Question

Hello, A two-year-old girl who listens to sacred songs or learns blessings from a tape where God's name is mentioned, and the girl has a dirty diaper that smells bad. Is it permissible to allow her to remain in such a state while the tape recites the blessings (for her personal learning)? Or should she not be allowed at all?

Answer

Hello 

It is permissible to allow her to listen as she wishes. 

Source

Even if the listening is considered 'spiya biyadim', it is permitted in a rabbinic prohibition for the needs of the child.

Logic suggests that it is not defined as 'spiya' at all.
