The reusable utensils are made of bamboo and have been sustainably harvested. I like how they come inside their own carrying case to keep them clean.

This set is a fair wage and fair trade product.

blue is made by the Thermos company and comes with a straw, so it’s perfect for older children ready to move beyond the sippy cup and also perfect for adults. This is something that can be used by you or your child for years, so it’s well worth the roughly $14.

While looking into the kid’s sippy cup, I noticed a pink nonplastic drink container. While it’s not exactly a fogo sippy cup, this is awfully cute: Soho Swirl Water Bottle
.

The friend I visited happened to be part of the inspiration for this website. My friends and I were shooting emails back and forth about how to reduce waste and the amount of plastic we use with our children. I realized my excitement about this topic and a website was born.

During my trip, we visited a playground when it was about 90 degrees. I had my SIGG, my daughter had her SIGG and my friend’s son had his Fogo. I felt great that none of us were using plastic water bottles. In that day alone, we saved at least 6 bottles (if not more). I calculate that three of us would have drunk at least 2 bottles each on such a hot day. Imagine how much we’d reduce plastic water bottle usage if we all used reusable containers and stopped using plastic bottles! =)
