We love you Pampers for this idea.
We have always wondered why there are no changing tables in mens lavs?
Pampers wants to make it easier for dads with small children by providing 5,000 changing tables for public restrooms across North America by 2021.
Pampers, owned by Procter & Gamble, said it’s time to fix changing-table inequality. The revolution has already begun, the first 500 locations have already been identified and installation is expected to be completed over the coming weeks, P&G said.
Part of what grabbed P&G’s attention was a viral photo of Donte Palmer with his child in his lap, squatting to change his son’s nappy.
Since that post, Palmer has founded #SquatForChange, an organisation committed to arming dads with the proper changing-table resources they need to be hands-on with their children.
OK – now bring it to the UK? We are waiting….

We have just launched a brand new baby product: the Angel Babybox.
Scandi Mummy says: “In principle you don’t need many things for a newborn yet there are some essentials and some that simply make life easier.
When we were offered to try the new @angelbabybox I was intrigued. The concept is similar to the baby box you receive in Finland and now Scotland, too. Yet instead of being made from simple cardboard this is crafted from luxurious and soft materials that not only makes it comfortable and safe for your little one but durable as well.
It’s multipurpose and can be used as a sleeping pod, changing mat, play mat as well as used for storage once your baby has outgrown it. Its clever design means it easily packs flat making it ideal for travelling. It was recently voted one of the best travel cots of 2019 by the Evening Standard.
As you can see Ossie has found it very comfortable and we will bring it on the road in September when we are off on our first family-of-four holiday. Pop over to my stories to see more…”
We have also been features in The Evening Standard’s Top Ten Travel Cots, Absolutely Mama, Baby, Female First, UKMUMSTV with more coverage to come!

Every parent, if they’re really honest, wants their child to be a bright spark, especially when it comes to maths. The key is to encourage their intelligence while remaining fun and holding their attention for more than five seconds.
The Curious Dragons is the first interactive learning system of games to help kids master maths.
Developed by a highly experienced advanced maths teacher, The Curious Dragons concept uses the ‘touch, visual and symbol’ approach employed with great success in Singapore, known as Singapore Maths. Singapore is routinely ranked at or near the top in global comparisons of mathematical ability and boasts one of the most admired education systems in the world!
Did You Know?
Singapore maths focuses on mastery, not just learning for a test, and supports the Maths Mastery method taught at school. It focuses on maths topics in greater depth. Based on the work of American psychologist, Jerome Bruner, the Singaporean curriculum begins with hands-on group activities with objects like buttons or dice. Next, students move onto the pictorial phase — drawing representations of concrete objects before moving on to abstract equations.
The Curious Dragons Box one is £27.99 and available at Amazon.co.uk
Did you know?
The UK ranks 27th in the world in the PISA tests of 2015 for maths achievement. Overall, only 11 per cent of students in the UK are top performers, this is compared to Singapore, the top performing country, where 35 per cent of students are top performers.
“We find the single most important factor in predicting later academic achievement is that children begin school with a mastery of early math and literacy concepts,” said Northwestern University researcher Greg Duncan. The study’s findings, which appear in an issue of Developmental Psychology, are based on an analysis of existing data from more than 35,000 preschoolers in the United States, Canada and England.
All Party Parliamentary Group 2014 found:
In 2013/14, 28% of children in England failed to achieve the expected level in mathematics at the end of the early years foundation stage (Department of Education 2014). And once they fall behind, they continue to do so throughout school. https://www.nationalnumeracy.org.uk/news/stop-nursery-children- falling-behind-maths-says-all-party-parliamentary-group http://www.northwestern.edu/newscenter/stories/2007/11/duncan.ht
