Snappi’s, Prefolds And Pins Oh My!

November 17, 2008 · Filed Under 31 Days Of Giveaways · 13 Comments 

One of the easiest ways to get started with cloth diapers is the old fashioned prefold!  Some prefolds, pins or snappi and a few covers and you are good to go.  In fact this happens to be my method of choice.  I prefer the prefolds because they can be used through a lot more sizes than fitted and AIO’s.

I think the Snappi is one of the greatest cloth diapering related inventions EVER! I mean really why couldn’t I have thought of that?  There is nothing easier than a Snappi.  You just learn a quick fold that you prefer and snappi that sucker on!  I myself prefer the bikini twist.

If you have a child that likes to take off the diaper you may want to go with the tried and true diaper pin. Diaper pins are the old way of fastening a diaper and still a preferred method by many people.

So you have your prefolds, snappis and diaper pins.  You just need a few covers (I myself prefer wool) and you are almost set to go.  Grab yourself a kitchen garbage can and a pail liner throw a diaper pail deodorizer in there to keep it all nice and fresh!

Cloth diapering is really very easy.  It’s good for your baby and good for our Earth!

“Our daughter has severe eczema. When she was a baby we used to use diaper pins to pin socks over her hands (to the sleeves of her pajamas) to keep her from scratching.” Analisa R

“I always have extra prefolds in my diaper bag and have used them for various things at any give time: burp cloth, cleaning up spills, for a game of peek-a-boo, to cover little toes, changing pad, a place to sit on when doing an impromptu picnic at the playground, a placemat, and whatever else I may need.

Can you imagine what McGyver could do if only he carried prefolds?” Veronica

(on a personal note- That would make for an interesting show McGyver and prefold diapers!)
