One day I read about some toy recalls, and then a few days earlier I was spending literally hours trying to dig up information about Bisephenol-A in sippy cups.  I wasted a whole afternoon researching this information all over the Internet instead of drawing with chalk with my kid.  I thought to myself “You are probably not the only parent spending time looking for this info...”.  So I got a wild hair and bought a domain and started keeping track of all the stuff I was finding.  I don’t have time to spend designing it right now but with the holidays coming I felt it was urgent enough to leave it as is and release it to the parents of the wild Internet.

Safe Mama (http://safemama.com).  I think this will be really useful for people so they don’t have to traipse all over the earth to find good information.  I think it’s a great resource (at least it has been for me, to have everything in one spot) for not only parents, but we all know people with kids.  What do you buy them for holidays? birthdays?  This could potentially be helpful for anyone who knows a kid. 

I hope to expand it to include much more info about safety with plastics, baby gear and organic and eco-friendly topics too.  With the holidays approaching and the onslaught of toy recalls happening in the news I felt it was a good time to at least get it up and start spreading its glorious usefulness to the Internet.

So there you go.  Enjoy… spread the word.
