I'll be printing these out in the morning. </p> <p>1. What is not a type of cloth diaper? (pre-folds, fitted, pre-fastened, pocket, all-in-one)<br /> 2. What is not a cloth diaper brand (Charlie Bananas, Best Bottoms, HeineyHiders, Flips, BumGenius)<br /> 3. True/False: Hybrid diapers have washable, biodegradable &amp; disposable inserts.<br /> 4. True/False: The only way to secure a cloth diaper is to use safety pins.<br /> 5. True/False: There are cloth diapers services that can pick up soiled diaper and drop off clean ones.<br /> 6. True/False: It is estimated to take 250-500 years for a disposable diaper to decompose.<br /> 7. True/False: A year of generic disposable diapers will cost a family $1500 per child but cloth diaper systems can cost between $400-600.<br /> 8. True/False: Cloth diapers need to be replaced after each child.</p> <p>I did bring up money (question 7) but I hope it's not offensive.</p> <p>I hope it's not too hard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008486 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 22:09:46 +0000 BSB 2008486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HappyBaker: oh, I like that! </p> <p>Though, I think I need to pick and chose the questions carefully. I don't want non-cloth diaper parents to be offended. I don't want them to think disposables is wrong. Hmmm... Tricky</p> <p>Maybe I'll remove questions that talk about money. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008481 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 22:06:28 +0000 BSB 2008481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: cool! Great link! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008459 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:57:06 +0000 HappyBaker 2008459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think my favorite info tidbit that has also helped non cloth users in my family "get it" a little more is that disposable diapers take hundreds of years to decompose, which means the every single disposable diaper ever made is still sitting in a landfill somewhere! You could make that a T/F. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008437 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:39:00 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2008437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="http://www.gro-via.com/why-use-cloth-diapers.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.gro-via.com/why-use-cloth-diapers.html</a></p> <p>Check out this page for some ideas.

Thanks for some T/F questions!! Do you have the answer to the question about landfills?</p> <p>I was thinking of having a question about hybrids. Ask them what it is and chose from the two choices I give them.</p> <p>Like @blackbird: said, I don't want them to think CD users are crazy. Haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008423 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:29:31 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2008423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about some other facts<br /> Cloth diapers save ----- amount of space in landfills</p> <p>Which country produces the most brands of cloth diapers (I don't know this) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008421 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:28:25 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2008421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about cloth usage that could also help educate. Things like: </p> <p>T/f - cloth diapers have to be flushed in a toilet</p> <p>T/f - you cannot use normal diaper creams with cloth diapers </p> <p>T/f - cloth diapers need to be replaced after each child. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008394 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:14:00 +0000 BSB 2008394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anya: haha!

You think? Maybe I'll need to think of some questions that non-cloth diaper users could get. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008391 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:12:49 +0000 blackbird 2008391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: oh yeah give choices!! I would go with questions with pictures: which is x type of diaper...or....is it on right....I dunno, I only use AIOs and the other options confuse and overwhelm me ;) (and complicated questions may make people wonder wtf your sister is thinking lol) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008390 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:12:47 +0000 Anya 2008390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hineyhiders </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008379 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:08:27 +0000 BSB 2008379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: haha! For the fill in the blank, I think I'm going to give them choices. So that will help. Can you give me some easy questions? </p> <p>@Anya: I thought of that but I couldn't think of a fake one. You have any ideas? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008374 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:06:33 +0000 Mrs.Someone 2008374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think something like this will be lost on those not into CDing... Maybe a baby related quiz with some CD questions instead? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008371 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:04:28 +0000 Anya 2008371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cute idea! Maybe "which of these is not a brand of cloth diaper" since some have funny names like fuzzibuns, and then make one up </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008368 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:03:39 +0000 blackbird 2008368@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow I use cloth and these questions are intense lol. Pick some easy ones! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-create-a-cloth-diaper-quiz-for-my-sisters-baby-shower#post-2008363 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:02:21 +0000 BSB 2008363@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sister is planning on doing CD for her LO and since I'm semi-obsessed with CD, I thought I could put together a cloth diaper quiz for party attendants. I think it will be fun and a bit educational for some folks. (Oh, the baby shower is 'green' themed both team green and earth friendly. My sister is an environmental engineer, too, so the green theme fits.)</p> <p>-True/False: The only way to secure a cloth diaper is to use safety pins.<br /> -A newborn disposable diaper costs about $____, while an average cloth diaper cost $____ (I'll make this multiple choice and give them choices)<br /> -What is not a type of cloth diaper? (pre-folds, fitted, pre-fastened, pocket, all-in-one)<br /> -Some one-sized diapers can fit a child from ____ age to ____ age. (I'll make this multiple choice and give them choices)</p> <p>Can you think of any other questions to add to the quiz? </p>
