Hand me down pants are common place in our large household of 5 kids, however droopy drawers are a thing of the past. I was recently asked to review a product called Dapper Snappers which is designed to tighten up the waist of loose pants on your toddler or preschooler without providing the hindrance a normal toddler belt would provide.
Dapper Snappers are a clever elastic snapping invention that attaches to the belt loops in the back of your child's ill-fitting pants. The Dapper Snappers allow you to tighten up those trousers without interfering with diapering and potty time procedures. From the back it looks like a belt, but it doesn't continue on to the front. This means your child won't be fumbling with anything extra when they are in a rush to use the potty or dressing and undressing themselves.
If you haven't potty trained before, you may not realize just how HUGE it is to make sure pants go on and off without effort. Buckles, buttons, loops, ties, and hooks can all spell disaster and frustration if too difficult for your little one to fasten and unfasten.
I love this idea and can't but think ... why didn't I think of this? It's a simple easy to use solution to a problem I've faced for years. It is clearly a more comfortable option then many of those adjustable waist style pants which utilize buttoned elastic inside. My daughter often complained about the buttons digging in even when still loose. Dapper Snappers are a particularly great find for the parent of a thin tall child that needs longer length in their pants but constantly needs their waistband pulled tighter.
