- To paraphrase Jackie Wilson, your love keeps lifting BabyGanics higher and higher. Not sure what you’ve been feeding your little ones lately (we kid, we kid), but it seems there’s been a growing need for this fantastic air freshener/odor remover. And with our BabyGanics sale still in full swing, this baby might just reach the top of the charts.

3. VMV Hypoallergenics Gift Set (sale price $60; normally $75)
- Give this gift and you’ll have a friend for life. Why? Because VMV makes the most lust-worthy body care products around – the first to be rated VH-65, meaning they are free of all 65 known allergens. Inside this gift set – beautifully packaged in a hand-made cream-and-chocolate box with an espresso-colored bow — you’ll find carry-on approved travel sizes of VMV’s complete line of baby products, plus a set of Hypoallergenic Bonnet & Booties. We’ve never put this item on sale before, so here’s your opportunity to take advantage of us.

- Whether you’re an everyday germaphobe (like me) or getting ready for a family vacation (GERM-any anyone?), Clean Well’s travel size hand sanitizers – offered in Original Scent or Orange Vanilla – are just the thing to beat back all those evil little fever-inducing meanies. Also available in a 6 oz. spray pump and pocket wipes.

5. DANO2 Ducki Bath Toy/Teether ($8)
- If bathing and teething are part of your daily routine, well, maybe you should see a doctor about the teething. But if you’ve got a child who meets that description, then you’ve got to get him a Ducki. Offered in 4 cheerful pastels – Caribbean (blue), Mint, Raspberry and Citrus (yellow) – Ducki is cool as a cucumber and free of BPA, phthalates, lead and PVC.

Speaking of rubber ducks, we just had a chance to dive into Slow Death by Rubber Duck: The Secret Dangers of Everyday Things, a book recently released in the U.S. by Rick Smith (Executive Director of Environmental Defence Canada) & Bruce Laurie (a Canadian environmental activist) about the real-world impacts of exposure to toxic chemicals in everyday products. It’s a freakishly magnetic read. Over the course of a few days the authors intentionally expose themselves to all manner of toxins – from BPA and phthalates to teflon and canned tuna – in order to determine the chemicals’ adverse effects. Though the experiment may be a little bit unscientific, the book contains some compelling revelations and we urge you to check it out.
