Our Favorite Wellness Products for the Family
Bumps, bruises, and sniffles are some of the guarantees that come along with parenthood. Having a well stocked medicine cabinet can help your family get and stay healthy, and save unnecessary trips to the store with a child who isn't feeling his best.
Parents, what health and wellness products do you like to keep on hand for when someone needs some TLC? Add your favorite to the list!
Always use caution when using medications or essential oils with kids and consult your doctor to be sure that any new treatment is safe for your child.

Vicks Advanced Waterless Vaporizer
Kristy Pepping said: For little kids who can't take a lot of medicine, these are great to plug into their room. They come with cartridges that let off Vicks vapor and help clear their stuffy heads so they can sleep better.

Boiron ColdCalm Baby
Hannah Scott said: I'm always wary of medicine for the littlest members of my family (and the big members too, now that I think about it) so a homeopathic remedy that WORKS is always welcome! Boiron's ColdCalm ticks all the boxes as a safe and effective cold remedy. We love the adult version too!
