Look after your little one’s stuffy nose with Olbas for Children

The warmer months are almost upon us again and with it the dreaded summer cold and hayfever. Protecting our families against colds, flu and hayfever are at the front of every mother’s mind. Noses large and small suffer congestion, sneezes and snuffles, and get rubbed raw by hankies and tissues. Even the littlest of sniffles can mean sleepless nights for the whole family – which is no fun for anyone!
Although coughs, colds and hayfever are mostly unavoidable, there are some things that every parent can do to help relieve the symptoms.
The Olbas family of products are always on hand to help noses big and small find relief, wherever and whenever they need it.
It can be tricky to know what to give your child depending on their age though, so Olbas has devised an easy chart for quick reference.
Olbas for Children is a trusted long lasting decongestant solution for stuffy little noses.
This gentle formulation contains a special mixture of pure plant oils with ingredients including clove oil, eucalyptus, juniperberry and cajuput.
Especially formulated for children or infants over three months, Olbas for Children offers a day or night solution to relieve little noses. Just pop a few drops on a hanky, place it out of their reach in their bedroom and let the vapours work to softly relieve congestion and restore easy breathing … the result? Peaceful nights and sweet dreams all round!
A gentle decongestant like Olbas for Children helps to relieve congestion and catarrh to make breathing easier and so aid restful sleep.
Hilary Lynn, spokesperson for Olbas says, “Children are prone to colds and hayfever during the summer time, so it is important to protect them the best way possible. Olbas for Children can be part of your essential summer kit and offers a natural solution for your child. Just a few drops on a tissue along with plenty of rest and fluids will help relieve your child’s symptoms. This will assist restful sleep both for your child and yourself!”

Six steps to looking after your little ones:
1. From 2 years of age teach little ones to blow their nose. A good way to do this is to explain that “it’s like smelling but backwards.”
2. Put a few drops of Olbas for Children on a cloth/hanky near their cot or bed (but out of reach)
3. Keep your child's bedroom warm, but well ventilated
4. Make sure they drink plenty of fluids. Warm drinks can be particularly soothing but avoid those with a high sugar content
5. Remember the old saying ‘you are what you eat’? It’s true! Make sure your kids are eating healthy and nutritious food to help their immune system fight off the bugs
6. Encourage as much rest as possible (it takes energy to fight an infection)
