Everyone knows kids are messy. But I bet you have no idea just how messy they can be without you even seeing it! Most parents have a pack n play of some sort. Here's a way to save money on buying a new one OR being confident in buying a "previously loved" one.
Here is how I cleaned the one that a little girl I babysat brought to take naps in.
Here's all that you will need:
I used equal parts of each.*((( For my all natural mommy's you can substitute the laundry detergent to what you would normally use. I wash my son's stuff in all so that's what I used.)))
You'll also need your pack n play and something to soak it in, preferably a tub.
Step 1:
Fill your tub with hot water and the detergent, vinegar, and baking soda.
Step 2:
Submerge your pack n play!
(If your support board contains cardboard, be careful if you submerged it because it can warp. If it's disgusting like this one was, I'd suggest taking your chances.)
Step 3:
Check on it after about 20-30 mins, if it was already pretty clean it should be ready to rinse.
I let this one go for an hour, agitating it about every 20 mins. before rinsing.
Step 4:
Allow it to dry in the sun for a few hours. & Just like new!!!!
