GREAT CLOTH DIAPER CHANGE:
Edmonton Parents Participate in Global World Record Attempt
Edmonton area babies will gather to have their diapers changed as Edmonton plays host to an international cloth diaper changing event taking place on Saturday, April 22nd, 2017. In its seventh year, The Great Cloth Diaper Change global event will attempt to break last year’s World Record™ of 8459 cloth diapers changed simultaneously around the globe. In 2012 and 2013, 94 and 76 of those babies respectively were changed here in Edmonton. In 2011 the record setting event saw 5026 babies changed around the globe with 106 of those babies changed right here in Edmonton - the single largest location worldwide! We are attempting to have the most babies change in one location again.
Organized by three local businesswomen, the 2017 Great Cloth Diaper Change expects to see well over 100 babies changed. The event will take place between 10am and 2pm, with the record breaking diaper change happening at exactly 11am.
What:
The Great Cloth Diaper Change - Edmonton parents breaking the World Record by changing their baby into a 100% reusable diaper. In addition to the world-record breaking activity, there will also be information tables, local cloth diaper vendors, a photo booth, crafts and activities for parents and kids. Those who want to learn more about modern cloth diapering options are encouraged to attend, as there is no cost and this event is open to everyone.
