P.E.I. parents try to break Guinness diaper record

Some parents on Prince Edward Island are teaming up with others from around the globe to set a Guinness World Record for the most cloth diapers changed in 24 hours.

Hannah Terpstra, organizer of P.E.I.’s Great Cloth Diaper Change, said it’s spreading a message.

"It's very economic to do cloth diapers. I mean you're just washing them and reusing them. It's great. I think people are becoming a lot more aware of that and people are just realizing that it's not as hard anymore," she said.

Parents in about 300 locations around the world are partaking in the event.
