Magic Bags Give the Gift of Comfort Naturally

I know I don’t need to remind you that 2020 hasn’t been a great year for anyone. We’re all in need of some extra comfort and TLC, which makes Magic Bags an especially thoughtful and practical gift idea for both adults and kids this year. Made in Canada and filled with organic grains, Magic Bags are designed to be easily warmed or cooled to soothe aches and pains, relax tense muscles, or reduce swelling – naturally.

Magic Bag Warmy Packs for Kids

Magic Bag’s Warmy hot/cold packs for kids are soft on the outside and filled with hypoallergenic rice on the inside. These cute and cuddly creatures make for great friends at the same time as they comfort sore tummies, soothe bumps and bruises, and encourage a good night’s sleep.

Warmy compresses are a safe way to heal pain or soothe a grumpy child. Simply heat your Warmy for 45 seconds in the microwave to help ward off chills, tummy aches or inflammation, or cool for 3 hours in the freezer to relieve swelling, bumps or bruises.

Warmies come in two sizes. The bigger stuffed animals are the perfect size to sleep with and keep the kids company all day. Choose from Alix the Lamb, Dax the Dinosaur, Duc the Dog, and Edgar the Elephant.

The rice is sewn permanently inside these big guys so we don’t leave ours in the freezer, but it’s easy to pop them in the microwave for 45 seconds before bed. With the temperatures dropping, my kids love bringing a warm, cuddly friend to bed with them. I’ve also noticed another nice bonus: the rice inside gives each stuffed animal a really nice weight and lets them sit upright for playtime!

Magic Bag also makes a second style of Warmy, and their names are Renardo the Fox and Ollie the Owl. These are smaller, flatter, and more like a soft cover for the removable insert. The inserts are filled with rice and work great in either the freezer or the microwave. The Velcro closure keeps the insert inside, and since there’s no extra stuffing, the cold and heat transfer more quickly.

These cute little guys work wonders on the constant bumps, bruises, and scrapes that kids collect every day. They’re flat so they stay put, and the smaller size is perfect for targeting sore spots. Plus Renardo and Ollie are just really friendly and adorable characters which help to distract upset kiddos from minor injuries.

Magic Bags for Parents

But what about us? As parents, we’re on the job 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We are chefs, coaches, therapists, referees, chauffeurs, personal stylists, entertainers, housekeepers, personal care attendants, teachers, nurses, and more. It’s a demanding job, especially right now, and we all need some self-care.

Fortunately, Magic Bag also makes hot/cold compresses for adults too! These come in lots of different shapes for different needs. Each has a 100% cotton shell and is filled with organic grains that hold both heat or cold for relaxing relief and natural healing.

Personally, I carry my stress in my neck and shoulders, and this year has certainly not had any shortage of stress. I’ve been using a hot neck-to-back Magic Bag the last couple of weeks after the kids have gone to bed and it’s become one of my favourite parts of the day. My Magic Bag takes about 2 minutes to warm up in the microwave, and the heat lasts about 20-30 minutes which coincidentally is just enough time to watch an episode of The Good Place on Netflix.

The horseshoe shape and Canadian organic oats inside mold to my shoulders so it stays put, sending moist, warm, penetrating heat right to those tight, knotted muscles in my neck and upper back. It’s not just the heat though, its comforting weight also helps soothe the day’s tension away.

Keep your Magic Bag in the freezer and it’s ready to go whenever you need a cold compress to help reduce swelling, relieve inflammation, or soothe pain. And when your Magic Bag finally wears out? You can cut open the bag and compost the organic grains inside by adding them to your garden or compost bin!
