How to Stock Your Kitchen Shelves for Cold and Flu Season

November 13, 2018

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc., Kleenex, Lipton, and Theraflu. All opinions are mine alone. #FluSeasonHacks #CollectiveBias Ad Here I’m sharing Tips on How to Stock Your Kitchen Shelves for Cold and Flu Season and a FREE Printable Pack with 15 Sick Day Activities for Kids.

How to Stock Your Kitchen Shelves for Cold and Flu Season

I spend most of my time at home in the kitchen. I make all of our family meals at home, so when I’m not cooking, I’m often doing dishes, cleaning the stovetop, or putting away groceries. In addition, the dining area is right off the kitchen, and I sit in the dining room to blog, take photos, and run HappyandBlessedHome.com. When my kids are not in school, they’re at home with me, and the breakfast area in the kitchen is perfect for crafts and messy play. Everyone can relax, enjoy the views of our backyard, and make fun family memories together.

Keeping Cold and Flu Remedies on Hand in the Kitchen

So, it’s no surprise that I like to keep our cold and flu remedies in the kitchen. It’s where we eat, play, live and work during most of the waking hours of our day. And, since cold and flu season is upon us, I thought I’d share a few tips on How to Stock Your Kitchen Shelves for Cold and Flu Season and a FREE Printable Pack with 15 Sick Day Activities for Kids, in case your family is like our family… when one of us gets sick, the rest of the family is likely to follow.

Now if you’re like me, you like to keep fresh fruit and healthy veggies on hand. Plus, some tasty soup for whatever ails you and your family members. During our last bout with the cold and flu, I whipped up this hearty Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe – which tastes great with Lipton’s “Soothe Your Tummy” tea, an herbal infusion for those times your tummy feels less than its best.*

I also keep germs from spreading with Kleenex® Germ Removal Wet Wipes. The wipes come in a size perfect for your purse and they safely wipe away 99% of germs from your skin. For my two young boys, I’m thankful that the wipes have no harsh chemicals, plus they’re strong enough for kids’ hands while being soft enough for the face.

Don’t forget Theraflu Power Pods Nighttime Severe Cold which is powerful relief without a prescription. It temporarily relieves symptoms due to a cold like minor aches and pains, headache, nasal and sinus congestion, cough due to minor throat and bronchial irritation, minor sore throat pain and temporarily reduces fever.

How to Salvage your Sick Day

So, in our home, sick days often are accompanied by sick kiddos, and I couldn’t talk about stocking your kitchen for cold and flu season without offering readers of HappyandBlessedHome.com some educational tools to help out with sick days. So that’s why I created this, a FREE printable pack with 15 Sick Day Activities for Kids.

There are puzzles, mazes, matching, coloring and more. I even whipped up a board game “Candy-Land” style with dice and everything. Kids love to play games, and I love the fact that this printable pack reduces screen time and encourages creativity and problem-solving.

My kids love this printable pack. If your plans for the day get derailed by sickness, this is a fun way to overcome boredom without having to sit a kiddo in front of the TV all day. It also teaches empathy, fine motor skills, and even some early math. Take it from a Certified Teacher in Early Childhood Education, this printable pack is good stuff.
