Introducing Truly Genius Tuesday.
One of our favorite brands at Cotton Babies happens to be one of our own, the Genius Series! It all started several years ago when we were looking to feature prints on bumGenius and Flip cloth diapers. bumGenius has developed quite a personality over the years, and it was important to our team that we tell a special story, so we thought: why not tell the stories of geniuses who inspire us? Through our research, we’ve discovered all sorts of geniuses! From treasure hunters to mathematicians, adventurers to movie stars, each person has used their talents to leave an inspirational mark on the world.
As the Genius Series has grown, it’s been so fun (and sometimes intense) to watch you interact with our Geniuses. Some loved Louis because they’re music teachers, others had to have Austen because they’re “Janeites” at heart, and who doesn’t love Jules… It’s an ever-evolving ride! With our list of Geniuses becoming quite extensive, we thought it would be fun to dedicate some time once a week to revisit why we love each of them so much… Introducing Truly Genius Tuesday.
This Week’s Featured Genius: Albert
For our first Genius of Truly Genius Tuesday, we’re featuring the one who started it all – Albert! Albert was originally released in the fall of 2011 and got a facelift in 2015. We love this print. It’s a true classic, in our opinion… Uniquely created by our amazing team of graphic designers, it’s become the definition of the Genius Series.
There are a variety of ways to show off Albert, including the bumGenius cloth diapers (of course). There’s also the Flip Diaper cover, which happens to be a great solution for those who simply want to cover that disposable diaper with a little bit of personality. And then there’s our Genius Series merch, including our Genius tees, hoodies, pins and more! We’ve have some fun, new Albert gear in the works, but in the meantime, you can shop all the Genius Series Albert gear here.

Albert Einstein was a German-born theoretical physicist. He is best known for “the world’s most famous equation”, mass–energy equivalence formula or E = mc2. He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics “for his services to theoretical physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect”. The latter was pivotal in establishing quantum theory. He was truly a man who never stopped asking questions, who devoted his life to searching answers of the universe.
“Nothing truly valuable arises from ambition or from a mere sense of duty; it stems rather from love and devotion towards men and towards objective things.” {Albert Einstein, the Human Side: New Glimpses from His Archives}

At 6 months, he knew how to climb our stairs, and before 7 months, he could go down, as well. At 9 months, he figured out how to push small chairs to various places around the house to gain access to certain places or things, such as the window, (he likes to watch through the windows). Recently, at 10 1/2 months, he figured out how to open the back door.
My little bun in the oven is a genius because of how active & feisty he is already! {due in march!} Thank you so much for the chance to win this amazing set! Our whole stash is bumgenuis!
My little one is a genius because shes only 2 and already doing what her big 5 year old brother is doing.
My little man is a genius! This little guy’s smile will light up a room! I love the Genius series BG has created! Would love to add one to my BG collection!
I love the genius series
My little girl is growing up so fast and learning new things every day–in my eyes she’s a “genius.”
My little guy is a genius to me because he has an amazing personality already at 3 months. He loves his thinking toys and music toys much more than some of the brighter colored cartoon like toys he has. He is alert and communicative and eager to learn. How could he not be my little genius!? Plus he has two very smart and creative parents to guide his learning! 😉
My little one is a “genius” at getting people to laugh and smile with him. He loves people.
My toddler is a genius because he gets sarcasm and joking so well. He also loves to talk about certain subjects in depth… even if he doesn’t understand everything you are saying. He’s so good with counting and numbers and shapes and loves to build with any kind of block.
The idea of honoring geniuses through your prints is pure GENIUS! Your excellent diaper designs made cloth diapering non-intimidating. Thank you for helping to make all 3 (+1 on the way) of my boys geniuses because they understand the value of saving money and our planet through cloth diapering.
My son is a genius because it takes him no time at all to pick up sign language, and now that he knows how much easier it is to communicate he’s made up a few of his own signs. Plus, it hasn’t stunted his verbal skills.
because they’re all so unique! its amazing how the same genetic material can make such individuals!
She knows how to make me laugh
Her self identity, individuality, humor, loving ways, caring towards others and enjoys life in the simplest ways
her humor, things she comes up with amazes us, keeps everyone smiling.
All we use are BumGenius and we love them! I actually have 2 Alberts already and hopefully they are helping my little 7 month old on his way to being his own mini Einstein 🙂
My little one is a genius because she knew just how to entertain with her new tea set from Cubbie Lee.
My LO ALWAYS knows how to get you to smile- she is going to be a “genius” at socializing!
My husband and I were both math teachers and love the Albert print. Definitely my favorite.
This is one of the few Bumgenius prints I don’t have yet! I have over 40 others but I’ll need this one to have a complete stash!!
she knows alot of songs by memory, even in languages she doesn’t speak!
My baby is genius because he is loves to have stories read to him. 🙂
My little one is a genius because she has a big sister – also a genius 😉 – that she learns so much from! She is just in beginning stages of talking but comprehends everything!
My little one is a genius because her mom is a genius 🙂
My baby is genius because build the most creative structures with her blocks!
My little one is a genius bc he is always finding ways to get to what he wants. lol
My little one is a genius because, as soon as she figures something out (touching her toes, rolling, lifting her head), she does it again and again and again. We are always amazed of how she becomes an expert over just few hours. She already knows that perseverance is the key to success. She’s genius!
My 4 year old is a genius, because who hasn’t met a 4 year old genius. The observations and comments these kids make are just priceless. It can get difficult when contemplating things like death, but it’s all part of the package.
Oh how I love this print
We love Albert!
My youngest is a genius because she has figured out ways to do things that her birth injury has prevented her from doing. She has come a long way and is kicking baby butt in her recovery from surgeries. I couldn’t be more proud. She’s truly amazing.
All 4 of my munchkins are geniuses because they are excited to explore and learn new things each day! It makes life fun and interesting!
My little ones are geniuses because they are so articulate. They speak so well, I often find myself laughing when I should be upset.
Thanks! Love,albert
My little one is a genius because he always knows how to lift my mood by giving me a big gap-toothed smile!
Our youngest has been nodding ‘yes’ in answer to questions, or abstaining when she disagrees for a VERY long time. She really seems to understand concepts, and did a lot sooner than her siblings. She also shakes her head when she’s not supposed to do something she knows is a no-no.
My baby is not born yet so she can’t be a genius, but I sure hope she takes after her dad’s smarts. 😀
We can’t get enough of these awesome prints!!
The genius print is so cute!
I think my grandson is a genius at 2 mos. old because he is always keenly watching, listening, & trying to interact with everything around him already!
We call my youngest one Einstein because his Afro of curls. ?
being curious and adventurous
My little one is genius because she understands empathy at such a young age.
Great giveaway! Original Albert is my favorite print. Flips are my favorite covers. They fit my kids the best and are the cutest, in my opinion. 🙂
My child is a genius in my eyes because she is so smart she is two years old and knows alot
My little one is so smart with blocks. He loves quiet toys vs loud noisy ones. He can build, move, stack all day! Albert is our favorite thank you for the giveaway!
My daughter LOVES math and science! My husband and I both have degrees in science/math based subjects, so we started our daughter early on learning numbers and shapes. She was a micropreemie, born at 26 weeks, so we have taken things one step at a time. She was looking at engineering plans before she was a year old! She is now 2.5 years old and knows her numbers up to 10, a variety of shapes (including hexagons and octagons), and letters! To me, that is genius! She has worked so hard at trying to catch up physically, but her brain is sharp and I am so proud of her and her love of learning!
My LO is a genius because he knows exactly how to win over anyone’s heart with the most adorable smile!
Watching the wheels turn in my toddler’s head and seeing his solutions to everything that comes his way is what makes my little guy a genius.
You guys are the greatest! I love the new Albert diaper but I don’t own it yet. Only the original. Austen is my favorite genius in the series. I have a love for reading and Jane’s books are classics. In fact if I had to name a favorite it would definitely have to be Pride and Prejudice. Thanks for the opportunity CB!
Love Albert!
Such a great design I would love to win
My 4 month old is a genius because he rolls all over, and loves playing with his 2 big brothers. ?❤
My little guy is a “Genius” because he LOVES his cloth diapers! He likes to “help” stuff and put them away, and he loves all the bright colors and prints! Who knew someone so small would know what’s best for the planet?! 😉
Vivian skipped baby food and went right to what we were eating. At 4 months she grabbed her brothers pb&j. Scared me to death but she was fine!
My little guy isn’t here yet, but believing your kid is a genius and encouraging them to be hard workers is what makes little geniuses. I know he will be amazing no matter what.
My 5yo is a LEGO “master builder” and my 2yo is great at speaking!
My littlest one is a genius because she has the gift of gab! My older two were speech delayed by the time they were three so this is a whole new world for me to have my almost one year old say “ball” “mama” “dada” “bye” “cat” “this” “snack”. She’s constantly amazing us!
My toddler says the most amazing things. We have no idea where she gets it!
I think my little one is a genius because of how stubborn and bossy she is! I can fully picture her running her own business or being/doing whatever she wants when she grows up!
