Holiday shopping can be stressful; finding the perfect gift for friends and family can be difficult especially if they are more natural minded. Or maybe you’re a tad bit crunchy yourself and want to find a gift that speaks to you while still being perfect for that person. I’ve compiled some of my favorite picks for gifts this year into one handy list.
Conscious Connection Parenting E-Course
This e-course presents a relationship oriented approach for parenting the whole child in a gentle respectful way. It emphasizes respect and mindfulness. It’s a wonderful course for any mama to be (or any parent for that matter) and with a variety of packages available, it can be customized to best meet their interests. I’m still in process of completing the course and I’ve learned so much. For more information and price, visit The Mind Body Mama’s website and let them know Mama Hippie sent you. Plus, use code HIPPIEMAMA50 to receive 50% off the full course fee!
Natural Mother To Be Body Oil
Nothing pampers a mama to be quite like getting a massage, and this massage oil by Herb Farm is perfect for a growing belly, hips and breasts. Not only is it all natural, but the smell is sweet and relaxing and the massage may help avoid stretchmarks, plus they grow a lot of their own herbs on their own farm. You can read my full review of this wonderful body oil here.
Herb Farm’s body oil is available on Amazon (affiliate link) or on Herb Farm’s website.

Calmies Natural Rubber Infant Teether
Although it’s not the flashiest thing on the list, Calmies are an amazing toy for babies. The shape and size of the ball make it easy for baby to pick up and the variety of textured nubs make it a great toy for teething. Made out of natural rubber, it’s a great ecofriendly nontoxic toy.
