Hello Toxin Avengers-- I too am ticked off and tired of the corporate world poisoning our kids. I started a blog to share information about recalls, safer products, activism, and healthy living with kids. Non Toxic Kids shares information about what parents care most about: keeping their kids safe in a toxic world. It is filled with usable information for busy mamas: research summaries, news updates, product reviews and recommendations, tips for more natural living, creative ideas for raising healthy kids and links for more information. I hope you will post a link to the site, and I can link back to yours as well. We must unite to learn and then act to change. Thanks--

I know Christmas is coming up, and I found a great company that sells wood toys, fair trade items and more. They are www.novanatural.com I have loved everything I have bought from them. Continue the good work on informing mothers on the important issues of brestfeeding and toys.
