How to Keep Wipes Moist
The comfort of your child is of utmost importance when wiping him clean after a diaper change. Baby wipes, or soft, pre-moistened towels, are one of the most common methods of cleanup. Though some manufacturers package their wipes in a sealing plastic container, others place them in plastic wrapping, which can leave them dry and scratchy over time. With proper storage and periodic re-moistening, you'll be able to keep your baby's wipes soft and refreshing.
Things You'll Need
- Plastic spray bottle
- Airtight container
- Sealable plastic bag
Instructions
Remove the wipes from their plastic wrapping or container. Fill a plastic spray bottle with cool water. Spray the top, bottom and sides of the stack of wipes with a light misting of water. Place the stack of wipes in an airtight sealable container. Store the container in a dry, cool area such as a bathroom cupboard. Avoid placing the container in front of a window or near an exhaust fan. Re-moisten the wipes with the spray bottle as needed. Place several wipes in a sealable plastic bag and add an ice cube if you're planning to run errands or be away from home for awhile. This will keep the wipes moist while you're on the go.
