Make your own baby wipes (also wet wipes, lysol wipes, etc)?
- 4-quart square or round container – (8” H x 7.25” W x 7.25” D)
(Stickers are optional but fun) - ½ roll Bounty Select-A-Size paper towels (you MUST use the “super” or “giant” sized roll! If you use a standard roll the wipes will be too wet). I’ve tried many brands of select-a-size paper towels – Viva, Sparkle, Brawny – and I think that Bounty produces the best quality.
- 2 ½ cups hot water
- 2 T baby bath (generic is fine)
- 2 T baby oil (if your children are sensitive to mineral oil, substitute coconut or vegetable oil)
- Cutting board, serrated bread knife, quart-sized measuring cup, measuring spoons
To make the wipes:
- Cut paper towel roll in half
- Place towels in container, cut side down. Mix oil and bath with hot water,Pour over towels.
- Cover, flip upside down. Wait 5 minutes. Remove cardboard tube.
- keep the wipes tightly closed, and store in a cool area, away from direct sunlight
