![]() Well its fall in Virginia and that means the start of cold and allergy season again. My one year old seems to be taking it the hardest, nose constantly running, and all that congestion settling into her chest to make for one nasty cough. Poor thing sounds like she’s purring sometimes when she breathes. Unfortunately there’s nothing that you can give her to make her feel better. She’s too young for allergy and cold meds, and I’m not big on giving my kids unnecessary meds anyways. So I called our pediatrician to see if there was anything I could do to ease her suffering, and you know what she said? She told me that a humidifier could work wonders. That’s right, a Humidifier. Did you know that The National Institutes of Health recommends the use of humidifiers to help relieve congestion from the common cold, flu and sinus infections? It’s a perfect way to help any member of the family suffering through the latest cold and flu season, without having to resort to medicines. Using a humidifier has MANY great benefits:
So I couldn’t have been more excited to receive a Crane Blue Drop Humidifier to review. I’ve been hearing such wonderful things about the Crane brand for months now, and boy did they ever live up to my expectations. Set up was incredibly simple, just take out of the box and add water. No digging through a 10 page instruction manual to see what all the knobs do, everything was super easy and self-explanatory. The first thing I noticed was that when they say “whisper quiet” they are serious! This humidifier made no sound at all, which for my light sleeper was exactly what I needed. I had actually received a humidifier at my baby shower that said it was quiet, but actually was so loud it was useless! Another cool feature was the movable 360 degree nozzle, allowing me to aim the steam where I needed it – at my little one's crib. Some more great Crane features are:
1. Empty water from the Water Tank and Water Basin daily. 2. Disinfect your humidifier water tank and water basing with a few capfuls of white vinegar and some fresh water. Let sit for 30 minutes than rinse a few times to remove the vinegar smell. 3. Always make sure that the humidifier tank and basin are thoroughly air dried before storing. I think it's safe to say that I am blow away by Crane and their products. It’s rare that I come across a product that lives up to all its hype, but this company does and more. Head on over and check out their wonderful modular line of drop humidifiers in an array of colors. Or check out their super cute and FUN Adorable line, with elephants, frogs, dragons and many more too choose from.

I learned that to keep your humidifier clean you should empty the water tank and basin daily and disinfect them at least once a week.
