As the world battles the coronavirus, #stayhomesavelives becomes the new normal. Earlier this month, my best friend was diagnosed with COVID-19. Luckily her symptoms were relatively mild. She was able to stay at home, in isolation, and she recovered completely within a couple of weeks. It made me consider the products I would like to have at home if I were in a similar situation, just in case they might ease the symptoms a little. (No promises peeps – I have no medical training.) I’ve also included my other lockdown essentials and the products I’m relying on to help keep my home germ-free.

This infrared forehead thermometer gives a fast and accurate reading for babies, children and adults.
Your smartphone is probably the one item you touch most over the course of a day, meaning it is likely harboring a fair few germs! Simply pop it in this sanitizing case and let ultraviolet lights kill the bacteria whilst your phone is charging.
Salt pipes are clinically proven to ease breathing, helping with sinus problems, allergies, the common cold, hay fever and congestion.
Low humidity can cause or worsen a dry cough. This humidifier adds moisture to the air, making breathing easier.
When lockdown prevents you being with loved ones, use the Facebook Portal TV to video call with them – on the largest screen in your home.

Olbas Oil is an effective decongestant. The natural vapours relieve blocked noses.
Anti-bacterial and anti-virus surface spray cleaner and disinfectant.
This alcohol-free hand sanitizer kills 99.99% bacteria and, as an added bonus, this one offers 24-hour protection too.

Keeping active is also really important and I’m grateful for my Nintendo Switch fitness games for providing me with a fun way to exercise indoors. As a family, we love cooperative board games and right now one of our favorites, Pandemic, is particularly apt! We’re really enjoying the extra time to play board games, do some jigsaw puzzles and spend time in the garden, playing backyard games, working in our vegetable patch or simply reading. (Right now, I’m enjoying Longbourn by Jo Baker.)
