Ouchies: Making boo-boos more hip

I don’t know about you, but at our house, we go through bandages like nothing else. Everything from a skinned knee via a pavement spill to a teeny, tiny paper cut warrants a bandage.

Whenever my husband tries to talk one of the kids out of asking for a bandage, I laugh and remind him lovingly that a bandages aren’t just physical: They’re also emotional and psychological. Just putting a bandage around a pinky finger seems to shut off the faucet of tears. And our kids, no matter how big they grow, still want Mommy and Daddy to kiss their boo-boos and make them better. With Ouchies, you can do that in a hipper, cooler way!

Ouchies are designer bandages, colorful and bold. Now your child can not only make a cut or scrape disappear and heal faster, he or she can do it in style. Ouchies were created by a dad who was looking to make his children’s bandages a little more fun and funky. As he says, “Down with beige bandages, baby!”

There’s something for every kids’ style and personality:
For the boys…
4Boys_Heart
For the creative artist…
MakeUrOwn
For the fun-loving and nostalgic type…
4Every

Our kids adore Ouchies. It just so happened that the flu shots we all received last week warranted “cooler” bandages. Moments after returning home, Ouchies came to the rescue!

Boo-Boo

Ouchies come in metal tins, which I love because it’s so retro and old-school. Each tin contains 20 adhesive bandages. You can order Ouchies from their online retail site for $5.00 a box, or check to see where they’re sold locally at stores near you.

Win it! Thanks to the people at Ouchies, one of you will win two tins of your choice of Ouchies adhesive bandages!
