MediBuddy - First Aid Kit by me4kidz - Medi Buddy

This kit is something every mom should have. It's not so much that the products included (cute bandaids, a few antiseptic wipes, some antibiotic ointment, a little gauze and some bigger bandages for skinned knees) are fantastic - they're just run-of-the mill stuff - but having a handy portable kit like this that you can easily re-fill with some additional antiseptic wipes (a need) and extra bandaids in additional sizes can be a lifesaver when you're out and about and the unexpected happens.

Just the other day, a plastic display stand fell off a shelf in our local superstore and hit my three year old on the face, leaving a small cut. I was so glad I had my little kit with just the necessities (usually no need for a tourniquet or surgical scissors when you run errands) so that I could clean the cut, put a little ointment, and a cute bandaid and she was happy as a clam knowing that Mommy can fix it. I have one in my diaper bag now, but I'm buying more to stash around in purses and the glove boxes - we have the big bulky kits but the truth is that you use the basics and the big intimidating stuff just gets in the way.


The best thing about this product is the handy hard case and the convenient size and shape - the rounded bullet shape fits anywhere, into anything. Get one and carry peace of mind in your stroller, purse, diaper bag, or desk drawer! Honestly, go ahead and buy a tiny tube of neosporin because you'll be needing it, a pair of regular, run-of-the mill tweezers for splinters and bee stings, and some extra antiseptic wipes to throw in there, and then stock up on these for the awesome cases.Read more

First Aid Only First Responder Emergency First Aid Kit, 159-Piece Bags

First Aid Only First Responder Emergency First Aid Kit, 159-Piece Bags




This kit has stuff for small injuries and for large emergencies.I highly recommend this for every day parents who might need it for any accidents.

If you are a medically-trained professional, this kit needs some "extras" to make it complete. I added a stethoscope, BP cuff, pen light, and lots more plastic gloves, but that was all. The kit has a few empty pockets and these "extras" fit perfectly. The kit is relatively small in size and doesn't take up much space in my car, or wherever you plan to store it. Overall, a great buy and worth having for any situation.

Adventure Medical Kits Sportsman Kit


Sportsman Adventure first aid Kits





Hunting and fishing demand specially-tailored gear, which is why Adventure Medical Kits hs created the Sportsman kit. Designed for recreational hunters and fishermen on trips up to four days long, the Sportsman contains supplies to treat the most common injuries, including penetration wounds from bullets or arrows, fish hook removal, stabilizing sprains, and stopping severe bleeding. Weighing just over a pound and compact enough to fit in any pack, the Sportsman is required equipment on your next hunting/fishing adventure. 


It has the basics of first aid in it as well as a few other things that come in handy. The most important feature of this kit though, is the little first-aid book. This thing covers from A to Z in outdoor medicine. Worth the price just for the book alone


If someone get's shot on the hunting trip you can hold them over, if two people were shot the 2nd guy would be out of luck. (which I suppose would be pretty unlikely) Anyhow, I also like that there is a survival and first aid book to walk you through details as well as little note cards in each individual pouch explaining what supplies to use for different types of injuries. In all I'd say you could probably piece this together with more of the crucial supplies yourself for less, but if you're lazy and just want it done for you, then this is it.Read more

First Aid Only American Red Cross Emergency Preparedness W/first Aid Kit, Soft Case


First Aid Only American Red Cross



This innovative American Red Cross 67pc. emergency preparedness kit (manufactured by First Aid Only) comes in a convenient, all-inclusive package. Zippered pocketbook design provides easy access to contents and the smaller size makes it versatile enough for travel, home, office, school or car. 

Kit includes: first aid guide, call 9-1-1 banner, vinyl gloves, ample bandages and gauze pads, blister prevention, first aid tape, antiseptics, hand sanitizer, ointments, light stick, emergency blanket, emergency poncho, face mask, whistle with neck cord and germicidal wipes. 


These kits are a great value. You'd be hard pressed to make two of your own emergency preparedness/first aid kits for less money.

We bought these to put in our vehicles, but they'd be perfect to throw in your back pack for a hike too. They're compact enough to fit in your glove box, but still have enough room to add a few additional items. We added an eGear PICO light and Little Hotties hand warmers to each kit and still have room to add more. I still plan on adding some burn jel packs and other odds and ends.

1 Rain poncho
1 Emergency blanket
