You can be green as a parent, and not just from spinach stains
If you often find yourself pondering over a pile of diapers and dirty dishes, wondering how you can care for the planet in addition to your baby, we'll prove that double care doesn't require double effort. Just by changing a few routines.
No one said that parenting is an easy task, just as environmental protection isn't, but both are important missions. We'll help with some inspiration and ideas on how to incorporate an eco-friendly mindset into your daily routine alongside raising children.
Eating
It's worth choosing local fruits and vegetables over foreign ones, as they don't travel as much, thus having a smaller ecological footprint, and you also support Hungarian small producers with your purchase. Our freshly picked category also guarantees that the tender produce will be on your plate within 12 hours of being picked.
More and more fruits and vegetables are also available in Kifli's own 100% recycled and recyclable cardboard boxes, which also prevent the goods from being crushed.
If you buy food from the Save the Food category, you save a lot and actively fight against waste, as the products found here are heavily discounted, close to expiration, but still of impeccable quality.
The Refilled category offers products without disposable packaging, which come to you in attractive jars. If you return them rinsed and with lids to the courier once they are empty, we will credit you the deposit fee.
We also recommend keeping various sizes of well-sealed containers and jars, as well as bag clips at home instead of single-use plastic packaging. They will come in handy, especially when the child leaves a few bites of food on the plate, and you can store the leftovers in them.
Housework and Hygiene
When your little one is born, and you're constantly changing clothes that are stained here and there, you'll realize that the washing machine is your best friend. A dishwasher can also be a huge blessing, looking at the pile of small spoons, bowls, and dishes with dried puree marks indicating what kind of food battle took place in the kitchen battlefield. If you can only rely on your hands instead of a machine, eco-coconut sponges are also available.
Fortunately, there are now many baby- and eco-friendly detergents, stain removers, fabric softeners, as well as dishwashing liquids and disinfectants available, in the Kifli.hu range.
Hygiene and Play
The most frequent and unpleasant part of the early baby period is the constant diaper changing. Try to imagine if you piled up the amount of diapers used in your child's first years, what a mountain it would be. That's why we suggest trying the comfortable compromise of eco-diapers, which do not cause skin irritation and are made from plant-based ingredients and organic cotton from responsible farms.
It's also important what comes into direct contact with the sensitive baby skin or the mother's stressed skin: we offer great natural cosmetics with all-natural and effective ingredients, some of which are zero waste, meaning they come in packaging without disposable materials.
Finally, let's not forget the pleasant topics, such as play. Fortunately, instead of a plastic tsunami, there are plenty of BPA-free, wooden, and cotton organic alternatives – because it matters what our baby puts in their mouth every day.
And if you select the reusable bag option under the "Pack it" section at Checkout when shopping at Kifli, you'll receive your orders in eco-bags made from PET bottles. Just hand them over to the courier next time, as we thoroughly wash and refill them, and after about 15 uses, we have new ones made. It's worth always having a re-bag with you, as surprisingly much can fit in it – for example, a water bottle alongside cloth diapers and spare clothes.
