Pants in a Pinch
Filed under: Babies, Toddlers Preschoolers, Preschoolers, Development/Milestones: Babies, Baby Essentials, Decor
Not having a child in diapers has made me lazy. I'm constantly unprepared when I leave the house, despite the fact that one of my children is fairly fresh out of potty training. Accidents happen, and I'm left slapping myself on the forehead for not bringing a change of clothing.Pants in a Pinch hopes to help people like me. They've taken a pair of 100% cotton pants and squeezed them into a disc that fits easily in the palm of your hand...and your purse. So the next time your little one says, "Mama? I have to go potty," when she already did, you'll be prepared.
The biggest drawback to Pants in a Pinch is the price, $20 per pair. Not only is that expensive for one pair of pants, chances are that you and I don't have the technology to get those pants back into that little disc. I'm imagining it's like those maddening pop-up tents that claim they are easy to fold, but just end up making me say terrible, terrible words under my breath.

Sherry said...I guess that is an interesting gimmick, but certainly something I think is totally wasteful and unneccessary.
Don't see what is so hard about sticking a pair of underwear and pants in a little ziplock bag and sticking them in your purse/bag. Yes, it takes up a bit more room, but that thing is $20 and a baggie is what? 3 cents? I can also use the baggie to hold the dirty clothing and even wash it out and reuse it. I very seriously doubt I'd be getting those $20 pants back into their little tin, and it certainly won't hold pee soaked pants.

jane said...I agree with you 100% Sherry. Most of my little guys pants that he wears everyday don’t cost $20. The only kind we have “splurged” on were his Carharts cause he had to be just like daddy!
This idea is crazy and lazy.
