Little Beetle Learners - a wonderful way to welcome your little one into the world of potty learning! 

Pull on, snap off OR pull on, pull off. What could be easier? 

Two layers of our favorite fair trade organic velour cotton, with a third layer tucked into the wet zone and hidden by some very sporty stitching! Our Learners are 100% natural fibers, that means no PUL or other waterproofing layer. (Couple with a wool soaker short for heavy duty needs). Designed to catch an small accident or miss while headed to the potty, the fit is trim yet contemporary. Surprisingly enough, we find these to be almost as absorbent as our diapers and thus can serve double duty if you like (for use as a diaper, add a doubler and wool soaker short) 

Available in Sunny Orange, Elemental Blue, Willow Green, Jitterbug Red*, and Lotus Purple* 

* Please note that Little Beetles in Jitterbug Red and Lotus Purple are made with a new fabric on the outside layer. It's still a wonderfully soft organic cotton velour but for stability, 20% (post consumer) recycled polyester has been added to the backing. The white fabric inside remains 100% organic cotton. To learn more about this decision and the resulting reduction in BFB's carbon footprint, please see our blog entry entitled Uncompromising (www.betterforbabiesblog.com)

In LOVE with Little Beetle Learners! December 9, 2011
Reviewer: Serena Barnett from San Diego, CA United States  
I love these trainers.  They are underwear-esque - but thick enough to sufficiently absorb a full accident without leaking on the floor/carpet.  Also, I can visually see if my son has an accident since the outer fabric appears darker when wet.  

My son is 38 lbs, 40" tall, and very slender through the waist/hips/thighs.  I originally bought size large based on reviews that these run small - and the weight ranges.  Unfortunately the large, even after prepping, were way too big on him.  The trainers ballooned out everywhere - and he could not wear them under his pants.  I tried a medium pair and it fit perfectly!

Following are the measurements for the medium and large - hopefully these will be more helpful than the weight ranges:  

MEDIUM:  Waist 16" -- Thighs 12.50"-- Rise 17"--  Hips (fullest point) 21"

LARGE:  Waist 18.5" -- Thighs 13" -- Rise 18"  -- Hips (fullest point) 22"

These measurements are unstretched - the waist and thighs can stretch a few inches.

Versatile training pants December 14, 2010
Reviewer: Jess from Verona, WI United States  
We EC with our son and used these at night under the wool soaker shorts for a long time. The combo was great for nighttime—absorbant and easy to get off, but would've been a bit bulky during the day. A few months ago, they started getting a bit small to slip on in the dark, so we've started to use them during the day and now they're our favorite under for going out, since the snaps make them so easy for changing when we have a miss! The only things I don't like are the bulky sides with snaps against the skin—seems like they'd be uncomfortable. But otherwise, they're a favorite!

Jitterbug Red shrinks less & came just in time! September 28, 2010
Reviewer: Selena Volodzskis from California  
While I personally still prefer a 100% natural fiber product (and know first hand that customers choose your Little Beetle products because they have zero synthetic fiber), I will say that the new fabric seems to shrink less over time than the 100% organic cotton velour. The color is beautiful - and in our house it came none too soon. My youngest (who turned 2 a few weeks ago) has decided she only wants to wear red (head to toe), and the trainers are our saving grace. She has been wearing the same red Hawaiian dress and red clogs for almost a month straight, and if I don't manage to get her trainers washed and dried while she sleeps, she insists on going commando! It is challenging since I am rotating between only two pair of red trainers, but pretty funny.

Great product but... April 7, 2010
Reviewer: Natalia from Racine, WI United States  
I love these trainers: they are trim, soft and absorbant enough not to make a puddle on the floor. They are a good fit on my son who's on the smaller side. I just wish they had a version without snaps as it seems that it's a bit bulky on the sides. Then I'd buy them without regards to the price.

My Son Loved These! January 19, 2010
Reviewer: sarah  
I bought these for my son as the natural progression from cloth diapers, and he loved them! Called them his "underwears", and was so proud to not wet them...so proud in fact, he learned to use the potty in less than one week! What I really loved about them is how soft they are, and how I could get them off quickly with the snaps if needed.
