Two weeks ago, Bunny girl was invited to classmate's birthday party. It was an all girls princess themed party that was beautifully coordinated and thrown by the little girl's Mommy. Bunny girl wore her Cinderella costume and as things would have it, that morning turned out to be cold and windy. (Of all days!) It didn't help that the girls played outdoors on the playground set, the rented giant wheel and the 'bouncy castle' minus jackets! Yes mothers, minus jackets!! Bunny girl's justification was that Disney Princesses just did not wear jackets with their pretty dresses (Duh Mama!!)

So there we had it....pretty princesses pranced around in the cold wind minus jackets and ended up with congested nasal passages and threatening coughs. Sigh!

Over the weekend Hubby and I made our 'congested Princess' sit in a steamed up bathroom, tried inhalations with Vicks, regular saline mist sprays...we tried everything! Bunny girl's nasal passages would clear up but then get blocked after a few minutes. We were fighting a losing battle especially since we'd decided we weren't going to make her go through medications just for a congestion.

Thankfully a God sent package arrived early on the following week. It was Crane USA to the rescue with their FDA registered Cool Mist Humidifier!

That night we filled our little Frog Humidifier's head with water


Added a pinch of salt (optional), flipped over the little froggy's head and placed it back on it's body.


Put his little eyes and nose back on and carried the Humidifier to the bedroom to put it to the test.


Bunny girl fell asleep with a struggle as she hates sleeping with a congested nose and because I tell her to sleep with her mouth open to aid with the breathing. In less than half an hour when I checked on her, she was asleep with a gutteral snoring noise but with her mouth closed.....the Humidifier worked!!

Crane's Cool Mist Humidifier's is awesome because it comes complete with

• A one gallon water tank that runs for upto 11hours
• An auto off function when the tank is empty
• A removable water tank that fits under most bathroom sinks (and unlike other Humidifiers this is easy to carry around. A big plus especially since I'm careful carrying heavy things since I'm in my second trimester now.)
• A 2.1 moisture gallon output per day and
  
• A low power consumption

They even come disguised as all these cute little animals!! (Makes such a difference even in your little one's approach to having it around.)

Hubby and I now bank everything on Crane's Cool Mist Humidifier because God only knows the various things we've tried to help Bunny girl breathe easier when congested. I know medicines are the easy way out but we firmly believe medicines should be given to a child (and even an adult) only when absolutely necessary else your body loses resistance to fight off illnesses.
