Let’s see what our experts have to say about our MCN Topic: Changing Time – What’s a useful distraction for a wriggly baby at nappy change time?

Emma from Wrap ‘Em recommends:

Anything they aren’t allowed to normally have does the trick… or a toy/puzzle that’s a little bit tricky and needs them to do something

Kendall from Australian Baby Supplies recommends:

I let my son hold an item from the change table that he doesn’t usually get to touch. It could be the wipe spray bottle, a cloth wipe or anything else nearby.

Melissa from Little Para Pants recommends:

Anything that makes noise or can go in the mouth! Plus all the tips I included in this article:  6 Tips for Easier Nappy Changes.

Charndra from Part Time Nappy Free recommends:

I often do them on the move, or give bubble a full wash down in the laundry sink, with toys nearby.

Nyree from Kodomo recommends:

Songs, songs and more songs, nursery rhymes, children’s songs, pop songs, even made-up nonsense rhymes, anything to get them focused on you and not the nappy change! Amazing how any words at all can be put to the tune of Frere Jacques.
