If you could un-invent something, what would it be?
If there was one thing that made an outing with potty-training toddlers extra hard (and frankly, it would already be a super stressful event), it was those electric hand-dryers.
They are terribly noisy. They seem to hit at just the right decibel to hurt little people sensitive to loud noises. If someone used the dryer while we were in the restroom, I would be holding my kids close to me and covering their ears until it was over.
When I did use them (before kids), most of the time they didn’t even work. Hands were still damp.
As there is often no alternative, we end up drying our hands on my clothing.
We love a restroom with recycled paper towels and a rubbish bin.
