This post contains affiliate links which means I may receive a commission at no extra cost to you if you make a purchase after clicking one of my links. Stocking traditions vary a lot from family to family. I know many people that only put oranges in their stockings due to the St. Nicholas legend of gifting gold balls in stockings (that later turned into oranges). Other people will put high-quality items or electronics--these gifts don't differ much from what is under the tree; they are just what are physically the smallest. On the other hand, some people use [...]

Cloth Diapering Vs Disposable Diapers – Let’s Look At The Facts

By |2019-01-05T01:16:50+00:00November 19, 2018|Baby, Beginner, Green Home|

In this day and age, it seems like almost any parenting decision is controversial. I also believe our culture is getting more and more sensitive, meaning that if people share a decision they have made and why they chose to do it, other people take it personally as a judgment against those who do something different. At Rocking the Cloth, I want to empower you to make informed decisions. I pride myself on delivering facts and sharing both sides of the diaper debate. There are some convincing reasons to choose disposables, though as you can probably tell from this [...]

I recently purchased the Grovia ONE all-in-one diaper to use on my toddler for nighttime. I was on the hunt for a new nighttime option because my son had outgrown his fitted, and we were just stuffing lots of inserts into his pockets for nighttime. It works well enough, but I knew we needed to find a reliable solution. I had heard about the Grovia ONE diaper on Facebook. So many people recommended [...]

Cloth Diaper Laundry Detergent -Do I Need A Special Kind?

By |2019-12-31T17:32:17+00:00November 15, 2018|Beginner, Troubleshooting, Washing Issues|

Laundry detergent is a big deal in the cloth diapering world. It seems everywhere you look, you get conflicting advice about what kind of detergent you need and how much you need. Do you really need a special cloth diaper laundry detergent? Some brands of diapers will push for you to buy their own line of detergent by saying it's the only one that's safe to use on their diapers (not true!). Other people will want to buy the most natural detergent possible (though there are some acceptable eco-friendly detergents you can use), but the majority of what is [...]

Minimalist Christmas Gift Ideas – The Most Meaningful Christmas

By |2019-11-03T11:32:49+00:00November 14, 2018|Gifts, Minimalism|

This post contains affiliate links. The holidays are a beautiful and nostalgic time of year. Timeless carols and hymns get played while we bake platters of cookies and other treats. We sit by warm and toasty fires as we drink coffee and cocoa, watching It's A Wonderful Life or A Christmas Carol (I like the Muppet version ;)). Caroling, driving around to look at Christmas lights, and cutting down your own Christmas tree may all be part of your family traditions for the season. Another big part of the season is PRESENTS! You may brave the crowds each weekend [...]

This post contains affiliate links which means I may receive a commission at no extra cost to you if you make a purchase after clicking my link. Target is possibly one of the most popular stores in America, especially among moms! It seems like you can get almost anything at Target, and if not in store, you can at least find most things on their website. Did you know that Target sells cloth diapers? Back when I was pregnant with my oldest child, they really only sold Gerber prefolds, bumGenius (their selection for these wasn't great), and gDiapers. But [...]

More and more people are becoming increasingly concerned about the types of chemicals that are in various home products. Knowing that there are links between various chemicals and certain types of cancers (among other health issues), it makes sense that people are starting to look for natural all-purpose cleaners to use in their home. I have spent a lot of time looking into various cleaners for my home. I wanted my home to [...]
