Did you know that kids can catch six to ten colds year-round?
I’ve never kept track, but that sounds about right. I don’t think there was a single week this past winter when at least one of the kids was feeling under the weather.
Vicks would like to provide one very lucky Deal Seeking Mom reader with a little extra comfort for both mom and child. They’ve put together a “Vicks VapoRub Comfort Care” gift basket valued at $450 filled with Vicks VapoRub along with some other favorite items to make children more comfortable. The basket includes a plush Little Giraffe blanket, classic children’s books and lullaby CDs. And don’t think they forgot about Mom, especially with Mother’s Day a few days away! They’re also including a 100% cashmere wrap, some favorite soothing skincare items from L’Occitane and a manicure/pedicure kit.
For child:
- Vicks VapoRub
- Chenille Blanket
- Soothing lullaby music
- Assortment of children’s books: Corduroy, Harold and the Purple Crayon, The Giving Tree, The Little Prince
For mom:
- Nordstrom Cashmere Sweater Knit Wrap

Whenever my 4yr old gets sick i know im right behind her…We go to the store and load up on lots of juice, water and crackers…head home where we cuddle on the couch with our fuzzy blankets, our disney movie collection and a big box of tissues. Nothing helps us get better then cuddling,laughing and napping on the couch!

When the flu strikes on of my loved ones I usually set up a “sick nest” for them on the couch with a cozy blanket, box of kleenex, drinks, snacks and a good movie. :o)
