Boogers! Phlegm and Mucus! And A #Sneeve
The cold from HELL has been around in our family for months now. We keep giving back and forth! I’m really ready to pass it along to another family already…. any takers??
One really cool and unique thing I have to help us get rid of this cold is the Sneeve. I have to tell you, Alice was so funny when I told her we were going to review the Sneeve. She turned to me and said “What the heck is a Sneeve?” So I explained it’s a sleeve that goes over your arm, over your sleeve and collects gross things like germs and she immediately said “oh like boogers” Yup, like boogers.
The Centers for Disease Control recommends coughing and sneezing into the upper sleeve to help stop germs from spreading. Given that kids in the U.S. average about 10 colds a year, that’s a lot of coughing and sneezing into a whole lot of sleeves.
So I snapped some pictures of Alice with her Sneeve on then we did our video review. All is well; the review is going great; I mean hello, why wouldn’t it? Cute kid, ingenious product.
Each Sneeve fits well; and are comfortable to wear per 4-year-old Alice. The Sneeve fits at the crook of your arm; over the elbow. This way when kids do the vampire sneeze or cough, the Sneeve catches the germs! Best of all these Anti-Viral sleeves kill 99.9% of all germs! Seriously! How cool is that?!?! There are 7 sleeves per package.
The bright blue Sneeve fits comfortably on most kids 3 to 8 and reminds them to cough and sneeze into their arms. It resembles the compression sleeves that athletes use, and shows kids how they can have power over germs. The anti‐microbial application, used in hospitals, is made from citric acid and silver. It’s safe for kids but merciless on viruses and bacteria.
I was showing Alice the cute little sticker that came on the package of the Sneeves. The sticker has a cartoon nose; with of course; green snot. Alice thought this sticker was the funniest thing ever and went t work patiently and meticulously peeling the sticker away from the package. Later in the day Alice and myself were working on a different review of these cute little wooden dolls when this happened (The reviewer in me immediately went into product mode!! You can hear me in the background scrambling for the Sneeves! This was too good to pass up)
The Sneeve, made entirely in the U.S., is available now at TheSneeve.com, and will be available at chain drug stores and other retailers early next year. Price online is $9.99 for a box of 7, with free two-day shipping with the purchase of two boxes or more.
WHINES
Not a single whine here. Sneeves are soft, stretchy, absorbent little sleeve that kids wear over their arms, shirts, sweaters, sweatshirts or pajamas to catch the yucky stuff and help stop it from spreading. One Sneeve will last a full day!! Not only protecting your child’s clothing but absorbing phlegm and mucus; a full 99.9% of viruses and bacteria on contact!! What could I whine about?!

Interesting new prouct. I’m just not sure if my kids would have kept them on their arms to get the benefits from it.

I have never heard of this product; sounds funny at first, but does come in hand for the children. Thanks for an amusing post.

This is a good thing for the kids to have, something to sneeze into, reminding them to cover their mouth when they sneeze. I also like that it kills 99.9 % of all germs! I wish this was around when my children were younger, it’s such a neat item to have for them.
Sara Schwab
This is a very nice blog. I like it cause it kills germs
Laura
I also love that the sleeves kill 99.9% of all germs. It’s really a great concept!
Tamra Phelps
These are really a great idea. Kids might actually remember to sneeze into the arm with these.
Monica
Wow! This is a cute thing for the kids to wear when they´re sick!
Alice looks so cute in this video too!
Patty R.
Alice’s reaction was the same as mine when I was reading this. LOL Alice is going to have to learn how to do video editing, so she can take all the time she wants, without your videos taking forever and ever. She could do it too! Kids are so smart!

Way to switch gears on the video from dolls to sneeves. I love Alice.
KATE SARSFIELD
Look out Hollywood, here comes Alice! I’m telling you Connie, that girl is a natural (wonder where she could possibly have got all that talent from?)!
Laura
Alice is too cute in this video! I’m sorry to hear that ya’ll haven’t been feeling well. Hopefully that dreadful cold goes away soon.
Tamra Phelps
This would be great in warmer months, especially, when we wear short sleeves! You don’t want to sneeze right onto your skin, lol.
