What the testers said: “The Sleepy Tot Baby Comforter appealed immediately to the children, who would seek it out when distressed or tired and use it to soothe themselves.

What the testers said: “I found the nappy very easy to use and store and was very impressed with the range of colours/fastenings on the nappy. They were very discreet under clothing and they’re environmentally friendly. The are initially more expensive; however, for the amount of time that the Freetime nappy will last, I thought it was good value for money.”

Score: 80.7%
What the testers said: “I found this product very useful for carrying a child’s medication to Beach School. Being bright orange made it stand out and easy to find when the child needed their medication. I preferred the smaller Medpac as it fitted into the top of my rucksack; however, I can see how the large one would be useful if a child had a large amount of medication and was going away to a camp or something like that.”
