instead of cough drops, my toddler uses these

school is in session which means a bunch of illnesses are spreading around. my son has been sick on and off since school started and one of his biggest complaints has been that his throat hurts. he’s tested negative for strep, so it’s something he just has to ride out.

i don’t want to give my three year old cough drops because that feels like a choking hazard. and i don’t know that he would even LIKE the flavor of most cough drops

so instead we use lolleez! they’re throat soothing lollipops with flavors that kids love. my sons favorite is the strawberry, but there are tons to choose from.

bonus: they’re clean label certified!

i found these at our local target, but you can also buy online on their website

... Read moreAs the cold season approaches, parents often seek alternatives to traditional cough drops for their children. Many cough drops pose choking hazards, especially for toddlers and young kids. Lolleez lollipops provide a safer solution, being flat-shaped and available in various kid-friendly flavors like strawberry and watermelon. Their clean label certification adds to their appeal, ensuring parents can trust what their children consume. These lollipops contain pectin, an organic ingredient that helps soothe sore throats effectively. Unlike conventional cough remedies, Lolleez are enjoyable for children, combining treatment with a treat. Accessible via popular retailers like Target or their official website, they have become a go-to choice for parents aiming to keep their kids comfortable during cold and flu seasons. By selecting Lolleez over traditional cough drops, parents can prioritize safety without sacrificing relief.
