With sustainability at the forefront, we have curated our sustainable holiday gift guide featuring our favorite, fun-filled holiday surprises for children. From hands on and creative to super soft apparel, these gifts are sure to warm the heart and create lasting memories.
Stainless Steel Dinnerware Set
Ahimsa
Ahimsa, the world’s first colorful stainless-steel dinnerware set for kids, makes the perfect gift for infants and toddlers.
Dr. Manasa Mantravadi, a board-certified pediatrician and mom of 3, developed this line of colorful stainless steel dinnerware collection after the American Academy of Pediatrics released a policy statement in 2018 that highlighted the harmful effects of plastic on children’s health. They instead recommended stainless steel or glass to serve and store food.
Ahimsa’s stainless-steel bundles & sets are perfect for sustainable gift giving this holiday season. Our favorite is the Mindful Mealtime Set in rainbow. Dishwasher safe and built to last a lifetime.

With two modes to cater to loose teeth, raw gums, and a built-in timer to guide little ones along for the dentist-recommended two minutes. It also features a four-week-long battery life, and 31,000 sonic vibrations/minute.
