Little Beetle Learners are wonderful training pants for elimination communication!  Pull on or off, snap off when needed.  What could be easier?

Two layers of fair trade organic velour cotton, with a third layer tucked into the wet zone and hidden by some very sporty stitching!

Little Beetle Learners Learners in Elemental Blue, Earthy Orange, and Willow Green are 100% natural fibers, that means no PUL or other waterproofing layer. Designed to catch a small miss while headed to the potty, the fit is trim yet contemporary.

Little Beetles in Jitterbug Red and Lotus Purple are made with a new fabric on the outside layer. It's still a wonderfully soft organic cotton velour but for stability, 20% (post consumer) recycled polyester has been added to the backing. The white fabric inside remains 100% organic cotton. To learn more about this decision and the resulting reduction in BFB's carbon footprint, please see Better for Baby's blog entry entitled Uncompromising.

How to Wash:  Wash and dry just as you do your cloth diapers. These do not need repeated pre-washing: once will do.  Better for Babies recommend a cold pre-wash/wash or rinse first, then a hot wash (140 degrees Fahrenheit) Do not boil your diapers as this can ruin the elastic. Use a small amount of laundry detergent each time (too much detergent can create a residue). Use vinegar occasionally in the rinse to help keep the diapers soft. And please, no fabric softener or treatments of any kind. These can ruin a diaper's absorbency.

Drying: It may not be realistic every time, but the more you can dry your Little Beetles on low or medium the longer their life will be.

Like all products at EC Wear, Little Beetle learners are sweatshop-free.  These were previously made in a certified organic and fair trade facility in India, but Better for Babies has recently began manufacturing the Little Beetle Learners in Georgia.  Some of our curent stock is from each origin.

Little Beetle has closed.  Supply limited to stock on hand and will not be available in the future.
