Energy Pig


Decorating a kid's room takes a fair amount of thought. I'm not talking deciding between the SpongeBob Squarepants or Disney decor; I'm talking some interesting, tasteful stuff that'll stimulate the kid AND not make you want to heave.

That's why I like this silly lamp. It's an energy-saving piggy, done up in minimalist black and white and boasting a super-efficient curly florescent bulb for a tail. Yeah, I know, those fancy new bulbs give off some seriously crummy light, but it's so good to set an example. Apparently, the big plus of those inadequate bulbs is their stay-cool capacity; no burn risk for you or your tot. And it's just so cute.

Find the pig lamp at www.momastore.org. And teach your kid that, sometimes, it's ok to be a pig for the planet.
