Each wipe contains enough sunscreen to cover baby from head to toe, with no fuss and no mess. They're a dermatologist-approved way to keep baby protected from UV rays at any age, anywhere, anytime.

These sunscreen towelettes were also featured on ivillage.com’s Pregnancy & Parenting Channel in a “summer savvy” slideshow. Check it out here. the slideshow touts that the sunscreen towelettes provides an "easy-on and hassle-free way to apply sunscreen to fidgety babies."

Celebrate Earth Day with your Kids

Earth Day, celebrated April 22, is a day designed to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's environment. It is a great time to learn about our planet and how we can take better care of it. Here are some ways you can celebrate Earth Day with your kids this year!

----- Have a picnic and use only locally grown food. This is a great way to teach your kids that produce from local farms and vendors is a “green” way of buying groceries and a fantastic time to introduce your little ones to a local farmer’s market. Look for organic foods while shopping. On your picnic, also be sure to use reusable dinnerware and plates, or paper plates made from recycled products.

----- Take a family bike ride to somewhere you would normally drive. If there is a nearby store or park that you would usually hop in your car to go to, instead ride your bikes to promote gas conservation and pollution reduction. This is a great way to enjoy a family activity together, all the while being environmentally friendly.

----- Plant your own garden! There has never been a better time to plant your own vegetables, due to the economy and the environment, so take the initiative on Earth Day and plant some of your favorite things to eat. Ask people at your local plant nursery for advice on what will grow best in your hometown.

----- Buy organic clothing and products on Earth Day and teach your child about the importance of “going green” when it comes to clothes and other gear. Many stores have “green” clothing items and other products, so when you can buy green, it is a great way to teach your children how to make environmentally sound choices.

Pure and Honest Kids has an entire section on our Web site dedicated to eco-friendly and organic products, so check out here.
