GoodNites Disposable Bed Mats

Tracy Snyder Molina said: Even after you've mastered potty training during the day, it can take a lot longer for kids to be night-time potty trained. These super absorbent mats fit across a twin-size bed and are made with a soft, quiet material that helps your child sleep comfortably. Adhesive strips help keep the mat securely in place on top of your child's bed sheet. If an accident occurs, you can just take off the mat and put on a new one instead of having to change the whole bed in the middle of the night!
