Wet Dry Bag - Mini Mathletes

The Wet/Dry Bag in Mini Mathletes is a two-zippered tote with a waterproof inner lining — separate compartments for clean items and wet items, so the swimsuit that came off at the pool isn't sitting against the dry clothes you brought as a backup. Stroller-clip handle, machine-washable.

WHAT IT DOES
The diaper bag situation gets unmanageable around the pool/beach/swim-lesson age (typically 6-24 months). A wet bathing suit needs to come off; a dry one needs to go on; both have to live somewhere on the way home. The Wet/Dry Bag splits the bag in half — one zip compartment with a waterproof liner for the wet stuff, one zip compartment with a dry fabric liner for the clean stuff. The dividing wall is waterproof too, so the wet half doesn't leak into the dry half on the drive home.

MATERIAL AND SAFETY
Outer: 100% cotton muslin (Tanboocel viscose-bamboo blend) printed in Mini Mathletes. Inner waterproof liner: TPU-laminated polyester — PVC-free, food-safe, machine-washable. Zippers are non-toxic, nickel-free. Stroller-clip handle.

HOW TO USE IT
Clip the bag to a stroller handle, diaper bag strap, or beach tote. Open the dry zip for clean clothes, snacks, books. Open the wet zip for damp swimsuits, used bibs, soiled clothes. The two compartments don't communicate — the wet side won't leak into the dry side even if you sit on the bag during a car ride.

CARE
Machine wash cold with like colors. Air dry. Don't tumble dry (the TPU lining can warp at high heat). Wipe the inside of the wet compartment with a damp cloth between uses to extend the life of the waterproof lining.

WHO IT'S FOR
Active families with babies and toddlers — beach days, pool days, swim lessons, gymnastics, daycare drop-offs with extra clothes. The bag holds a typical swimsuit + towel + change of clothes for a baby up to 24 months.

THE PRINT
Mini Mathletes is from our illustrated print library, designed to coordinate with our matching hooded towels and swaddles. Cross-shopping with the matching hooded towel set is a common bundle for swim-class parents.

GIFTING
At $14.97, the wet/dry bag is one of the most useful gifts for second-time parents (first-time parents often don't know they'll need one until the first beach day). Pair with a hooded towel for a complete swim-day gift.

DESIGNED IN CANADA
Loulou Lollipop has been making bath and travel products in Vancouver since 2014. The Wet/Dry Bag was added to the line in 2019 after parents on the team kept improvising with grocery bags after swim class. The two-compartment design with a waterproof divider was tested over a swim-school season before going into production.

WHY TPU LINING
TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) is the alternative to PVC for waterproof bag linings. PVC contains phthalates and is harder to recycle; TPU does not contain phthalates and is more durable across machine washes. The cost difference is real, but for a bag that touches baby clothes daily, the material choice matters. The TPU lining in the Loulou Lollipop Wet/Dry Bag is rated for 200+ machine wash cycles before the waterproof seal starts to break down — which translates to roughly two years of weekly swim-class use.

GIFTING
The wet/dry bag is the most useful gift for second-time parents, who already have the basics covered and know they want bag organization for the messy moments. Pair with a matching hooded towel for a $55-65 swim-class gift that crosses the free-shipping threshold. The print coordinates with the rest of our Bathe range so a complete bath/swim gift looks intentional, not random.
