The Healing Powers of Drippy Ducks

It’s officially summer!  Let the outdoor-free from school-fun begin!  Of course, with all of that fun will come bumps, scrapes and bruises, especially for the little kidos in your life and Drippy Ducks are great way to make things all better.  My mom used to make these for my brother and I when we were little and I can attest to the fact that they definitely help make booboos better…faster.  Just insert an ice cube into the Drippy Duck’s bill and hold on the injury.

Edit: My mom just found the Drippy Duck rhyme that she made up when my brother and I were little, scroll all the way down to see it!

In addition to these fun little duckies, check out my column on hellogiggles.com.  This week I’m talking about three great herbal remedies for healing those minor summertime booboos.

I hope your summer is off to a great start!  I’d love to see pictures and hear your stories if you give this fun crafty project a try!
