Waste Not

Tuesday, June 16th, 2009

1_25080_fs_mio-soft-covers-funky-spots.jpgCloth or disposable? Do you even need to ask? Even the greenest of them all cannot convince herself to wash diapers when the trashcan is so convenient.

Think again: Bambino Mio has come up with a simple diapering system that gives you the best of both. This popular European brand (big in the U.K.) has revolutionized the idea of “reusable nappies” with a biodegradable liner (to flush), cotton diaper and waterproof cover (to wash and wear again) that extends through the potty training years. Not only will you do the environment a favor, but you will save some money in the long run after the initial investment of a starter set.

Don’t knock it ’till you try it.

Potty Humor

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

potty.jpgToilet-training is serious business — but don’t take it so seriously. Turning the milestone into a moment or two of silliness might just ease the transition from diaper to wiper.

The Potty Caddy provides a little laugh for when the toddler set is on the throne. This irreverent kit comes in a handy box to be transported to the toilette, with accessories like a book that addresses “serious” concerns (are there really monsters in the toilet?), mini magazines including Vanity Fairy and Rolling Stroller, reward stickers, a progress chart and of course, toilet paper. Plus, a brochure for parents is filled with tips from pediatric gastroenterologist Dr. William Spivak.

Soon you’ll all be singing the potty song.
