First-Aid Kit Essentials
Having the items you need on hand can make a big difference when an accident or illness occurs. Keep these supplies in a locked storage out of your child’s reach.
A thermometer, tweezers for removing splinters, sharp scissors for cutting bandages, a cup or spoon or oral syringe for liquid medicine, a heating pad, small beam flashlight for checking throats, eyes and ears, nasal bulb, rubbing alcohol for sterilizing, petroleium jelly, pair of disposable gloves, infant strength acetaminophen, benadry, pedialyte, syrup of ipecac, antibacterial cream, calamine lotion, sunscreen, bandages and wipes.
Make sure that anyone who’s watching your child knows where to find these materials and how to use them.
