Babies and kids Eczema remedies

Eczema is a skin condition but not contagious. Natural remedies i tried and some of them that worked for me::
1) Be very consistent in following these remedies every single day until the child gets 6yr old.
2) Pour little oil into the bucket of water & mix it well with a mug && Use that water to bath the babies / kids
3) Take some Olive oil ( that we buy to cook everyday ) + Turmeric powder and mix well and apply on babies / kids and leave it like that for about 20 - 30 min and then give them bath.
4) After applying some soap then at the end apply oats powder ( grinded oats ) and rinse it.
5) apply aquaphor cream and Vaseline and put wet clothes( In hot water wet them and squeeze water and put it on babies it will really help.

Remedy for Ear pain

There was an incident :: One day night around 2am my daughter started complaining about ear pain and i remember my friend told me a while ago to
pour some dry rice into kids Socks and microwave it for few seconds until it is warm to the touch then after we check the temperature its advisable to keep it at the ear area for few minutes and it will give relief to that moment till we get Doc appointment that day.

My travel experience with my daughter

I traveled when daughter was around 18 months and i packed
1) Crayons, Coloring activity books
2) DVD player and some Kids rhymes to entertain her
3) Soft toys
4) some finger foods she was interested in & some home made food
5) Tylenol In case of  any emergency
But some reason she got scared after we stepped into the flight (though it was her second time travelling in flight but first time international journey) and started crying so hard for about 10 hours and people couldn't bear the noise and complained and no-matter how many things i tried was really of no use.
After the trip - my friend suggested me :: We have to keep Benadryl  medicine that will make the kids drowsy and its very safe to use during flight journeys. Then i did the same while coming back to US and it really worked. Now in my list 6) Benadryl is added.

Clean Kitchen

It was always a mess no matter how much work i used to do around the kitchen and it took a little while for me to realize the reason why the kitchen is going messy all the time !!!!!.
1) Having lots of Pots and Pans ( need a room for so many extra items and they all clutter on the islands all the time )
2) Not cleaning while cooking Its very Important Cleaning simultaneously with cooking
            1) keep a Bag/ News paper under the chop board to grab all the trash to dump all at-once
             2) Try to Use One Spoon when cooking 2 dishes at a time until & unless if you are cooking somethiing Bitter like Bitter guard Vegetable or any baby food preparation other wise its good to use ONLY ONE Spoon to mix while cooking more than 2 dishes at a time.
           3) As soon as you finish cooking Transfer them to serving bowls which has proper lids.
           4) Wipe stove counters, stove area, Rinse the Utensils, Load the dishwasher it saves lot of time and water bill too.
            5) Having early dinners will help tremendously to keep neat, clean kitchen. I read it from Good house keeping Magazine and its really a magic trick. In-fact  Good House keeping magazine is really very helpful for so much good information.
 
3) I keep a Spray bottle( It contains little dish soap+ water) & also to squeeze out any excess water from the Island (Specially close to Sink area) handy all the time in-order to spray and wipe the counters every time i clear counter tops :: It saves tons of our time believe me:  ( You can buy these from Dollar store) For most of the granites its not good to use Clorox wipes nor Vinegar.
Also i keep Scraper to scrap out any dry stuff from the islands while im in the process of cleaning.
Also the Scraper is very helpful to scrape out the stuff from the utensils while washing them.

4) Coming to Cupboards, drawers, and Fridge,/ any steel appliances i use wipes steel wipes or wood wipes they are very helpful for regular cleaning and for any oil spills too. and they are available in any grocery store cleaning supplies area. If i ran out of those wipes then i wet microfiber cloth and i squeeze out all the water very well and ill clean cupboards, drawers stuff with that microfiber cloth. Also behind the stove area.
