A small toothbrush with a big eco-heart
We're rather fond of the humble toothbrush. It works hard, does it's job without complaint, and usually gets very little thanks for it. But when you think about how many toothbrushes get tossed in the bin every year - most of them plastic - it becomes clear that this little tool could be doing a lot more for the planet.
This child-sized bamboo toothbrush from Alter/native By Suma is a brilliant plastic-free alternative to the plastic ones. It's made with little mouths in mind - smaller, softer, and gentler, but still perfectly capable of scrubbing away the aftermath of adventurous lunchtimes and bedtime snacks. The soft PBT bristles are infused with charcoal, which is naturally deodorising and helps lift plaque without being harsh on gums.
Made from bamboo, not bother
The handle is made from sustainably grown bamboo - strong, smooth, and completely compostable. Once it's come to the end of its life, you can snap off the bristled head and pop the handle straight in your home compost or garden waste. A satisfying little ritual that feels rather more thoughtful than chucking another plastic toothbrush in the bin.
We like to keep things as fuss-free as possible, and this eco-friendly toothbrush fits the bill perfectly. It comes packaged in simple cardboard with no plastic and no hidden nasties. And, the whole thing is vegan and cruelty-free. It's one of those sustainable bathroom swaps that's easy to make but adds up to a lot over time, especially when you've got a whole household brushing twice a day.
Start them off the right way
We think it's lovely when little ones get excited about looking after their teeth - and it's even better when they learn to look after the planet at the same time. Whether you're switching over your family's bathroom routine or putting together a plastic-free starter kit for a budding eco-warrior, this children's bamboo toothbrush is a good place to begin.
