desymbol: This Bug-Shaped Sticker Measures A Child’s Temperature And Helps Them Deal With Illness

Every parent can agree that raising kids is not an easy task and the difficulty only grows when children find themselves with one ailment or another. You could easily explain that the liquid with an awful taste is a medicine that’s going to make them feel better, or that this weird device is meant to measure their temperature to find out just how serious their condition is. But kids? Kids would have none of it and try to squirm (oftentimes literally) away from the situation only to complain that they feel bad in the same breath.

Well, if you’re a parent that has trouble taking your child’s temperature, this nifty little device might be just the right thing. Physio Logic is coming to the rescue with their “Feverbugz”, a stick-on fever indicator that not only takes away the hassle of disturbing your sleeping child, but also keeps it fun for your kid. The stickers come in various shapes, such as a bee or a caterpillar, and can continuously measure the child’s temperature for up to 48 hours.
