In my search for green info for raising kids and maintaining my home, I have come across several helpful websites. The top three that I enjoy are Inhabitots, Treehugger and Green Child Magazine.
Treehugger and Inhabitots are related sites with blogs and weekly e-newsletters. I follow them on Google Reader and appreciate the tips and product reviews that Inhabitots offers and the news articles that Treehugger shares. I can keep up with world environmental developments and news and Treehugger has even started offering vegetarian recipes for those trying to follow the Meatless Monday efforts.
Green Child Magazine is a digital magazine, which has a free subscription service. I am new to the world of digital magazines and they are swiftly becoming the reason why I may get an iPad down the line. The ease with which you can read the articles and scan the ads and then bookmark the webpages where items are located makes the digital magazines so easy to use. Plus, I don’t have to rip out pages to save for ideas that inspire me and fill the filing cabinet with folders upon folders of paper clutter. Green Child Magazine has a blend of articles on how to be eco-friendly in the activities that you do with your children, such as dyeing easter eggs and other craft ideas. It also has great ads for green friendly products and, in the inaugural issue, a nice article about a cute organic kids’ shop in North Carolina. I also enjoy finding out about more organic fabrics and clothing lines. I don’t remember how I found Green Child Magazine, but I am glad that I did. It’s nice to click on an item I like and be taken to the website where I can purchase it or bookmark to think about it for later. It has good insight and I will enjoy checking out future issues.
Are there other great green resources out there? If you know of any that I have not yet mentioned, please comment below.
