Keep Your Little Ones In The Game & Safe All Summer

0 comments

Whether you’re a sports fanatic or not, odds are your kids will want to be a part of a team sooner or later—and when that time comes, you’ll need to be prepared for a lot of bumps and bruises. As the mother of aspiring soccer stars, I’ve seen my fair share of on and off-the-field injuries. Here’s what I learned:

In the beginning of my kids’ sports careers, even the smallest scratch got the 4-star recovery treatment. I pampered them with juice boxes, orange slices and even the occasional ice pack. But as my kids got older—and more competitive—they wanted to spend less time with Nurse Mom and more time charging the goal. That’s why I have just a few hard working items—I’m talking BAND-AID® Brand Adhesive Bandages and NEOSPORIN® Ointment.

For scrapes on knees, I use BAND-AID® Brand Adhesive Bandages plus Antibiotic. These are great because they have first-aid antibiotic ointment right on the pad. I get them in the extra-large size, so they fit perfectly on my kids’ knees. For painful cuts and scrapes on their faces that are too small to be covered up, I usually skip bandages and go straight for the NEOSPORIN® + PAIN RELIEF Ointment. Just a small dot of this ointment helps prevent infection and provides maximum strength pain relief for minor cuts and scrapes.

For everything in between, I stock an assortment of smaller-sized bandages with my kids’ favorite characters on them. Treating my daughter’s small cuts with BAND-AID® Brand Adhesive Bandage featuring Disney Princess always brings a smile to her face and helps her get back in the game fast. I keep a box of each of these products in my kids’ gym bags at all times, so I can quickly get them the care they need.

Word to the wise though, if you’re not careful, these boxes can run out quickly. That’s why I stock up at Walmart. They always have everything on my list at a great low price. If you visit see.walmart.com/healthy essentials today, you can score some great coupons and tips for using these products too! Once you’re on the page, you’ll also find great offers and care ideas for occasions, like men’s skin care or baby’s bath time.
