items These are my must have items for my kids whenever they’re sick. I’ve tried so many products over the years, these are my favorites.
I especially like to give these to my kids when they wake up or before they go to bed to help coat their dried out throats during/after sleep
The Eez Co. Lolleez Organic Throat Soothing Pops - Watermelon, Strawberry & Orange Mango - 15ct
I keep one of these in my diaper bag and one in the car as well. You never know when a kid will get so or just be carsick 🥲
FifthPulse Disposable Lavender Emesis Bags, Pack of 10 Barf Bags for Kids & Adults, Vomit Bags for Traveling, Great for Motion Sickness & Nausea
Heads up if you have a baby they probably won’t like this but it definitely helps clear their little noses. Its kind of gross but we always do anything for our babies to feel better 💗

I have purchased this but I haven’t had to use it yet. This was highly recommended to me so decided to get it. It’s highly rated with high review counts everywhere I’ve seen it sold. 🤩
The Boogie Brand Micro-Mist Saline Inhaler - 1.7oz
I like to use these when the kids wake up with their little crunchy noses 😅 I also like to keep it in my diaper bag if we have to leave the house when they’re sick.
Boogie Wipes Saline Nose Wipes Unscented - 90ct
Make sure to speak to your pediatrician about exact dosing based on your toddlers size. I like to give this to my kids when they’re very boogery to help dry that all up before it develops into a bad cough.
Children's Zyrtec 24 Hour Allergy Relief Syrup - Bubble Gum - Cetirizine - 4 fl oz
I usually prefer to give my kids coconut water but for my 2 that don’t like it I give them this and it helps motivate them to drink more.

No artificial scents, no petroleum! Can be used on as young as 2 months old
Frida Baby No-Mess Vapor Rub for Chest, Neck, and Back - Soothing Eucalyptus & Lavender
I try to stay on top of my kids and their vitamins to help keep their health up in general. I am personally against any sort of gummy vitamins for kids because they seem to get cavities relatively easily 🥲
MaryRuth's Kids' Morning Multivitamin Liquid - 15.2oz
Of course always follow your pediatricians advice💗 I personally prefer this brand after the research I’ve done, this is also dye free and my kids prefer this flavor actually.

I like this one because you can view all of the stats for it on your phone. Very convenient if your child sleeps in a separate room
Safety 1st Smart Humidifier
Can’t have enough of these when the kids are sick 🥲
