They are machine washable and can be tumble dried.<\/p>\n<p>Brolly Sheets was launched in 2006 by mother Diane Hurford. She was looking for a solution to making the night time wet bed change easier. Instead of finding one, she created her own fantastic product naming it the Brolly Sheet.<\/p>\n<p>The product does make night time bed changes easier. Instead of a sheet being placed directly over the mattress, the Brolly Sheet is placed over the top of the bed sheet. Children can comfortably sleep on the sheet and if they have an accident,\u00a0 parents need only take off the Brolly Sheet rather than stripping down most of the bedding. As well as being available in five colours, they also come in different bed sizes.<\/p>\n<p>Chopsy Baby editor Jen Smith, tested out the Brolly Sheet with her two-year-old son Sidney.<\/p>\n<p>Jen says: \u201cAlthough my toddler has just come out of nappies, he is not always dry through the night or during longer daytime naps. I feel it is important for children to start realising they need the toilet at night and ditching the nappies. It is vital during this stage to protect the mattress otherwise it will end up smelling like a gent&#8217;s urinal.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For two months, I tested out the Brolly Sheets. I find them brilliant for use on the sofa when he takes a daytime nap as the single sheet covers the area he sleeps in. The only issue I found with night time is that like many modern waterproof mattress protectors, the sheet does not cover the entire bed area. For children who rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll around the bed in their sleep, it can be a guessing game about which end of the bed to cover. Despite this, the Brolly Sheet did not let me down once. This is a top parenting product which has become a must-have in my household.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Chopsy Baby loves the Brolly Sheet:<\/strong><br \/>\nThis sheet is really well made, it really is a quality item.<br \/>\nIt works perfectly.<br \/>\nIt can be used around the house to protect furniture during daytime naps.<br \/>\nIt washes and dries quickly and easily.<br \/>\nIt doesn&#8217;t rustle or cause any noise to disturb the sleeper.<br \/>\nIt is PVC free.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ideal for:<\/strong><br \/>\nToddlers coming out of nappies.<br \/>\nFor mums-to-be to protect the mattress from waters breaking.<br \/>\nFor breastfeeding mothers to lie on during the night to stop milk leaking into the mattress.<br \/>\nThe absorbent layer will hold up to 2 litres of water making it usable for older children and adults with continence problems.<\/p>\n<p>From \u00a329.95<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.BrollySheets.co.uk \" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.BrollySheets.co.uk <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brolly Sheets are a practical and good looking alternative to the hideous waterproof mattress protectors of old.
