Unwanted Items Don’t throw out any clothes, bags, shoes or household items you no longer need, like pillows, bed linen and toys. Instead, donate them at the Cloop recycling bin. Located outside the Sustainable Centre at City Sprouts (102 Henderson Road), the bin is accessible 24/7. This service is a partnership between Cloop, a circular fashion initiative focused on reducing fashion overconsumption and waste, and Life Line Clothing Singapore, a textile recycler that utilises an ISO-certified recycling system. They hope to divert textiles waste from the incinerator and prolong the lifespan of Semakau Landfill, Singapore’s only waste disposal island. citysprouts.com.sg

Quick Change Bugaboo says that it takes only a single second to fold the Bugaboo Butterfly stroller into a neat, tidy package. It was designed with parents of active toddlers from six months and weighing up to 22kg in mind – you can hold your child in one hand and use the other to fold the stroller. The Butterfly is also lightweight with an ultra-compact build, and can be stored upright almost anywhere; you can sling it over your shoulder with the strap, making it very portable. It utilises an air unfold technology to open with one quick movement – gravity does the rest! Available at First Few Years, Mothercare, Motherswork and Lazada. bugaboo.com
