Benefits of Organic Cotton Sheets

We know that one of the most important jobs as parents is to keep our kids safe and healthy. We also know it isn’t always easy to do, which is why we’re here to lend a helping hand. We’re designing more and more organic products like bedding, clothing and towels, making it easier to find safer, healthier products for your precious little ones. By the end of the year, we aim to have the majority of our sheets 100% organic cotton, and we couldn’t be more excited. Learn the benefits of organic cotton and you’ll see why we’re so happy to be making the switch!
Organic sheets are healthier for your kids:
They are made without synthetic chemicals, which is really important because the sheets come into direct contact with your children’s skin for almost a third of every day. Sleeping on organic sheets reduces your kids chemical exposure.
Organic sheets are especially beneficial for kids with skin allergies because they are made without the harmful, irritating chemicals that traditionally cause reactions. Paired with an organic mattress and pillow, they can also help kids with asthma breathe easier at night.
Organic cotton has great breathability, which will help small bodies keep a more regulated temperature throughout the night. That means your kids can stay warm in winter and cool in summer. You can choose from twin, full or queen sheet sets to match your needs.
We’re confident that you’ll find our durable organic cotton bedding stands the test of time better than traditional cotton. That’s because we firmly believe it’s better quality. Our cotton isn’t treated with harsh chemicals, meaning the fiber remains stronger and more durable when made into fabric.
Organic Cotton is less damaging to the planet:
Producing cotton with conventional methods requires a disproportionately large amount of pesticides, insecticides and herbicides compared to other agricultural products. Some consider cotton the “dirtiest” crop out there.
The chemicals used to grow cotton can be damaging to the surrounding land as they sink into soil and contaminate water. Keep in mind that the US is one of the largest producers of cotton, so this impacts our country as well as many others across the globe.
These chemicals are also dangerous for the people working in the cotton fields, who come into close contact with the chemicals and can suffer health problems as a result.
Choosing organic cotton bedding means you’re choosing cotton that was grown without harsh, environmentally damaging chemicals. It also means that the cotton did not come from genetically modified plants. Your kid’s bed should be a cozy oasis, and we believe keeping it chemical free makes it all the better.
