Family Pajamas

Every Christmas Eve we give the gift of PJs in my family. It’s something cute we all look forward to and a consistent gift we know to expect. But in all the years as a family, we have only been able to match each other maybe once until finding Millie + Roo this year. Not only are all of Millie + Roos’s super soft bamboo PJ styles adorable, but they have sizes for EVERYONE in the family! From our 4-month-old to our toddler, our elementary kids and teens up to me and my husband they have our sizes! We can match each other in style and design or choose not to match at all — but at least everyone gets a pair of PJs so no one is let out. Definitely check out the Millie + Roo website for your family’s next get-together.

Fluffy Friends

With the gift of an adorable Friendsheep character dryer ball, your friend or family member won’t accidentally send their kiddo to school with your underwear in their shirt thanks to static cling. From bees and penguins to stars and tie-dye, the fluffy fair trade wool dryer balls at Friendsheep are too cute not to have in every laundry room. Friendsheep also sells wool for essential oils, ornaments, and lanyards. Check them out!

Clean water

Clean drinking and cooking water is less common than you know — most city water supplies include chemicals like lead, chromium 6 (2 of every 4 American homes have this), chlorine, arsenic, and PFAS (in addition to a host of others) to get the water “clean,” leaving families with unsafe chemical water. Whether boiling water for a pasta dish or baby bottle or simply filling up a reusable water bottle, families need to start with safe drinking water because contaminants don’t boil out. AquaTru makes clean water attainable via options like an on-the-counter water purifier with a glass pouring pitcher (no plastics, here) or an under-the-sink solution so families can focus on making & enjoying traditional meals together, not whether or not their foods & drinks are safe.
