Organizing and storing outgrown baby clothes is a common problem for every other mother in particular and a family in general.Every couple receives many baby clothes from family and friends as presents on different occasions like baby showers, birthdays, Christmas, etc.Besides, parents usually do a fair amount of shopping for their kids according to their needs as well.The reason behind the gathering of many baby clothes is the fast rate of growth among children.They outgrow their clothes very quickly, sometimes before the right time or season approaches.All this collection leads to the problem of organizing and storing them for the next baby or the next season.How you are going to stock all this extra stuff is dependent upon the closet space, drawers or cupboards you already have or plan to purchase in the future.First of all clean up all the unused closets and cupboards you have at home and evaluate the space they possess.Decide on how you want to keep your child's clothes.If you wish to keep them washed and wrinkle free, go for separate hangers or a hanger cascade.The problem with hangers is the space they occupy.Space occupied by hangers can be utilized for other purposes or may be left empty for upcoming stock.Also, some of the baby clothes are too little to be stored on hangers.While storing those extra clothes, it is always wise to organize them then and there.This will allow you to pick up the clothes later on easily and quickly.You can create dividing sections according to the size, gender or types of cloths.Either you can do it by inviting a carpenter or you can simply do it by yourself.Trust me it is a lot of fun to make tags and paint the closets and closet dividers while waiting for the new guest.If you are willing to fold your baby clothing rather than hanging them, you should opt for the option of shelving in the closets.Shelving will provide great convenience in sorting clothes out plus will provide space for baby accessories such as shoes, stockings, hats, bibs etc.If you have chosen fabric shelving, remember to look for quality stuff, as a low quality fabric divider will easily collapse under the weight of the clothes.What do you do if your house doesn't have enough closets or you have older children occupying those closets, or you simply don't feel like using those closets as a storage facility? If that is the case you should go for vacuum storage bags.This option is especially good for people who want to store clothing for a longer period of time.Fold all the clothes and stuff them into a bag and put it away in garage or attic without worrying about bugs, insects or mildew.The disadvantage associated with this type of storage is the washing and ironing of clothes once they are taken out to be worn.But I personally think that wherever you store your family clothing it needs to be washed once they are taken out, so I guess it is no major drawback.A wicker basket, hamper or storage bench is another option to store outgrown clothes.This is especially workable for babies with less of an age difference, as you would need the clothes soon and packing and unpacking from vacuum bags will be a troubling job to do.There are beautiful wicker baskets and hampers available in the market.You can buy the one that is compatible with the kid's bedroom dcor to add magnificence to the room.Once you have decided on the way you are going to store your baby's clothing, it's time to sort and organize them before actually putting them away in their respective closets.Let me figure out some of the means by which you can sort out the collection of extra clothing.By size - The easiest way of sorting and storing clothes, but the problem is with the appropriate size guide.Some of the T-shirts are appropriate for a 2 -4 year old child, depending upon the growth and build of the child.By season - Sorting by season is a popular but a hassle demanding method to adopt.At the end of every season you would have to take the new stock out and put away the old ones.By gender- For families with only one baby this option is suitable.Keeping the unisex clothes apart from the gender specific clothes can make the job of searching easier because many onsies and jeans are unisex and it may be worth storing these apart to avoid having to go through lots of clothing should the need arise.By type - A very popular and the most effective way of organizing clothes.With this method you don't have to go through the whole stack to look for a particular pair of jeans, rather you would know the exact location of any specific cloth.Combination - Finding the best combination of the above methods could be another option, especially if you have more than one kid of different age groups or have too many clothes to organize.

Product Description
Cloth diapering has never been so easy! bumGenius One-Size Cloth Diapers feature our patent pending butterfly closure system to provide a comfortable, trim fit. This simple design makes cloth diapering as easy as using disposables. The familiar design makes bumGenius one-size cloth diapers perfect for care providers who might be resistant to cloth diapering (including daycares).
All bumGenius One-Size Cloth Diapers include a small, lightweight insert for newborns and a larger one-size insert for your growing baby. When your baby outgrows the newborn insert, it works as an overnight booster or as extra absorbency for heavy wetters. The soft, waterproof outer fabric keeps the diaper trim on your newborn and toddler. Soft, sueded inner fabric gently wicks moisture away from your baby's skin. Super stretchy, gentle leg and back elastic with rolled out casings keeps the yuck in and help to keep red marks away. Our unique covered* slot opening keeps your baby protected from moisture.
bumGenius One-Size Cloth Diapers fit most babies from 7 to 35+ pounds. No more sorting by size or having to carry multiple diapers when going out. Three snap-downs on the front of the diaper* allow you to easily adjust the size of the diaper as your baby grows. For newborns, fold down the insert stopper for an extra-small rise.
- Patented leak-proof outer cover and stretch-to-fit sides for a custom shape and fit.
- Easy to use durable snap closures help keep diapers on older babies.
- Patented covered lining opening protects baby from moisture. Soft lining wicks moisture away from baby.
- Diapers are bundled with two inserts: a newborn insert for newborns and a one-size insert for your older baby.
- Patented 3x3 snap system adjusts to fit babies 7-35+ pounds and gentle leg elastic prevents leakage.

| 119 of 124 people found the following review helpful  BumGenius 4.0 is almost caught up with Fuzzi Buns, By whatever "whatever" (Colorado, USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: bumGenius One-Size Snap Closure Cloth Diaper 4.0 - Grasshopper (Baby Product) BumGenius has almost caught up with FuzziBuns with the introduction of the new 4.0 version. All the things that made FuzziBuns far superior, BumGenius borrowed for this design. The availability of snaps means that you can use your diapers for a second child (the velcro does NOT last on velcro tabs of any brand - DO NOT GET VELCRO) and active babies don't rip off their snap diapers (wrangling them into the snaps, of course, is why some people like velcro - but not so great when they choose to rip off velcro and do their business on the nice rug). The biggest improvement is the replaceable elastic - something FuzziBuns introduced a while back. This is the number one reason my older cloth diapers "pooped" out (and I mean that in oh so many ways).So, the remaining differences (and here I'm talking about the latest versions of both - November 2010): I think FuzziBuns are softer and stay softer after washing. I think BumGenius stay drier longer. I think BumGenius...

BG is one of the biggest brands of cloth diapers so you can get them pretty much anywhere. The diapers are fine, I just don't think they are the best. I tried several other smaller brands that I think were better for a variety of reasons.I'll start with the things I liked about the BG diapers: 1. They are very absorbent diapers and rarely leaked. 2. They are very affordable. I got mine during a B5G1 sale, so my real cost per diaper was only $14. That's great for a one-size diaper. I also like that it comes with two inserts, although most OS pockets do. 3. They're cute! I loved all the bright color options and new prints. 4. Option of snaps or aplix. There are pros and cons of each, and it is nice to have the choice. But, there are quite a few things that could be improved on: 1. Quality - These...

So the first thing we did was to read a lot of reviews and talked to many people who all seem to contrasting views, so in the end we bought a few of each style diaper and tried them ourselves. The results:1. FuzziBunz (one size) these leaked on our newborn despite him being in weight range and trying all the possible settings. When I contacted FuzziBunz customer support I was told that "maybe he is too small" (despite being in the correct weight range). We also spent a lot of time adjusting all of the elastic points trying to find something that wasn't too tight (leaving red marks on his legs) vs. leaking and just when we find it he would grow and we would start again. 2. BumGenius (one size) these functioned pretty much the same as the FuzziBunz except that they don't have all the elastic adjustments, which we thought was... Read more |
