I am so excited to share with you my newest family fun find – Silikids!
Silikids began in 2006 as a labor of love for two friends and mothers. With growing concerns about toxic materials in children’s products, Silikids was born; a children’s accessory company dedicated to making safe, clean and hygienic products out of SILICONE. As mothers, they noticed that many products for babies were already made of silicone; bottle nipples, pacifiers, etc. Research confirmed that silicone was indeed a magnificent material for children due to its non-porous nature, where no bacteria could hide; its high resistance to temperatures making it easy to boil and sterilize, and its soft, pliable quality lends itself to multiple uses.
In caring for the planet, a very conscious effort is made to produce products that last and promote reuse. Packaging is minimal, and silicone can be recycled at specific recycling centers. Send your Silikids products back and they’ll have it recycled for you!
I love what this company stands for and will be adding their products into my OpenSky shop.
For crawlers to toddlers, these stylin’ baby knee pads – made from cotton with silicone pad protection – are designed to keep your little one’s knees feeling and looking good. Designed for comfort and ease, they slide right over baby’s knees to protect and keep them scrape-free from hard and irritable surfaces as they crawl and explore their surroundings. Machine washable, one size fits most.
Silikids sent me these green silipads for my youngest son, Tristen (9 months old), to review. Let me tell you, he put these knee pads to the test!! He thoroughly enjoyed being able to chase his big brothers by crawling without knee pain on the hardwood floors as well as the driveway outside.
I love the silipads and think they are a great way to keep a crawling child’s knees from getting carpet burn or scraped up!
Silikids also offers other amazing products, such as these fantastic drinking glasses!
