Although many think that the stores are a bit too early with all their chocolate calendars, gingerbread cookies, and Christmas decorations on the shelves, it is still a sign that Christmas is slowly approaching. It also means that Christmas shopping needs to be done soon. And why not make these purchases with a little more thought about the environment and resources?
In this blog post, we have gathered some good suggestions for sustainable Christmas gifts that you can place under the Christmas tree with a clear conscience.
For the expecting mother
Those who are expecting often experience being bombarded with Christmas gifts for the upcoming baby. It is certainly very lovely, but remember that the expecting mother also needs pampering – especially at Christmas!
A really good idea for a fantastic and useful Christmas gift is a pregnancy pillow. Especially our lovely pregnancy pillows from the brand bbhugme are very popular with us right now. The soft and lovely pillows provide fantastic support while giving the body the best possible resting position. The OEKO-TEX certified pillows also help relieve critical areas like the stomach, pelvis, back, etc. But the best part is almost that the pillows can also be used once the baby has arrived, as they are great for support during breastfeeding.
Fossflakes, Doomoo and Filibabba are good brands where you can also find environmentally friendly and beautiful pregnancy and nursing pillows.
Maternity clothes are another great Christmas gift idea for the expecting mother. The Swedish brand Boob is known for their beautiful maternity clothes of the highest quality, where materials and fit are always top-notch. We especially love their Mira maternity dress, which is OEKO-TEX certified, here at the office. Besides being really nice in its simple design and pattern, the drawstring around the waist makes it easy to adjust the fit.
Another good suggestion for a nice maternity dress is a knitted and GOTS certified dress – also from Boob. Its soft and comfortable fabric made of knitted organic cotton is perfect for the season.
For the children
One of the things that children receive the most for Christmas is toys – surprise! If you have also thought about jumping on the toy wagon this year, a really good suggestion would be toys from the brand PlanToys. This brand produces wooden toys without preservatives in rubber wood and has worked for many years to develop products that can positively contribute to our planet.
For the baby/children's room
If you are looking for a slightly larger Christmas gift that will please both the expectant mother and the child, a really good suggestion would be an ANTON crib from the brand Hoppekids. The bed is the world's first Swan-labeled baby bed and is a sturdy and classic bed with a base that can be adjusted to two different heights. At the same time, it has a smart design that allows it to be converted into a bench, thereby extending its usage time. Wuhu
If you think the bed might be a bit too big of a Christmas gift, another suggestion could be a super nice OEKO-TEX certified baby duvet from BabyDan, which contains 1st class duck down. Or a lovely GOTS certified set of baby bedding from Cam Cam Copenhagen.
Another item that can beautifully decorate the baby/children's room is an organic canopy from the brand Filibabba. It can be used over the baby's crib or placed in the corner of the princess room, where it, along with a lot of pillows and blankets, can create the coziest den atmosphere.
We hope that these suggestions have given you good inspiration for the perfect Christmas gift and perhaps saved you some time in the big Christmas gift hunt
