Green Treehouse

Beyond the serious long-term cost savings and the “green effect” of cloth diapering, parents who use cloth diapers frequently claim that babies prefer cloth over disposables.

But can a baby who doesn’t yet know her name really have such a preference? As a mom of three, who has used both cloth and disposable diapers over the years, I say…absolutely! Wouldn’t you be able to feel the difference against your skin between wearing a comfy cotton underlayer and layers of superabsorbent polymers? That’s what I thought.

The Fuzzi Bunz Pocket Diaper is one example of an easy-to-use diaper that gently touches your baby’s skin. Use the Fuzzi Bunz diaper as you would a disposable (except reuse it!). The waterproof outer layer contains wetness and the inner microfeece pulls moisture away from your baby (think, rash-free comfort!). Plus, the stetchy leg elastic is designed to provide comfort for baby.

Still not convinced that a baby can tell the difference? Well, go ahead, check out this Fuzzi Bunz You Tube video:

Hey, Moms and Dads (and grandparents, too), it may be easy to come up with reasons not to “green diaper” your baby, but this YouTube video (thanks WTAE-TV Pittsburgh) may get you pumped to try your hand at it.  

Did you know that alternatives to disposable diapers can actually save you money? Maybe even lots of money over the years. Did you know that YOU single-handedly can make a dent in saving the Earth (and precious resources) for future generations by incorporating green diapering into your active lifestyle–even opting for cloth or green alternatives occasionally can make a big difference!

On your mark. Get ready. Get set. Go get eco-friendly diapering inspired!
