New products for parenting and grandparenting

We’re celebrating grandparents all month – and these new products can help grandparents and parents as they care for kids. Make comfort and care part of your everyday life, especially as you spend hours in the stands for football or soccer this fall. 

Get ready for fall evenings at the ball field. The Puffer Hug 418 Scarf ($68.88 for adults, pufferhug.com/products/418-scarf) adds warmth and oversized fleece pockets (pockets!) in the form of a quilted scarf that morphs into a vest. Sized for adults, each scarf includes the signature Puffer Hug Heart Keychain to remind you (or the recipient, if you give it as a gift) that you are loved.

K’lani Hair Tie Bracelets ($19.99 per bundle, wearklani.com) keep this must-have mom accessory right on your wrist and they double as fashionable jewelry. Wear one or the whole bundle and you can be ready for whatever life with kids throws your way, even when there’s no time for hair care. 

The TheraICE Hot & Cold Therapy Head Cap ($34.95 https://theraice.com/collections/theraice-rx) is the reusable hot/cold pack that forms right where you need it for those headache days. The packs have a gel core and can be chilled in the freezer or heated in the microwave, depending on what you need most. It can be worn around your forehead or pulled down over your eyes for sweet headache relief. A sleep mask is also available ($29.95) for weighted comfort with cooling gel. 

Whether you are working out or lifting kids (and strollers and car seats), aches and pains can be a part of life for grandparents and parents. DNA Vibe’s (dnavibe.com) Jazz Band is a wearable light therapy device designed for recovery from sports or picking up that first grader who wants to be carried, and even for neck, shoulder and back tension from prolonged nursing positions. It is made in the USA and designed to reduce pain and stiffness, and accelerate and improve recovery. Choose from red light therapy, vibration and more, on one flexible silicone device. DNA Vibe products are certified for HSA and FSA reimbursement as well.

Woxer (Prices vary by product, woxer.com) active underwear brings moisture-wicking comfort for chasing kiddos, cheering on your favorite little sports star (or getting in your own workout), or even just hitting that endless car line every afternoon. It’s time to upgrade your underwear with soft, breathable fabric and a line that is sustainably and ethically produced. Comfort and practicality meet style with these. 

Nat Pat (starting at $19 per pack or save by building a bundle, natpat.com) offers the “keep in your bag all year” products for repelling mosquitoes or ticks – and even stopping the itch if a mosquito bite does happen. The repellent stickers go on clothes, not skin, plus they are nontoxic and made with essential oils, and they are designed to be safe and effective for children of all ages. Look for Buzz Patch Mosquito Repellent Stickers, Nat Pat Tick Repellent Stickers, and even Itch Relief Stickers that lift the skin and reduce itch without chemicals. 

Delta Children’s Full-Sized Aria Folding Crib ($229.99, deltachildren.com/products/aria-full-size-portable-folding-crib) is the perfect addition for grandparents and other caregivers who need a spot for baby to sleep but in a multi-function space. The Aria is GREENGUARD Gold and JPMA certified, meeting or exceeding government and ASTM safety standards. It uses a full-sized crib mattress and is adjustable as baby grows. 

The Shapermint Essentials Embrace Maternity Collection (shapermint.com/collections/maternity-collection) is all about moms and moms-to-be. These maternity essentials include the popular Shapermint high-waisted shaping leggings, plus more of Shapermint’s supportive shapewear favorites, now for maternity and postpartum in sizes from S-4XL.
