Warning Signs

With allergies running rampant, something as simple as sharing a snack has become a potentially life-threatening experience. Factor in the risk of parental panic attacks, and it's a dangerous situation. Finding a balance between raising allergic children in a protective bubble and exposing them to serious risks is a huge challenge.

That challenge just got a little easier with the launch of Star Allergy Alerts, a collection of stickers, badges and T-shirts from Australia that lets children tell the world the things they need to avoid in a friendly and simple way.

Bright modern colors and cute designs feature phrases like "No Nuts for Me!" "I'm Allergic to Milk," "I Have Diabetes," and many others. All the major childhood allergies and conditions are covered (soy, wheat, gluten, sugar, etc.), but there's a customizable version, too. Pin a button onto your child's clothing before playgroups and birthday parties and you can breathe just a little easier. The stickers are perfect for lunchboxes, backpacks, sippy cups, day care cubbies and anywhere else you need to post a warning.

And when you worry less about their allergies, you'll have plenty of time to worry about everything else: money, wrinkles, preschool admissions, your in-laws...
