When shopping, check labels and look for fabrics like PVC, waxed canvas, and nylon. Watch out for leather trim and straps! And remember that wearing vegan clothes is easier than ever! The options are endless, and you’re sure to find a bag that’s a perfect fit for you and your family and that didn’t harm any animals.
It’s never too early to have compassion for animals. This adorable baby bib will keep vegan mealtime fun—and show how easy it is to help animals by always giving peas a chance!
