In terms of eco-friendly school supplies, I dig Eco-Kids. These are natural art supplies that are environmentally friendly. The thing I love most about them is that it's a mom run company, where they literally make their natural paints on their stove-top. Hope you love 'em as much as I do.
