WEST NEWBURY, Mass. — Kidzsack announced today that was featured as an exclusive eco-toy at the recent Hot Mom’s Club ‘Pregnancy Awareness Month’ (PAM) awareness event held in Beverly Hills, CA last month. Hosted by PAM founder Anna Getty and celebrities Ricki Lake, Kelly Rutherford, and Josie Maran, the event was designed to inspire and provide expectant women and new parents with tools and information to experience a healthful pregnancy and family lifestyle .
The exciting event celebrated the four initiatives of the month-long campaign: education, exercise, nutrition & wellness and nurture. A portion of the proceeds benefited Healthy Child Healthy World, a non-profit agency that encourages parents to protect their children from harmful chemicals in the environment.
Kidzsack was featured in a unique ‘Eco Lounge’ for parents and children, which encouraged nurturing creativity and ‘playing green’. Complimentary Kidzsacks were given to the smallest guests at the event. The festivities also included a fashion show by ‘Pea in the Pod,’ panel discussions by pregnancy experts, crafts and musical entertainment. Celebrity attendees included Jason Priestly and his wife Naomi and their daughter. Grey’s Anatomy star Jessica Capshaw and her husband Christopher Gavigan, CEO of Healthy Child Healthy World and panelist speaker at the event.
The Kidzsack bag is a line of multifunctional backsacks for children – it is both a bag and a craft project. Each backsack is screen printed with an original design, and has an inside pocket that hold 8 non-toxic, water-based markers. Every child can color their Kidzsack anyway they wish.

Made of eco-friendly, heavy weight, 100% recycled cotton/poly canvas – the Kidzsack can hold a soccer ball, books, or whatever the young explorer desires. It is perfect for the beach or travel.
