Today we’ve got a slightly random collection of products that have three things in common – they’re better for your babe, better for the environment and make great valentine’s gifts….

We love our stainless steel snack storage containers, but they’re not always the lightest, most portable options around, which is when we turn to our Snack Taxi. A reusable alternative to plastic bags, we like their snack sacks best as they’re just the right size for a handful of cheddar bunnies, cheerios or carrots. With a cotton exterior and waterproofed nylon lining they’re heavy metal, phthalate, PBB and PBDE-free. And they can be machine washed and hung to dry, but they tend to take awhile to air dry so we save them for dry snacks that can be cleaned up with a quick wipe rather than a full on wash. We think if you stuffed them with fair trade chocolate they’d make perfect Valentine’s gifts: www.everylittlebitgreen.com

When you do manage to get your photos printed how do you store them? Hopefully not in a shoebox. We’ve raved about Ecojot’s stationery before and we also love this newer addition to their line, a photo album.  Made in Canada, it’s a handy-sized, glittery, acid-free, 30% post consumer recycled receptacle you can fill with pix of your tots and gift to grandma or let your kids use it to collate their own photo collections.  There’s a less glittery version you can snag as well: www.everylittlebitgreen.com
