Nappy changes are an important part of the daily routine of a child, however, the focus on health and hygiene and the everyday nature of this activity often eclipse the enormous potential this precious one-on-one time provides for babies and toddlers to connect with and learn from their carer.
On average there are 5,000 nappy changes in the first three years of a child's life, and typically this routine is completed quickly, taking on average less than three minutes.
