Giving Green: Klean Kanteen

65 comments

Giveaway is closed.

As a mom of a toddler, I feel like I worry about every little thing. You would think something as simple as a sippy cup couldn’t be harmful, but it can. I’ve sure you’ve heard the news by now, but many plastic sippy cups and water bottles leach toxins such as Bisphenol A (BPA). Studies have linked BPA to breast cancer and reproductive mutations. How scary is that!

Thanks to the Kay Green at My Precious Kid, my daughter was able to try out a Klean Kanteen sippy cup. I had been looking for a good, safe, leak-free sippy for a while now, and think I have finally found the perfect one. This Klean Kanteen holds 12 ounces of liquid, and is made of high quality food-grade stainless steel. It’s 100% non-leaching and is toxin-free, making it a safe, healthy alternative to plastic containers. With no inner lining, it’s very easy to clean and even dishwasher-safe. I tasted water that sat in the Kanteen for a few hours, and it was still clean-tasting and cool, refreshing even.

Product Review: Klean KanteenIt’s been over a week now of daily use, and even though it’s been dropped multiple times, the Klean Kanteen shows no wear and tear. I thought that the baby might have trouble holding it if the bottle was full, but that wasn’t the case at all. Her little hands fit perfectly around the tapered neck. It looks heavier than its actual weight of 4 oz. I love that the Klean Kanteen can grow with her. Once baby is over the sippy stage, all I have to do is buy a new cap and we’re good to go. The initial investment may seem steep, but it’s worth it in the long run. Klean Kanteens can be purchased from My Precious Kid for $15.95 to 19.95, depending on your spout, color, and size preference.

    I love all the autism saftey products. I have a cousin with Asperbergers & all those things, especially the medical ID card, would be helpful to him.

  10. Jayme , says:

    i like the Swaddle Blanket – Snug & Tug because it looks like it would keep the child all snug without their hands or feet creeping their way out. i like the bright poka dot fabric too.

  19. Sweetpeas , says:

    I had Tiny Diner placemats for my girls when they were toddlers, LOVED them!!! They gave us a clean eating surface for the kids AND the tray catches at least some of the stuff that would otherwise end up on the floor!! I had a restaurant owner (at a small family owned Chinese restraunt) rave about them when she saw us using them too, what a great idea it was, how considerate of us to try to reduce the mess, etc.

  20. nicole , says:

    i like the Safe Sippy in Blue. Since there is a 25% off code…i may just have to get it. :)

  21. Ashley , says:

    I love the product- Child Locator PINK. I have always wanted one of those

  22. Maggie , says:

    I would buy the Halo Sleep Sack, as I have a few for my son, but he is getting too long for them. Even better that these are on sale!
    I love the pics of your little one. :)

    I could sure use that folding potty seat! Cool idea. My son is starting to ask to go potty when we’re out and about, and I have to hold him over the seat so he doesn’t touch anything. Not very easy with a bad back!

    I love the sippy cups – the design and their safety. I also really like the high chair fold-up booster seat. My friend has already told me about them, and it’s something she’s used with her daughter since she was 5 months. They never even had a regular high chair! Seems great to me!

  38. Julie , says:

    I like the Baby Cubes for making your own homemade baby food ahead, like my mom did for us as babies. I also like the Halo sleep sack as I’ve thought it was a great idea ever since seeing how similar sacks worked while working in a baby orphanage in Romania a few years ago. I will be bookmarking their site.

    Would love to win the Kleen Kanteen, as I’ve made the transition to stainless steel water bottles for myself and would prefer that option for my little one as well!!
