If you’re a parent to a little one, you’ve likely found yourself questioning the design choices behind baby clothing, particularly those perplexing tiny snaps. Just when you thought getting your baby ready for bed couldn’t be more challenging, along come multiple snaps that require a PhD in engineering to figure out. And, let’s not even start on matching them up!
This week, a lighthearted video from a dad named Mike Thompson, who runs the popular Facebook page How To Dad, humorously addresses this dilemma. He poses a simple yet profound question: why are there so many tiny snaps? “I’m here to talk to all the baby clothing designers,” he begins. “I have hands—big dad hands! And these dad hands struggle with those tiny buttons. So many buttons!”
Let’s take a moment to appreciate the creativity of baby clothing designers. It’s almost as if they thrive on the chaos of exhausted parents. “Please, help the dad hands and consider creating more Velcro options,” he urges. Sure, Velcro may lead to some amusing moments—like your child inadvertently sticking to the cat or the couch—but we can all agree that baby clothes can be a real hassle.
