May 28, 2009 - Somebody's Got the Sniffles
 
 

The sniffles of spring are here. Between allergies and just regular old grubby kid germs from school, the boogies and coughs are a regular night time occurrence in our house.

Traditional children's medicine and remedies can really freak a mama out. One thing that I don't like to use on the kids when they are having trouble breathing because of a cold or allergies at night is a certain chest rub that we all grew up with. The kids don't really like the smell and certain reports have come back recently saying that it is harmful mainly because of the menthol ingredient. So how about using some nice eucalyptus lemon and rosemary rub? Sounds good to me and the kids don't mind it one bit! The real deal? It works.

Dimpleskins is a great company that I remember writing about a very long time ago when we were both just getting started. Owner Jen Casey has brought her company a long way and developed really great all natural products for kids. 100% natural to be exact. From zinc-free Bum Bum Balm, to Boo Boo Goo! Avocado Soap, to a remedy for cradle cap. She has everything that you need to stock up for baby, or gift a new mom. Everyone sleeps better at night with the comfort of knowing exactly what is going on their baby's skin, and where it came from.
