20 assorted wipes in Organic Cotton, Soy and Rayon from Bamboo

As a parent, sometimes you wish that you could turn back time, and do a few things differently.

I wish I would of used cloth diapers, and made my own wipes. I never did, and my sister did. Her son/my nephew had huge problems with diaper rash. She had to switch to cloth diapers, and figured, why not switch to making her own wipes as well?

My Baby's Green is hosting a great giveaway: One lucky winner will receive a pack of 20 assorted wipes in Organic Cotton, Soy and Rayon from Bamboo.

  

The material looks so soft. Perfect for a baby's tush!
 
I'm rehashing some baby wipe recipes that I posted awhile back. In these recipes it talks about using Bounty paper towels. This is the best paper towel to use. My sister has replaced paper towels with baby washcloths. Better yet you can replace them with: 20 assorted wipes in Organic Cotton, Soy and Rayon from Bamboo. You have to have a lot of them, but remember that you can wash them and reuse them. Paper towels you can not reuse, and they are harder on the bum.

Here are a few recipes for making you own wipes:

You will need:

1. 10 cup Tupperware container
2. 1/2 roll of Bounty paper towels
3. 2 tablespoons of baby oil

5. 2 cups of water

• Cut a roll of paper towels in half, remove cardboard. 
• Each roll of towels makes 2 containers of wipes, which lasts roughly 3 weeks.
• Mix the liquid ingredients, pull up first towel, pour on top of paper towels. 
• Let them sit for at least an hour before using them.
