Swallowtail Farms

 This site is mostly geared towards weddings, but if you are looking for an unforgettable party for someone who enjoys butterflies you must take a look. How does a butterfly release at the climax of the party sound to you?
They also have plantable wildflower paper invitations for baby showers and other parties.  Plantable confetti, too.  There are live butterfly growing kits and other products for kids. I won't mention the beautiful butterfly cookies because you don't want to know about sugar cookies, right?                                                                             Image from Swallowtail Farms

Printable Paper Dolls

 

Here is a great site that has all kinds of paper dolls available for you to print out. What about putting together a nice homemade paper doll making kit? You could include printed-out dolls, eco-friendly colored pencils, paint etc (see my arts & crafts category), small scissors, and materials for the child to make their own dolls and clothes. You could even get fancy and use recycled tag board (cereal packages???) and bits of fabric...

Other ideas for homemade kits as presents could be puppet-making supplies; wood working supplies (thanks, Auntie Diane- that was a great gift!); knitting / crochet; art kit; juggling kit; jewelery making kit (with nature objects included if you want to keep the cost low); baking basket; there are lots of possibilities, what are the child's interests??

Eco Products

Sustainable disposable products.
If you use disposable dishes and utensils, consider purchasing from this company. You must set up an account to order -doesn't take long.
"Sustainable disposables sound like an oxymoron, but we live in a consumer culture where disposable products are ubiquitous. And they aren't going away anytime soon. We see this as an incredible opportunity to help change the world—and more importantly, each of the local communities we serve—by making sustainable disposable products that shift an industry."

Bubble Liquid

(This post is not a link to a site. Titles to other posts are links to websites)

 Put some of this in a nice recycled bottle for a great gift! Apparently the results are better if made the day before. I don't know how this will work with a more environmentally friendly dish soap.

 Greeting cards made from high  quality paper which is Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified or made from 30% post-consumer waste. Not as green using digital cards, but certainly one of the greener places to shop for paper cards. Cards, invitations, and announcements for all sorts of occasions, including Eid-ul-Fitr, Diwali, and Chinese New Year
