This seems to work for me (I show this to my parents)...

I check for wetness of a disposable diaper by pinching a small amount (from
the outside of the diaper) between my fingers.  A "wet diaper" feels more
squishy (slippery texture) than a "dry diaper."  This also enables one to get
to the "wetness" that has gone deep into the diaper.
