by

vaporubDid 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
  • L’Occitane Shea La Vie Gift Set and Hand Cream
  • Sephora Professional Manicure/Pedicure Nail Kit
  • Essie Spa Pedicure Mini Kit

    Its lots of liquids for my family…depending on the season it can range from soup to jello. Plenty of tea…hot or cold. And plenty of TLC and a blankie if they need it.

    Whenever I feel sick with a bad cold or flu, I love chicken noodle soup. I try to get plenty of rest, drink lots of liquids, and rub Vicks VapoRub on my chest. Then I want to be left completely alone! Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this giveaway!

    When my kids are sick, they get to nap on the couch. They can eat Jello and drink hot apple juice and sweet tea.

    We like lots of liquids especially chicken soup. Milk is out as it seems to add to the congestion.

    We make a special “bed” for our kids on the couch for resting during the day. They get to pick the movies while I get them to drink as much liquic from a water bottle as possible!
