Yep, change is good.
Especially when you can smell the dirty diaper from across a crowded room. Make it even better with a nappy changing mat from Apple & Bee.
The Aussie-designed mats are made with an outer layer of organic cotton and an inner layer of waterproofed denim that’s a cinch to clean. Double padding makes it extra comfy for itty-bitty heads and butts. Patterns like blue, red, and yellow yachts or pink and purple ladybugs are a welcome distraction from the task at hand.
Once they’ve outgrown their nappies, swap it for one of the kid’s travel totes.
Eventually, the change is gonna come.
Available at Sparrow, 3266 Cahuenga Boulevard West, at Barham Boulevard, Cahuenga Pass (323-512-7122 or shopsparrowla.com). To see styles, go to appleandbee.com.
