Have you ever noticed that sicknesses come in waves? One kiddo will get it and before it’s over every one is sick.
It’s not as bad when it’s just one child at a time, but when every one (including mom and dad) is sick at once, there are issues.
Dad some how still must go to work, moms are still taking care of the kids and somehow the kiddos always have all the energy humanly possible, just with sickness added on top.
It’s exhausting which is why it is so important to plan ahead. When the first symptoms start showing up in the first family member, it’s time to take action!
In fact, you can be prepared ahead of time now with this neat Cold & Flu Tracker. Just enter in your zip code and see the percentage of the population in your area that’s sick. Certainly helps you prepare for what is probably coming your way!
Movies are always good to have on hand during sick days. My kids won’t often sit through the same old movies but they are often up for a NEW DVD of shows they haven’t watched yet. Hitting up the local library for some new books and movies for everyone in the family is definitely at the top of our lists! Entertainment that doesn’t require moving around. That’s a must!
Along with anti bacterial wipes and buckets for the yuck, you also need to stock up on meds for the family.
Is any one else totally overwhelmed by the pharmacy isle? I always seem to run out to the store post bedtime when I’m groggy and already feeling sick myself and I try to figure out what to get. Thankfully, Chloraseptic® makes that easy on us! They have pretty much everything you need for cold and flu symptoms (and a $1 Chloraseptic® Coupon too!). They are the #1 pharmacist recommended sore throat relief brand (tied with lozenges for that top spot!).
Stock up for mom/dad and be sure to read the labels and make the right medicine choices for your kids based on their ages.
The thing is, now that we know this, we can stock up now, and not have to make that groggy trip to the pharmacy, trying to do last minute research on our phones and comparing prices. Just grab what you need next time you are in the grocery store (use the coupon from above too) and be ready for when the yuck hits.
