Another Resource for Recipes...

I just came across a fantastic website for food allergy related cookbooks called food-allergy.org. The books pertain to multiple food allergies - not just peanuts.

I've finally completed my website overhall and it's up and running (hopefully glitch free - fingers crossed).

What's A "Play Date Card"?


One of the new items I have listed on Allergy Alert Tags (once it gets back up and running VERY soon!) are what I'm calling "Play Date Cards". They are simply a folded notecard with room for writing your child's name on the front. Cards are blank inside for customizing allergen info and contact numbers - which may change depending on where you're leaving your child.

How do they work and what are they for? Simply fill one out before leaving your child at a friend's house, a birthday party, the babysitters, etc.
The cards provide added peace of mind that your child's caregiver has the needed information regarding your child's allergies. The brightly colored cardstock makes them easy to locate.

New Products...EpiPen Buttons


I'm looking forward to introducing a few new products to my Allergy Alert Website. One of those products are "EpiPen Buttons". These pin back buttons can be attached to backpacks, or other cases or totes that contain your child's EpiPen - making it easier to locate your child's EpiPen in case of an emergency.
