Help Little Ones Sleep Easier with the New Vicks Sweet Dreams Humidifier #GIVEAWAY





Oh the irony in me writing this post is that my 5 year old is tossing and turning beside me & our ten year old just went back to bed, all because their noses are red, stuffy and they are both in the middle of battling relentless colds. I guess I shouldn't be surprised with the abnormal and inconsistent weather we've been having, one minutes the temperatures are in the mid 60's and then there are mornings when it's 45 degrees when they walk out the door. I never know how to dress them without them complaining that they have on too many layers or that it's too windy and cold and wanted a hat. So it was only a  matter of time before we'd have to whip out the humidifiers and signal the troops {thermometers, tissues, cold medicines and more} to tackle cold and flu season.




Fortunately for me, I had attended a press preview last month for the New Vicks Sweet Dreams Cool Mist  Humidifier and their line of products that help prep for those extra germy days we wish we could avoid. If you have little ones they'll love being able to rest under this adorable humidifier's projections of zoo animals, sea creatures and constellations that will distract them from the uncomfortable symptoms of being sick & take them quietly into dreamland. My 5 year loves to turn on nightlights at bedtime so this is perfect because it kills two birds with one stone.

In addition to the dream inspired projections, the filter-free humidifier quietly releases cool mist into the air which provides much needed comfort and relief when the kiddies are suffering from nasal and chest congestion. And when needed you can place two Vicks scent pads for long lasting and soothing menthol vapors, which I personally love love the smell of. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends using s cool mist humidifier throughout the winter months to help relieve congestion and coughs for children.

KEY FEATURES:

  • Filter free and ultra quiet operation.
  • Humidity control
  • Up to 24 hour operation using a 1 gallon tank.
  • Independently controlled projector with choice of 3 themes.
  • Auto shut off when empty
  • Best used in medium sized rooms


For $59.99 you can purchase this humidifier in Blue or Pink at Babies R 'Us, Amazon, Meijer and Drugstore.com




A fun moment during the event was that we had the chance to meet and interact with some really cool animals from chameleons and chinchillas to frogs that reminded us of the animal friends projected on the ceiling. I'm obsessed with frogs and couldn't stop cheeseball smiling while holding a pair of cute and slimy ones who seemed to be exploring me as they climbed up on my arm and leaped up onto my shoulder.




An absolute must during this time of year is to have a reliable and accurate thermometer at home to determine the severity of a change in temperature. The new Vicks Smart Temp Thermometer will blow your mind and help make life so much easier. I for one know i've had instances where i'd be at work and the hubby or my parents had to stay home with our boys and we'd have inaccurate accounts for temperatures when it was time to bring the kids into the pediatrician. This new thermometer uses Bluetooth technology and a free companion app to not only take temperatures but stores a record of temperatures for every family member. No more going to the doctor and being unprepared!




Parents can set up individualized profiles for each family member and store their history on their iOS or Android device. You can even export the readings from the app via email to share the information easily with doctors, school nurses and other caregivers. Another great feature is that you can set reminders for when to retake temperatures or to give medicine.

KEY FEATURES: 
  • Wireless temperature readings to the free companion app anywhere using Bluetooth technology
  • Track full temperature history stored by individual profiles for each family member.
  • Flexible tip for comfortable oral, rectal or underarm use.
  • Fever InSight changes the phone screen color based on the temperature range.
  • Export temperature readings and symptoms via email
  • Set temperature and medicine 
For $24.99 you can purchase this iOS and Android compatible thermometer at Babies R Us, Rite Aid, CVS Baby Aisle, Meijer, H-E-B, Amazon and Drugstore.com
