Giveaway for the Real Diaper Association Survey

All Cloth Diapering Families, We need your help!  


The RDA (real diaper association) has released a survey about cloth diapers!  Their goal is to get over 10,000 responses in order to get an accurate picture of current cloth diapering practices!  They are making progress but we need to help spread the word!  

The survey is located at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/2012GreatClothDiaperSurvey

It is for ALL current cloth diapering parents (no matter how many you use per day).  The survey instructions say it will take you 15-20 minutes to complete, however it took me much shorter.  Even better you may win prizes for participating!  


To help attract interest, we are doing a giveaway for an Aliens Sample Pack which includes 1 Shell (Omni/Echo and Hook and Loop or Snaps), 1 Dry Touch Pod, 1 Bamboo Pod, and 2 Packs of Wipes!




Thank you so much for participating!

  76. You know, when your CAPTCHA is so difficult that a computer-saavu commenter with perfect vision has to try it at least 6 or 7 times to get a comment posted, it might be time to get a different one. Or set your comments to be moderated. That was ridiculous.

  85. We love our SoftBums! But I would love to see a blog post about how to "teach" a babysitter, grandparent, etc, to be comfortable with cloth diapers. I feel I always end up on a soap box talking about WHY we've chosen to use cloth diapers... I just need some basic pointers to give to care providers so they know 1) how beneficial they are and 2) how easy to use they are.

  99. A comprehensive guide to prepping all types/brands of diapers. I'm working on such a document, and it is SO time-consuming because not all manufacturers put the info out there - and sometimes the care tags in the diapers conflict with what they say on their websites! Some say to use Tide or Gain and others say using such detergents will void their warranty. It makes me want to pull my hair out!
