Tote Along Your Allergy Essentials

Our teenage son has always had the need to carry medication and at times food and other supplies everywhere he goes. I have tried a few different bag options, some better than others. There are many medication bags recommended for this need but they are usually more targeted to girls. The bag I was looking for needed to be small, but not too small, have a zipper pocket or two, sturdy, be comfortable to carry everywhere, not too expensive, and generally a bag he wants to carry (i.e. it had to have a ‘cool’ factor). I found this Nike Mini Backpack that met all of those needs. As a bonus, the backpack is offered in several different colors and the branding on it makes it not too easily missed or misplaced. We’ve replaced my son’s a few times – it goes everywhere and takes a beating, but it’s always with him. Mission accomplished.

What works for you and your family?
