Cool Gel N Cap Warm/Cold Compress


Where was this when my older children were growing up. So much more useful then the booboo bunny which is also very cute but just does not cover as big an area as the Cool Gel N Cap. I wanted to see what size heads this would fit and I am glad to report it fits although a bit big from my youngest grand daughter who is one all the way up to my twelve year old although she would not let me take a picture of her with it on. 

Below you can see a picture of my 7 year old with it on and there was still lots of room left. I like that this is soft, can be used with the cold packs either on the head or held in a different area of the body. I like the strap that keeps the cap on and that you can change where you want the cool packs so that it will be able to rest on the sore spot. 

If you have young children with head or ear aches this is what you need. The paks are freezer and microwave safe so you can always keep one in the freezer and one at room temperature ready to heat up in a moments notice, to help you ease your children's pain. 

Being a mom of 6 children and running a child care for years this would have been a great item to have when we stated out being parents over 24 years ago. No one wants to see their child in pain. We all want to make them better right away. This is a great way to make them feel better while having your arms free for hugs and snuggling while the Cool Gel N Cap does all of the pain relieving. 


You can purchase the Cool Gel N Cap here or on Amazon.


What Cool Gel N Caps has to say about their product.
The Only First Aid Cap For Kids  Naturally soothe your kids age 1+ bumps, bruises, fever symptoms, migraines, headaches, ear infection symptoms, and more in a fun, easy, and effective way with the Cool Gel N Cap.
√  Why buy just ice packs, cold packs, or warm packs when you can have a Cool Gel N Cap?
√  The gel packs that come with your Cool Gel N Cap can be used ANYWHERE it hurts, inside or out of the cap, anywhere on the body.  AND… the non-toxic, latex free gel packs can be used cold AND warm, unlike conventional ice packs or cold packs.  This gives you the benefit of both a cold compress & warm compress for anywhere it hurts AND a cozy cap!
√  The Cool Gel N Cap is more comfortable on the head for your child than a traditional ice pack, cold pack, or especially a bag of frozen vegetables as the fabric is not only designed to be cozy, but also remove the sting of ice packs on the skin while letting the cool and warm therapy still get through.  The first aid cap is also designed to eliminate condensation associated with cold packs and ice packs.
  Reduces swelling and relieves pain from head to toe.
  Works perfectly as a cold compress or warm compress.  Freezer & Microwave safe.
  The gel packs are non toxic, water soluble, & latex free.  Also reusable!
√  Machine washable:  The cozy first aid cap can be washed over and over.
√  The cold compress of the Cool Gel N Cap is great for little ones suffering from Hemophilia, as its cooling gel packs slow the flow of blood to the affected area.
√  The Cool Gel N Cap is also a cozy solution for kids suffering from Dravet Syndrome as it is a comfortable way to keep cool during a fever.

BBQ & Grilling Gloves For High Temperature Cooking





Some of my readers may remember I am not good with hot or sharp objects so good products to use them with is a must.

The last time I tried I had a fire that shot straight up. Luckily nothing caught on fire and no one got hurt.  I really love how these gloves fit not only me but also fit my husbands large hands. The other little extra I like is the the cotton straps to that are inside the gloves to hang them up with when not in use.

Ever since we have had an inside electric grill for safety reasons. With the Grill Master Gloves my husband might just let me grill on an outside grill again.

Now to just talk him into buying an outside grill again.

You can purchase the BBQ & Grilling Gloves For High Temperature Cooking on Amazon.

Martian Dice Review + Giveaway


As most of my readers know our family here in Marksville love to play with games. We don't get to play everyday but we do play a lot. We love to try out new games and this one is brand new game to us and one that took a while to get used to but which was very fun once you get the hang of it.

What I love is that it comes in a canister that holds all of the pieces and directions. Something you could take along to keep the kids busy, not in the car (you don't want to have dice everywhere), but once you get to where you are going this is a nice game to keep the little ones busy for a while.

Our family likes games that are different from other games and this is one that fits the bill.



You can purchase Martian Dice on Amazon.

Now for the Giveaway

One of our readers will win their very own Martian Dice Game. Open to USA residents only from 3/27/2015 - 4/01/2015 12:00AM EST. MarksvilleandMe is not responsible for prize distribution that will come from Tasty Minstrel Games. MarksvilleandMe wishes everyone who enters Good Luck!
