Little kids seem to always have away of coming up with a "boo boo" that only they can see, and insist are really there, just so that they can have a bandage strategically placed on some random part of their body. Yet, when they have a REAL injury the sight of a first aid kit can send them running into hiding. So, here's a simple trick to get them calm and happy so you can dress their wound:
Let them pick the bandage.
Granted, many bandage makers have a specific design for each type of bandage, but it'll put a smile on your tot's face knowing he or she got to pick it out....even if the finger bandage ends up on the face. And if one bandage makes them smile, imagine what two will make them do.
