In the case of KIDS for the BAY, we helped them to understand CPSIA guidelines and age grading, and determined that a <a href=\"\/age-3-8.html\">water bottle tested for use by children<\/a> over the age of 3 was ideal. Based on the event date, color needs, and material preference, we suggested the <a href=\"\/stainless-steel-water-bottles.html\">Small Stainless Bolt Bottle<\/a>. The tracking numbers (mandated by CPSIA) are discrete and don\u2019t detract from the messaging, and KIDS for the BAY can feel confident that their giveaway water bottles are safe for anyone who uses them!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe ultimately chose Bulletin Bottle&#8217;s Small Stainless Bolt Bottle because it is made from food-grade stainless steel.\u00a0 We also chose the bottle because it is classified as child-safe.\u00a0 Although most of our bottles were given to adults, we felt that choosing a child-safe bottle would help ensure the safest type of bottle for all users&#8211;including adults,\u201d Sheela said.<\/p>\n<p>So, how does an environmental education organization celebrate its 20-year anniversary?\u00a0 By doing something for the Earth!\u00a0 On October 20, 2012, teachers, families, donors, board members and other supporters joined together to plant native plants beside East Bay\u2019s Codornices Creek, and to celebrate KIDS for the BAY\u2019s twenty years of successful environmental education programs. During that time, over 60,000 school students and 2,650 teachers have graduated from a KIDS for the BAY program!<\/p>\n<p>We are proud to have been a part of this wonderful program\u2019s celebration.
