Flu Fighters Defend Against Sick Days

What’s the perfect environment for nasty germs to invade? A kid’s world! Young children are frequently exposed to harmful germs as they play in close quarters at day cares, schools and playgrounds. Fluctuations in temperature, dry indoor heating, lack of a good night’s sleep, and a poor diet can also contribute to childhood sick days. Believing that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,” The Giggle Guide^® prescribes these germ fighters to help families in the battle against the flu, while giving retailers a healthy sales boost: SquidSoap, Pipila, Crane and PureNight.

SquidSoap Keeps Hands Germ Free

SquidSoap cleverly teaches proper hand-washing technique to children. This unique liquid hand soap dispenser is specially designed to stamp children’s hands with a colored vegetable dye. It takes about 20 seconds of thorough hand-washing to remove the ink mark, ensuring that children leave the washroom with truly clean hands.

Because the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention reports that hand-washing is one of the most important things children can do to help stay healthy, it makes sense to offer kids a sensible way to wash properly, while ensuring that they enjoy it too. Kids are more likely to do a task if it is F-U-N! SquidSoap cleans up where other soaps barely lather by turning hand-washing into a fun challenge with visible success. SquidSoap by Airborne comes with a funky orange, purple, or green squid on top, playfully inviting kids to wash often.

The compact, attractively colored, battery-powered portable sterilizer sanitizes in less than 6 minutes.

Crane-USA is a Breath of Fresh Air

Winter heating methods keep families cozy and warm, but also cause drying and cracking of mucous membranes. This leads to irritation and weakens the barriers that protect people from illness, allowing germs and viruses to invade. That’s why Crane makes it their business to provide families with humidifiers and air purifiers that go beyond the call of duty.

Crane’s FDA-approved, whisper-quiet Cool Mist Humidifiers provide soothing moisture to help prevent sinus irritation, dry coughs, and nose bleeds. Cool mist humidifiers are highly recommended as a non-medicated alternative to over-the-counter children’s cold and cough medicines. They provide comfort, encouraging the deep sleep that enables immune systems to work properly. Cool Mist Humidifiers are available in 10 cool animal shapes, making them kid-friendly and a fun accent to room décor.

Crane’s AHAM-certified, Five-Level Filtration Air Purifier is available in both penguin and shark styles and helps remove up to 99.97% of airborne allergens, bacteria, viruses and germs from the air, ensuring that the surrounding air is fresh, clean and pure. Its compact design works with an easy-to-change photo catalyst HEPA filter in conjunction with an internal UV light and 3-speed quiet-operation.
