Bathing Suits that snap in the Crotch

So to all those parents and parents to be, it has finally happened.

Gone are the days of trying to get a 1 year old girl who has been playing in the water and is soaking wet, to lie down and let you pull off her entire bathing suit just to change her. You can undo the crotch snap and it is all done.



Snap Me Swimwear is the answer to our prayers

I have a 4 year old daughter and we prayed and prayed that something like this would come along.

Would you use these?

Happy Planning,
