You've Come a Long Way, Baby...

Here at Kanga Care Headquarters in beautiful Golden, Colorado, we have a LOT of diapers. In fact, we have a whole warehouse full of 'em. You might be surprised, though, to learn that not all of them are Rumparooz, EcoPosh or Lil Joeys!


Over the years, we have received many diapers from all sorts of people for all sorts of reasons. We decided to do a little Spring cleaning and donate a couple boxes of new and gently used diapers to a really fantastic organization here in Colorado. But before we did that, we wanted to go through them all and make sure that they were still in good condition. As we were sorting the diapers, there were a few that--ahem--stuck out to us. Diaper nerds that we are, we decided to share some of our favorite finds with you. We hope this is as entertaining for you as it was for us!

Help us name these unique diapers in the comments below!

These unique finds just go to show that making excellent diapers is no easy task! Our diapers have an amazing patented design that is sure to fit babies of all shapes and sizes--and they look fantastic at the same time! Thanks for playing along! 

Love, Kanga Care

Decoding the Mommy Blog

If you're new to cloth diapering, you've likely found some of the many online cloth diapering forums or popular mommy blogs in your research. Some sites are extremely helpful, hilarious and supportive. But they can also be really confusing if you're new to the cloth diapering lingo! For example,
"BTW, MIL thinks it's crazy that I NIP. IMO, she's the crazy one! Thankfully, DH agrees and totally supports me BF-ing the LO!"  
This translates to:
"By the way, my mother in law thinks it's crazy that I nurse in public. In my opinion, she's the crazy one! Thankfully, dear husband agrees and totally supports me breastfeeding the little one!"
