Moms everywhere can share their babies' tricky moves by visiting the Huggies branded YouTube channel's Squirmy Baby Roundup to create a Huggies Little Movers Slip-On Diaper commercial and name their baby's twists and turns. In the first two days of the channel's premiere, more than 2,000 parents have uploaded videos of their Jumping Bean, Kick n' Roller and more!

Celebrity Moms Melissa Rycroft, Tia Mowry and Emily Procter are joining the fun and showing off their babies' squirmy moves. These Moms are excited to embrace their little ones' squirmy nature and celebrate their active moves.

"Now that my Ava is an active mover, chasing her for changing time has turned into a squirmy, topsy-turvy event!" said celeb Mom, Melissa Rycroft. "Using Huggies Little Movers Slip-On Diapers helps make changing my 'Boot Scootin' Booty' a little easier."

"This past year Huggies named their own squirmers from the Helicopter to the Escape Artist, and now the brand is excited to extend the opportunity for parents to show-off their babies' own unique moves," said Erik Seidel, Vice President, Huggies Brand.

Making Changing Time An Easy Time
