Free Diapers and Being Part of a Movement at the Seventh Generation Twitter Party!

November 11, 2013 · by Tiffany Merritt · Leave a Comment

I participated in this program on behalf of Seventh Generation and The Motherhood. All opinions are my own, as always. 
Can we talk about something really important for a few minutes? Can we talk about the over-abundance of toxic chemicals in our homes and our world, and just how confusing it is to navigate what is safe and what might not be? This is an issue that concerns me, and also really confuses me. Just when I think I’ve got a handle on things, a new study will come out that gives new information and leaves me scratching my head. Healthy Child, Healthy World and Seventh Generation totally gets this, and they are starting a movement to help us all figure things out.

Some of the statistics are really alarming. Did you know the following, for example:

  • There are more than 80,000 chemicals registered for use in the U.S. Comprehensive pre-market safety testing of these chemicals is not required under any federal law.

  • The primary U.S. law that regulates chemicals in every day products hasn’t been updated in more than 35 years.

  • In the European Union (EU), 1,328 chemicals have been banned for use in personal care products. In the U.S., only 11 chemicals have been banned or restricted by the FDA.

  • Scientific evidence continues to point to the chemicals we are exposed to in our daily lives as causing or contributing to the rise in childhood behavioral disorders and diseases.

  • Cancer is now the leading cause of child-related death in the U.S., exceeded only by injury.

Parents Joining Forces

Trust me, I know that all the information out there is scary and confusing. I certainly have moments where I just want to plug up my ears and pretend I don’t know anything about this stuff. In the short run, that certainly would be the easier route to take! But I’ve also learned that by joining forces with the right educators and with other parents, developing a clear understanding of the problems AND a clear strategy for how to solve them is very doable. There is strength in numbers, and in knowledge!

Seventh Generation Twitter Party

Will you join me this Thursday, November 14th, at 1pm ET for a Twitter party with Seventh Generation? We’re going to talk about all-natural baby product options. Additionally, you’ll learn about an awesome opportunity called the Healthy Baby Home Party. This is something you can apply to host, and it gives moms and dads a really neat way to engage and educate your family and friends on topics like creating a healthy environment for the next generation. When you host a Healthy Baby Home Party, you also receive all sorts of fun samples and helpful information to distribute to your guests! Very fun!

Seventh Generation Partners with The Lorax! GIVEAWAY!!!

March 11, 2012 · by Tiffany Merritt · 136 Comments

I’m all geared up to go cloth from the start with baby #2. I plan to go cloth as soon as the umbilical cord falls off! I’ll have a few days where I need to use disposables, and about 2 weeks after baby is born, we’ll be hitting the road for a few days to go to my sister’s wedding. Cloth is totally doable on the road, but I just don’t want to mess with it in the midst of trying to enjoy Laura’s big day. So I’ll be taking some disposables. But I still want to keep all those nasty chemicals away from my newborn, so I’m being quite choosy about which disposables I will be using. Seventh Generation is what I’m going to use!

They have actually just released a new and improved Free & Clear diaper product line, and are launching these products with a little help from Dr. Suess’ “The Lorax!” The Lorax is the “Speaker for the Trees” in this classic tale, which Universal Studios’ has now released as a motion picture. He is a great advocate for those who may not be able to advocate for themselves (the earth, the animals, the air). Seventh Generation will feature limited edition Lorax prints on all diapers and training pants. This is such a great way to remind parents and caregivers that we are responsible for caring for the earth, and we don’t speak up, who will?

Seventh Generation has an entire line of Free & Clear baby products that your family is sure to love, including brand new overnight diapers. Hooray! Free & Clear diapers also have improved tabs for a better fit and the training pants have an absorbant core made with more renewable materials. Seventh Generation truly listens to feedback from its customers to ensure that they put the very best products possible on the shelves. Furthermore, these products are free of chlorine, fragrance, petroleum-based lotions or latex and they are hypo-allergenic.

Beginning March 2nd, if you purchase any 3 Free & Clear diaper products, you can register for a FREE The Lorax scrapbook! Fun!

Win it!: One lucky Stuff Parents Need reader is going to win a prize pack with the following great items:

  • A copy of Dr. Seuss´s The Lorax storybook
  • One package of new Seventh Generation Free & Clear diaper product
