This week’s Works for Me Wednesday tip is one that I learned from my mom: the beauty of a red washcloth.
When a child falls down and scrapes a knee, or gets some other variety of bleeding wound, when does he generally freak out? Typically, it isn’t when he first gets hurt. It’s when he first sees blood.
At that point, oh me, oh my, there is no calming him. So my mom always kept a red washcloth in the first aid basket – and now I do, too – to be used for cleaning up these injuries. If they can’t see the blood, the children are often much calmer, and it’s far easier to get the wound cleaned up and bandaged and the child back outside playing happily.
