You can order a sports cap (which I did) to replace the sippy cap when your child grows beyond "sippy." ITA that one should buy fair trade items whenever possible. I feel good knowing that my few extra dollars are being used to help someone in an otherwise impoverished situation to make a better living.

I just think women should not be expected to cover up. Katie, I wholeheartedly agree that all women should be supported breastfeeding, and I am sorry if I came across otherwise.

Because of the way she preferred to nurse, and the frequency of latching on and off, I was never comfortable nursing in public without a nursing cover (unless I was in a designated nursing area). This had nothing to do with other people's comfort level, but my own. I applaud your efforts to increase the public's comfort level with nursing, but appreciate more the helpful information regarding an organic nursing cover. Unless my next child loses the wiggle worm gene, I intend to continue using a nursing cover, and believe ALL women should be supported in their breastfeeding efforts (covered or not).

There is a new ec0-friendly company called Poison Bottle Company (www.poisonbottleco.com) that makes bpa free, affordable and stylish stainless steel water bottles. They will be releasing smaller bottles and bottles with safe sippy cup tops in the next month. Definitely a "must see" because these are much more affordable than other bottles. Don't be scared by the name - just a comical take on bottle safety issues of the past. These are some great ideas for green gifts!
