Essentials for Everyone
We have quite a few of these. They’re so soft and cozy. We use them when not sick too.
The Big One® Oversized Supersoft Plush Throw Blanket
Definitely helps us all with breathing
Humidifier
We got this when my child was small. It is accurate, has held up, and works great. We liked it so much we bought two.
Braun ThermoScan 5 Ear Thermometer ExacTemp
Always good to have some extra on hand
Braun ThermoScan Disposable Lens Filters
Definitely a good idea to have these on hand. Helps clean up the germs and makes the house smell fresh. Who wants to risk getting the crud again?
Clorox Bleach Free Disinfecting Wipes Value Pack - 105ct/3pk
So much softer and gentler on noses.
Puffs Plus Lotion Facial Tissue - 4pk/496ct
We like that this one is bigger and has auto shut off. Always nice for aches and pains.
Equate XL Electric Heating Pad, 6 Heat Settings with Auto Shut off, 12 x 24 in
These can be for anyone. So soft and smell good. Plus the weight and heat can bring comfort.
Warmies®, the Original Heatable Weighted Stuffed Animal
They have syrups for a wide variety of ages. We used the 2-6 year old ones for my son. They seemed to help him. We’ve used it multiple times.
Cough Syrups for Children, Babies and Adults | Zarbee's®
Helps clear noses from young to old. A safe, natural way to do it.
Saline Nasal Sprays
Kid Specific Items
This is nice to throw in the bath when my child is stuffed up, not feeling good. It also benefits me when I sit in there with my child because it helps my nose too.
Kids Stuffy Nose & Cough Essential Oil Vapor Bath
So great to have on hand for when baby isn’t feeling well. Nice you can use the syringe when they’re bigger too.
MediFrida the ACCU-DOSE PACIFIER – Frida | The fuss stops here.
These come in fresh scent and unscented. I use these with my child a lot. It definitely gets his nose cleaner in a gentler way.
Boogie Wipes
We used this for my son. It eased my mind about him staying hydrated. It also had better ingredients than Pedialyte in my opinion.
KinderLyte® Electrolyte Solution
I believe these were the ones my nephew liked. It definitely seemed to help soothe his throat.
