Natural Baby & Family Expo (Great Cloth Diaper Change)

Natural Baby Expo!!! Whether you are a mom or a mom-to-be, this event will be a great resource to educate parents and provide them with appropriate tools and resources.  There will be workshops on cloth diapering, baby wearing, using wool to cloth diaper and more.  There will also be lots of local vendors here to display their family or baby related products!  This will be a perfect place to ask questions about everything baby-related! While admission is free, we suggest a $1 or $2 donation at the event to support the Real Diaper Association and to help offset event costs.

The Great Cloth Diaper Change will take place during the Baby Expo event!  What on earth is the Great Cloth Diaper Change???? It is an international event put on by the Real Diaper Association to bring together cloth diapering families to advocate for reusable diapers and have fun!  At 11:00am (local time for each location),  thousands of babies all over the world will be changed into a reusable diaper.  If the total number of babies changed this year is over the 8,301 record that was set in 2013, our new number will be recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records!  Plus, it is a great excuse for cloth diapering families to say hello to one another and have a fun day!
