Cloth Diapers
In our carbon footprint conscious world, it's important to set a good example. So why not start with the youngest of us all, the ones still in diapers?
Cloth diapers are the choice of today's green people. Not only are they great for our environment, but they are a great way to save money. Instead of going to the grocery store once a week, you can just press wash on your machine. Sounds a lot easier, doesn't it? And maybe with all of the money you'll be saving, you and the spouse can finally afford to hire that babysitter you've been needing for your date night.
The Debate
* Cloth vs. Disposable
** Disposable diaper buyers usually spend $20 to $60 more a month than cloth diaper buyers.
** Although you use water to wash cloth diapers, it's much more environmentally friendly than the alternative: sitting in a dump, soiled and useless.
** With disposable diapers, it's much harder for children to notice that they're wet; however, with cloth diapers, children can feel their wetness more easily and this may quicken their eagerness to use the potty instead.
The Choices
Just like disposable diapers, there are tons of brands and types of
cloth diapers to choose from. When you use cloth diapers, you'll usually need one to four different things: diaper, diaper cover, diaper fastener, diaper lining. Take a look at your options below:
