Vicks Behind the Ear Thermometer Event with Dr. Meg Meeker and the Boston Parent Bloggers

Nearly 30 members of the Boston Parent Bloggers joined other local bloggers for a Winter Warm Up event hosted by the makers of the new Vicks Behind the Ear thermometer.

The event was held at Finale Desserterie and Bakery where guests were treated to a delicious spread of tasty treats.

Dr. Meg Meeker, a fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics and author of “The 10 Habits of Happy Moms,” gave a presentation that touched on tips on dealing with fevers in children and keeping a healthy household.

She also stressed the importance that mothers should not parent out of fear, instead they should trust their gut when it comes to the health of their children.

The new Vicks Behind the Ear thermometer is a great way to quickly get an accurate reading for the whole family especially the sleeping baby and the wiggly toddler.

In addition to thermometers, the same manufacturer has other complementary products to help keep the family and the house healthy over the winter season including a wide range of humidifiers, vaporizers, and monitors. Each attendee was sent home with a bag of products to sample.
