Cleaning My Changing Pad

[kitykids3]

I use plastic sheeting to wrap up my changing pad like a present and tape underneath. It's easy to wipe down and when it gets too gnarly or gets a hole, I can just re-cover. Has made my changing pad last so much longer than normal.

I like this idea. Never thought of this. Thanks!

My first thought was magic eraser too.

Automatic dish washer liquid soap will also get out dingy grime. I've used it on toys that have been washed but look dingy....like your sanitizing dirt! Especially white or light colored toys.

One example is a kids table like the Little Tyke square table with the white top. There's little pits in the top that trap dirt. No amount of srubbing would get it clean. I spread a layer of liquid automatic dish washer soap on it and let it sit. Then wash it off. Voila! Clean as can be!

This soap does have bleach in it I believe. At least it smells like it does.

Regardless of my changing casesam.co.uk pad, I would use a sleeping mat.

I just use a $5 walmart mat , it does have folds but not a big deal for me . We are not allowed to use anything cloth so no covers .

My center uses nap mats that don't fold. They're all brown, so they're more like to rip before they look dingy enough to be a problem.

The last center I was at used white pads and we never actually figured out how to keep them white.

Chances are after 5 years that the plastic/vinyl has just broken down and there is nothing you can do about it. I have a stack of hand towels that I use on the floor. I don't have room for a changing table.

I haven't had anything a magic eraser couldn't clean up- even that little tykes plastic that looks dingy after a season.

They sell generic ones on amazon 100 for $10
