Keep that bib on!


Here's a nifty tip I learned from Heidi, mother of 4:

Use a binder clip to fasten a velcro bib.

In my experience with most velcro bibs, either the velcro is too weak and the kiddo pulls the bib off, and/or I need to fasten the neck hole smaller than the velcro allows. I had both of these problems with the super-cute oilcloth bib my daughter got for Christmas. Using a binder clip to keep it on allows me to make good use of it anyways!

This way I can use and reuse the wipeable oilcloth bib instead of having to wash her old cloth bibs constantly. This makes things simpler for me!

I love those reusable bibs! I have a post on my favorite bib, the Baby Bjorn, over at my site:

It has a great "latch" in the back that stays put!

That's a great idea. My 9 month old has recently discovered that he can pull his cloth bibs off because the velcro isn't tough enough. Thanks!

Perfect. Third child's bibs don't always even have working Velcro. This is a great tip!
