Why is our clothing so good and helpful?

We select the very best natural fibres and work with companies that really care about quality. For example,

* we use fine, organic Merino wool for our sleepwear and sleeping bags, as this has been shown to help little bodies relax into sleep.
* We use only organic cotton and eco-safe dyes in our cotton ranges, as the longer, less processed fibres result in softer cotton against the skin and no chemical residues.
* We make sure that baby clothes are actually designed for babies, who have such different bodyshapes from older children and have different needs in clothing.

If you like what we are trying to do, come and "like" us today. The next 30 customers as of 18th April 2011 will be entered into our Giveaway - you could win gorgeous organic socks or a Cosilana Merino wool and silk blend children's vest/top!

What to look for in clothing

* Underwear (vests, baby-bodies, leggings and long-johns) are always worn next to the skin, so it's really important to look after the skin by making sure the fabric is breathable so that the skin can "breathe", staying dry and healthy, soft and non-irritating, and flexible so that the body can move in comfort.

* Outerwear should allow babies and children to move freely. For babies, we feel the best outerwear is often one-piece clothing without waistbands, as babies' tummies do so much work and are so often squashed by a waistband. Look for all-in-ones and baby dungarees.

* Outerwear for children should also allow them to move freely - for active children, tight outerwear is just uncomfortable and limits movement. Look for cotton jersey (fine knitted cotton) and wool - wool is fantastic as it is light, warm and very breathable, more breathable than cotton, and the Merino wool we specialise in is so fine it is not itchy at all - just soft and comfortable.

* Outerwear should be breathable too, to continue the natural wicking process that allows sweat on the skin to move out to the atmosphere - wool is best as it is naturally designed to do this (think of all the different temperatures sheep are happy in!).

* Organic fibres are less processed and generally of better quality. This means that they last longer - organic cotton in particular keeps its shape wash after wash, with the clothes looking good almost for ever. Organic fibres are also pesticide and herbicide free - safer and healthier to have close to the body.
