Dcb2 has been sneezing continuously this morning. Just spraying all over! Would you ask for pick-up for something like this? I keep thinking germs, germs, germs. His sister is coughing all over. Any thoughts?

Are they miserable?

Are they able to participate in daily activities?

If not I'd send them on....

I wonder if wearing a mask would help?

I have a couple preschoolers that have sneezing fits periodically. No clue why but their mom always sends surgical type masks with them when they have a particularly "sneezy" day.

They aren't always great at covering so it works well.

One thinks he is Darth Vader anyways so the mask only helps "support" this fantasy so win-win!

If they can't cough/sneeze in their elbows every time, this is what I do. I have a bunch of packs from the $ store on hand.
