Boo Boos Happen First Aid Kit

Yes – because those boo boos DO happen! The Boo Boos Happen First Aid Kit is a must-have for every family and is perfect for tucking underneath a kitchen sink, in a diaper bag, or in the car when you are on-the-go! This zippered recyclable bag includes a 1.5 tube of Topricin Junior and 20 standard size ‘Ouchies’ self adhesive bandages in five bold colors (pastel purple, blue, yellow, green, pink) that kids can decorate themselves with three markers (dark blue, red and purple), which are also included. The pain will be long forgotten as they color and create their own unique bandage!

Topricin Junior is a pediatrician-recommended medicated cream specially formulated for children that targets pain as it rapidly goes to work helping the body to heal the damage that’s causing the pain. It works naturally – utilizing Echinacea, Arnica, and graphites as the key ingredients instead of harsh chemicals.

For moms with toddlers, packing a diaper bag is an entirely different experience! As your little ones grow up, their needs will change and what you can take along with you to play dates, outings to the park, or just everyday trips to the store is going to be much less than what you packed in their infancy. “Mom” has chosen her top finds for updating AND downsizing the diaper bag contents – including the diaper bag itself! So stow away that oversized piece of luggage you call a bag, tuck the burp cloths in a drawer, and place the breastfeeding cover on a shelf for the next baby. Let’s streamline!
