We have the coolest six year old. He has suffered from a cold throughout this week with a cough and nasal congestion that was pretty intense. Last night he woke up with an ear ache which we treated with warm olive oil and cotton, some lavendar oil on the outside of his ear, tylenol, and a warm compress. Tonight to help his ear not ache, I told him I'd pay him $1.00 if he'd use the Neti Pot. He accepted the challenge. He's used it before but not for a looong time. He did it with no hesitation and didn't fuss about it at all. He's a smart one and knows it will help him feel better.
Didn't get a picture of it, but you'd probably be glad we spared you those details. And hey, he's $1.00 richer.
