Homemade Kids cover

A practical and inspirational guide to bringing up your baby in a thrifty, eco-friendly way

Raising a healthy, happy child doesn't need to be a complicated process that puts a strain on the planet and your wallet. This book can help you to: make your home a more healthy, energy-efficient environment; create toys and fun activities for your baby; and, consider the best feeding and transport solutions for your family.

Modern living offers convenience, and as parents we need all the help we can get. Food is produced in abundance, and clothes are cheap enough for us to use and then discard. But is it necessary to be so wasteful? And is this really how we want to raise our children?

Homemade Kids is full of top tips, inspirational ideas and practical advice that will help you to:

• make your home a more healthy, energy-efficient environment
• create toys and fun activities for your baby
• decide whether reusuable nappies are the right choice for you
• consider the best feeding and transport solutions for your family

Raising a healthy, happy child doesn't need to be a complicated process that puts a strain on the planet and your wallet. Homemade Kids takes you back to basics and reminds you of the simple pleasures of parenting.
