When it comes to raising her 6-year-old daughter with hubby David Arquette, Scream 4 star Courteney Cox wants to ensure Coco grows up to appreciate the earth.

"I try to always be as green as possible," the actress, 46, tells UsMagazine.com. "For Coco, I got her Organic Matters [products], which Jen Meyer told me about."

Organic Matters -- which sells everything from bedding to beauty products -- offers a wide assortment of organic, natural and recycled alternatives to many commercially manufactured goods.

And Meyer -- a highly sought-after jewelry designer who wed Spiderman's Tobey Maguire in 2007 -- also inspired her pal to switch to more eco-friendly beauty products.

"She told me about this one called Weleda," Cox says. "It’s this shampoo and body wash. It’s natural and great -- I use it on Coco!"

When her daughter isn't learning about how to be green, Cox says Coco is just like any other girl her age.

"She's into Barbies," the Cougar Town star tells Us. "She likes Barbies a lot!"

And although the actress says she doesn't know if she'll have anymore children, she does offer some sage advice for new moms: "Be patient!"

    All that organic stuff is overpriced...no average person can afford the organically grown veggies. At least I won't pay the outrageous prices. At any rate, there are certain items that don't need to be organic to be healthy. Do the research. Also, much of the bottled watered is tap water, anyway.

    vanessa why do you nobodies feel the need to give your worthless two-sense to these wealthy famous celebs? it's not like they or anyone on this site gives a rat ass. fyi courtney tried for years and found it very difficult in getting pregnant, but finally she did through artificial insemination, let's hope the same thing happens to you so you can decide if you want more children!

    Why do some women think that one child isn't enough for a person to raise.I think she looks healthy at 47 and better than anyone in their 20's or 30's. Quick to judge could sometime backfire on those who want to bring down the messenger. I miss FRIENDS on NBC with all the laughter the ladies and guys shared with America on Thursday night but loving the playbacks on television also.

    Why is she carrying a six year old??? She 'can' have more children if she wants but I don't think it's a good idea. She is 46 years old!!!

    In interviews she's always people and product name dropping. Does she get paid, or is it just to seem cool? She's a generic actress who got lucky with a good ensemble sitcom ages ago. She should chill. Most people can't afford the things she brags about or recommends
