Re: How can our kids drink our water?

We use klean kantine metal bottles. You can get them online or Seward Coop has

metal larger bottles also. They have the sports bottle tops. We love them, we

all use them including my 18 month daughter.

Ugh. The latest Mercola newsletter (he has obviously said it

before and I

missed it) says the polycarbonate water bottles are unsafe. I thought that

was the good kind and that the Eddie Bauer ones were safe?? I can not allow

my 5 year old to take a glass water bottle with her to soccer practice? Any

suggestions as to what to do?

How about stainless steel?

I bought my daughter a stainless steel thermos.

There are a few options:

Sigg bottles (coated aluminum, made in Switzerland) http://www.mysigg.com/

(available online, REI, www.theecstore.com,

KleanKanteen (stainless steel, made in China)

http://www.kleankanteen.com/ (available online, Whole Foods, etc.)

and for younger drinkers (soft sippy-cup style mouthpiece or nippples)

Born Free BPA-free plastic (made in the good ole USA)

http://www.newbornfree.com/ (available at Whole Foods, online, etc.)

They also make glass baby bottles.

We have all three, haven't had the heart to chuck my husband's old

Nalgene bottles, though we haven't used them in over a year. Perhaps I

can use them to store buttons and sewing notions! ; )

HTH,
