Meet the Buddies
Which one will they pick?
Classic characters for little ones and the Growing Collection for bigger kids. Same reusable hot + cold gel pack inside every Buddy.
How a Buddy helps
One Buddy for all the little ouchies.
Chill the gel pack for the bumps. Warm it for the aches. Either way, they get a soft friend to hold instead of a hard, icy pack.
Bumps + bruises
Playground knocks, coffee-table corners and the bed they swore they would not jump on.
Sore tummies
Gentle warmth to hold close on the couch when their tummy is not feeling right.
Bug bites + stings
Cool relief for itchy bites and minor stings after a day outside.
Growing aches
For those achy legs at bedtime, when a little warmth and a cuddle go a long way.
Sporting tumbles
Pack one in the sports bag for Saturday sport, scooter spills and trampoline mishaps.
Big feelings
When the tears are bigger than the bump, a familiar Buddy gives them something soft to squeeze.
Why not just an ice pack?
Ice packs are made for grown-ups. Buddies are made for kids.
A bare ice pack is hard, icy and not something kids want to keep on. Tuck the same idea inside a soft friend they chose themselves, and suddenly they are asking for it.

Made by a mum
Chloe created Boo Boo Buddy because the usual ice pack was never something her kids wanted to keep on.
