Green Birthday Parties for Kids and Familiies
http://www.kidsaroundcanada.com/blog/2011/05/green-birthday-party-for-kids-and-families/ , May 02, 2011
A true happy birthday party…for kids, for parents and the world
Even though your thoughts are on the summer (as mine are, thankfully), birthday party planning will be here again before you know it. Just keep the below points in mind, speak about them with your friends and forward it to anyone who might be planning a party. When you stop and think about your past parties, you’ll realize how much this makes sense and will actually save you time, money, energy (yours and our natural resources), not to mention promoting a healthier life for people and the planet.
Some other good news: the trend for next year’s party is to simplify – even more now than ever. So, don’t bother getting over-consumed with organizing next year’s celebration. There are so many ways to make a big difference (while setting a good example for the kids and inspiring others).
Here are 10 smart party tips that will also stir up some ideas of your own, for your next eco-friendly, very fun & most impressive event from start to finish.

Green Up your Kitchen
http://www.cbc.ca/stevenandchris/2010/12/green-up-your-kitchen.html , December 01, 2010Goneshopping.ca's Greentainer, RuMe Snacks, RuMe Original bag, were featured on the Steven & Chris show.
TIP FOUR: PACKING FOOD TO GO
When you're getting your lunch ready to take away, skip the sealable plastic bags and plastic boxes. We all know these items are convenient but not great for the environment (or your health). Sandwich, cookies, fruit and recess snack = 4 bags a day, 5 days per week (20 bags). For a school year of 40 weeks that's 800 bags per child! That's about $30 a year, but the environmental cost is much higher: it could take 100 years or more for a plastic bag to break down, and the bits can pollute our waterways, soil and endanger wildlife. Invest in reusable, chic and enviro-friendly options. Bento boxes, tiffins and LunchBots are now all the rage. They are stylish, enviro friendly and can be purchased in great variety now. Lots of fantastic food storage options that are BPA free and "green".

The Kinks

Ever since we’ve had kids we’ve gotten a lot kinkier. We have persistent aches and pains in our necks and backs and we’re much stiffer in the mornings than we used to be. Sure some of that is due to age, but we suspect that all the carrying, bending, pushing and being hung on, tugged at and jumped on that parenting brings may be in large part to blame.

The Neo-Brown-Bag-Lunch (Goneshopping.ca is the source for the Laptop lunch)
canada.com by Meredith St John , September 06, 2009
Variety may be the spice of life, but it's difficult to apply this concept to the brown-bag lunch day after day. To draw from the adage, we propose spicing things up a little bit, and not necessarily with cumin or coriander.
One of the main factors behind monotonous meals is insufficient planning. Too busy you say? Planning ahead is more efficient, and will probably save time in the long run. Just as you've been instructed to never enter the grocery store hungry, the same theory applies for entering sans grocery list. -
The new ‘it’ bag
Chatelaine by Grace Toby , August 31, 2009When it comes to packing a lunch, think outside the (boring) brown bag and go green. Disposable lunch bags are not only wasteful, but they’re also about as exciting as a bologna sandwich. According to the Recycling Council of Ontario, the average student’s lunch generates 66 pounds of waste per school year. This number is easily matched or doubled by the amount of waste that an adult can produce. Start this new school or work season with a brand new bag; it will help you make healthy choices, stay environmentally responsible and save money.
