Lets face it: baby wipes are expensive. You might spend two times more on wipes then on diapers for the years and months your baby needs them. My saving tip: make your own!

Make your own baby wipes

Here is how:

1. Fold 20 kitchen paper sheets into a little plastic box (I prefer 2 times folding, otherwise they become too small
2. Add olive-oil, sunflowerseed-oil, or baby oil. I prefer organic, non-perfumed oil. Let the sheets drain totally.
3. Wipe your baby

It’s as simple as that! You save tons of mony and this solution has many wins:

1. The wipes stay at room temperature. Soaped/water wipes tend to get cold.
2. The oil wipes of poop very easy
3. You don’t need creams any more, the skin is directly oiled in one movement
4. You can do the folding with your toddlers, they will love it. Do it on a fixed day in the week. I use to do this every monday as a chore. Small children love this rythmic household chore.
