ICE PACKS

QUICK ICE PACK

To make a convenient ice pack to soothe minor scrapes, bumps and bruises, wet a small sponge and freeze it in a zip-lock type plastic sandwich bag. Novelty shaped sponges are especially popular. When your child is injured, hold the pack on the injury. As the sponge defrosts, it will conform to the body's shape. Use a new plastic bag each time you refreeze the sponge.
