SHELTON, Conn., July 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/-- Wet Ones®, America's #1 Hand Wipe**, knows that some of the messier moments in life create the best memories, especially when it comes to being in the kitchen with your kids.  However, according to a study conducted by Wet Ones® Hand Wipes, 91% of moms say they have stopped their child from participating in an activity because it was too messy*.  To help parents embrace the mess this back-to-school season, the brand has partnered with Siri Daly to bring the fun back into the kitchen because Wet Ones® hand wipes are there to help clean up hands before and after the mess!

"As a mother and food blogger, I love cooking with my children, but sometimes I feel like I miss out on great moments with them because I'm so concerned with cleaning as I go," says Siri Daly. "Even getting my kids to wash their hands after making a mess is a struggle! Wet Ones® Antibacterial Hand Wipes are a convenient 2-in-1 way to wipe away dirt and messes when soap and water aren't readily available."

"We want to encourage parents to embrace family memories by letting their little ones help make messy PB&Js for their lunchbox and sloppy joes for family dinners - because with Wet Ones® hand wipes you're always covered!"
