Let me start by saying, I'm not a perfect mom! But being hands on for a good 24 plus months, I can say, I do have some tricks under my sleeves! All the drawing, the book-reading, the acting, I am definitely a teacher/actress/artist for life!
As you all know, my title is inspired by "Life Hacks" seen on Facebook shared posts! This is my personal "mommy hacks" list and I can add more if you are interested! I will try to put up as interesting products as possible for "ahem" cool mommies out there!
My son turned 2 last April 16th! Yes, TWO! Eeeekkkk!!!! I know what I'm hearing now: "Terrible Two!" Thankfully, he may be at his most active, noisy, running-here and there stage but I don't call him terrible! NOT YET! :P But for the past few weeks, he feel or hit himself a couple of times so I'm used to seeing some bruises and bumps on his adorable face and arm! *insert sad face* Fellow mommies would understand how it literally crushes our hearts to see our kiddos getting hurt! So I always have this first-aid kit with me! Everybody should know that I use
Lucas Papaw a lot! They are perfect for insect bites. But there are some instances wherein Lucas Papaw is not enough so I have these....

Arnica Bruise-Stick Php470.00
Bruise-Stick™
is an all-natural ointment stick formulated to reduce bruising and
swelling associated with injury or medical procedures.
It looks like a glue-stick so it's easy to use especially on kids! Kyle Nash had a huge bruise on his forehead when he fell face flat on the floor! He was such a brave boy and didn't cry much but the huge bump said it all! Whenever he goes to sleep, I would rub Bruise-Stick on his bruise and massage it gently. So far, the swelling didn't get worst, instead, it died down in less than a week! I did patch test first before applying all over the bruise, I applied a small amount at the back of his ear and leave it for a couple of hours, I didn't see any negative reactions so I went for it.
