I think this is pretty cute when you don't think about the yuck-factor of not bathing the baby in the evening. (which one scene at the end seems to indicate but I might be misreading that)

Åsk - I think that the idea is that the wipes take the place of the bath. I.e., they are that good!

I know of a similar product, mostly for the infirm, called Bath-In-A-Bag. You microwave the bag (8" long, 4" wide, 1" thick [20 cm long, 10 cm wide, 2.5 cm thick]) for 1 minute (or less), and then you use the 6 (? - could be 8) wipes inside to clean your entire body with warm sudsy stuff, that dries quickly with almost no residue.

P.S. For some reason, my sig disappeared. I was able to recreate it for this, but I don't know where to store it...

Arite, I'll go with that, makes sense. Still, that's not why you bather toddlers/babies in the evening. It's to get them to fall asleep all nice and warm and cozy and clean. A full day of play with no bath increases the likelyhood of them waking later, much like skipping the night nursing or late bottle would*. And that's bad because then mommy can't drink her bottle of chianti and eat bonbons in peace! Either way, I really like the ducky. It's a cute way of telling the story, and I don't think any moms would seriously skip night baths because of an ad, there's plenty of time to wipe away during the day and that point is loud and clear.

* yes I know way too much mommy stuff and it must have been lodged in my brain my entire life as it often surprises me. I have no idea where it came from. I hated kids and never interacted with babies before having one. Weird.

PS - your sig vanished because the sigfile area has been abused by spammers so I got sick of it and removed the option. Sorry! Always someone pissin' in the pool!
