Looking to start using a 360 degree diapering system and wondering how do options without snaps stay on baby?These kinds of diapers need some kind of fastener. There's a few options, and the most common option (maybe the only!) a few decades ago, was diaper pins. In this modern day and age, we've got other options: Snappis!
What is a Snappi?
A snap is a stretchy, plastic almost "T" shaped contraption that works with tension to keep your diapers fastened. There are teeth on each end of the Snappi that grip onto the fabric of a cloth diaper when stretched, and pull the points to a center when released. Remember: Snappis are used instead of diaper pins. Most babies aren't strong enough to remove Snappis (props if your baby is!), so don’t worry about your little one ripping off their diapers.
When would I use a Snappi?
Whenever you would use a diaper pin! If using a prefold or flat-style cloth diaper, Snappis make sure the diaper stays in place and doesn't bunch up under the cover.
Why Do People Love Snappis So Much?
Because they replace Diaper Pins! Snappis are the most popular cloth diaper fasteners on the market. Over 80 million units have been sold worldwide, and there is much trust in the Snappi name.
Additionally, people really love these fasteners when using prefolds for night time diapering. Snappis are easy to use even half-asleep in the middle of the night. They take less than 20 seconds to secure, even with a wiggling baby.
