I find it pretty amazing how far cloth diapers have come in the last, oh say, 40 years. Yes, I actually remember the days of safety pins and plastic pants.

After quite a few years of the prominence of disposable diapers, we all finally woke up and wondered- what happens when there is no more “away” to throw things away to - in other words, when we’ve completely filled up our landfills with disposable diapers - then what?

So more and more parents are switching to cloth or at least some combination of cloth and disposables.  I admit, there are plenty of times when cloth diapers really are a bit of hassle.

But, even if you only use cloth some of the time, the latest all-in-one cloth diapers are the way to go. This variety pack from Kushie’s is a great starter kit for the new Mom to try out cloth diapers. Rather than struggling with cloth diapers and diaper holders, this all in one design makes using cloth easier.

Made from 100% cotton with a 100% vinyl coating to keep baby dry, on the outside anyway, they feature elastic to snugly fit around chubby legs and hook and eye closures built in. Plus, a extra flap for added absorbency keeps heavy wetters just a bit dryer.
