Problem: Your child has a bruise, but a kiss on his boo-boo isn’t enough to ease the pain. You stuff a fistful of ice into a plastic baggie, but within a few minutes, the ice melts and drips all over the place, leaving you with a mess to clean up. ?? Solution: Tend to your child with Gal-Pal Retro Ice Bags ($16, gal-pal.com). Soft on the skin, these rubberized fabric bags are latex-free and hold about 16 oz. of ice and water to alleviate your child’s bruises, headaches, muscle aches – or hot water for their stomach and joint pains (and yours as well). Each of the ice bags feature cute and funky designs and watertight caps. Say good-bye to leaky plastic baggies for good.
