Identifying safe products for our family can be a hard decision, particularly when there are lots of products out there to select from shampoo, clothing, diapers, bottles, baby wipes to toys. What’s superior than a name you can believe when it comes to skin care? I have been using Kandoo products for a while. I like their kid-friendly personal care products featuring easy to use pumps, unique bottles and great scents that make it fun for kids to get clean. It’s also worth mentioning their mild formulas are made with natural ingredients to promote healthy skin and hair and are dermatologist tested, hypoallergenic and free of sulfates, parabens and phthalates.
March Break is fast approaching and it’s one of the busiest travel periods of the year. No one wants a cold or flu to put a damper on a family vacation. To help ensure your family members are feeling their best on your next family trip, Kandoo has developed travel tips:
• When soap and water are not available, keep travel-size moist towelettes or a hand sanitizer such as Kandoo Foaming Hand Sanitizer handy. Hand Sanitizers can kill 99.9% of germs in as little as 30 seconds. It fits perfectly into car cup holders and its easy-to-use pump is perfect for little hands.
• Kandoo Flushable Wipes – Roadside bathrooms can be less than desirable and are often not stocked regularly with supplies like toilet paper. Whether your child is toilet training or a potty veteran, these wipes can save the day. They clean 30 per cent better than toilet paper and are flushable and biodegradable. Available in various sizes, the 42-count travel size is compact and can easily be thrown into your purse or carry-on bag.
• Keep yourself and your kids well hydrated during your travels. The low humidity in airplanes and the stuffy air in cars and other enclosed spaces can leave you feeling tired and dehydrated. More hydration may mean more bathroom stops for the kids, but they’ll be happier and stay healthier while traveling.
• Manage your child’s travel environment as best you can.
o Bring their favorite pillow or blanket on the plane to avoid reusing an airline supplied one that may have been previously used.
o When traveling by auto, use the air-conditioning to filter out dust and other pollutants from the environment.
o Wipe down tray tables, eating spaces (such as the table at the airport food court), frequently touched surfaces like your hotel doorknob and TV remote, etc. with anti-bacterial wipes before using. These areas are hotbeds for germs so being aware and doing a little reconnaissance work up front is a good defensive play.
• Help keep your child’s immune system on the up and up. While it’s hard on vacation when schedules aren’t always regulated, getting plenty of sleep, eating a healthy breakfast, and keeping kiddos relatively active will help keep their little bodies fighting the good fight!
• Pack a travel-size first aid and anti-germ emergency kit.
o Your first aid kit might include the ever-necessary bandages, bee sting relief, hydrocortisone cream, acetaminophen, sunblock, etc.
o Your anti-germ kit might include Kandoo Foaming Hand Sanitizer, saline nasal spray Boogie Mist (for keeping allergens and impurities out of the nose) and Boogie Wipes moist towelettes which are kid-friendly made with saline solution and available in grape, fresh and unscented. Boogie Wipes are made for wiping running nose, but can also be utilized to wipe down and sanitize surfaces.
