I recently read a very revealing fact...and probably a little known fact as well! Did you know that the skin of newborns and young children is so thin that 90% of what you put on their skin gets absorbed...into all their cells and organs? That's a big deal...especially when so many of the baby products that are sold today contain harmful chemicals, preservatives, etc. That's why when it comes to our kids and our family we are always striving to find and use products that are natural and safe. Friendly Fish is a fabulous little online store where you can find just these types of products! We received a few items from the Dimpleskins line to try out. Dimpleskins is made in Canada and is 100% Canadian and 100% safe! We loved the Bum Bum Balm that they sent along for Emily. It is full of healing oils, has no perfumes, chemicals, etc. and it's even stored in a neat little tin which is made of 'food grade' and 'rust proof' materials. Even little bums deserve the best treatment when they suffer from rashes and irritations. :)
Dimpleskins Sweet Cheeks natural body balm is another fabulous product! It works marvelously on Emily's cheeks which often become chapped and red from the dry winter air. Sweet Cheeks is not a greasy cream either...smooth and delicate - perfect for sensitive skin. It's been great for our whole family actually! Even I tried it out on my dry hands and it was moisturizing and comforting for me as well.
And yes...I saved the best for last! The Dimpleskins Kiss Me, Baby natural lip/cheek balm from Friendly Fish has been SO helpful! Tate recently decided to spend a lot of time picking at his lips...which were already dry and cracked in the first place. Let's just say that this didn't go over well and he ended up with extremely sore, cracked and bleeding lips - even a bit swollen at one point! After a little chat about 'not picking our lips ;)' and a few days of applying the Kiss Me, Baby lip balm things were healed up and I'm sure a LOT less painful for the little guy! This is one product that I wouldn't want to be without during our dry Canadian winters here in the prairies! It comes in a handy little tube which I love as well...great for tucking into my pocket or the diaper bag. Of course, the lip balm is all natural as well. It's such a relief to me to know that I've found a lip balm that can be used on even the tiniest babies and that will be 100% safe for them...even if they eat it! ;)Friendly Fish also carries a great selection of other kid and baby-geared, natural and organic products! You'll find clothing, toys, bedding and more!
WIN IT!

What a great company! The diaper cream really intrigues me...I don't like to put just anything on my little ones bottoms and this looks like such a great product! As far as what I'd like to see more of, I'm at a loss. There seems to be a great variety of everything!!!
Thanks for the chance to win. -Amber

love the green toys tool set

I love the dimpleskins line!! Most of it. I especially like their 'sniffles' when cold season arrives!
Friendly fish has tons of great 'green toys" and I would probably go with something from there.
I was disappointed to find that there were no natural baby washes or bubble baths. I found "butterfly weed" wash at a store once but it's hard to find natural stuff for littles!
