It’s a special moment in the life of every family…. buying that first BIG bed for your child. As parents you want to make the right choice, and that means a healthy organic mattress. You should keep in mind that children have special needs for mattresses that are different from adults. Look for a firmer mattress: children’s bones and spines are still growing, and, as such, pediatricians recommend firmer mattresses to encourage proper bone growth.

So it’s important to choose the right mattress, and most important of all is to avoid the potentially harmful chemicals to be found in so many mattresses on the market today. Your child may spend 10 to 12 hours a day sleeping on that mattress for many years, and many chemicals can “off-gas” from the mattress and be inhaled by your child. Here’s a checklist of the ‘nasties’ to be avoided…

* polyurethane foam

* eco-foam (which is mostly polyurethane foam)

* vinyl (PVC)

* phthalates

* chemical fire retardants or barriers

* industrial chemicals

Mattresses made with organic, natural and non-toxic materials are best. A good choice is an organic mattress made with organic cotton fabrics and pure wool. Look for non-toxic waterproofing and dust mite protection. And always check for natural, non-toxic fire retardants.

All our twin organic mattresses found here are made by the two fore-most organic mattress manufacturers in the USA – Naturepedic and Pure Rest Organics. All mattresses are backed with warranties and certification that ensures the quality of the organic materials used.

These organic mattresses all come with FREE shipping and a FREE organic pillow..
