Back-to-School Essential: PURELL Advanced Hand Sanitizer JELLY WRAP Carriers

It’s the ONE thing I worry about when it comes to school lunches – CLEAN HANDS.

I’m going to be honest here, with my 4 sons… I never know what their hands are going to look like at snack time or lunch time at school. When they’re home with me, I know I can remind them to wash their hands before they eat anything. When they’re away from me, it’s not so easy. I’m a stickler about them making sure they have clean hands before snack/lunch at school – especially during the cough and cold season – and I LOVE that PURELL has Jelly Wrap Carriers that are a HUGE help to me (and to them)!

We are obsessed with the Jelly Carriers in the McClelland household. I attach one to all of their lunchpacks and they use them throughout the day whenever they are eating.

PURELL Advanced Hand Sanitizer, the #1 brand in hospitals, is focused on reducing the risk of infection in professional work settings and schools and kills more than 99.99% of the most common germs that may cause illness. We literally have a PURELL dispenser in our house, so as soon as the boys come home from school or sports, they need to pop some on their hands. With me being pregnant this past year, and now with a newborn in the house, it’s even more important for my guys to be clean and sanitized. What’s more, studies have shown that classrooms that use PURELL Hand Sanitizer regularly, and have implemented hand hygiene educational programs, have a 51% lower absentee rate than classrooms that did not.*

PURELL Hand Sanitizer JELLY WRAP™ Carriers are available in the following summer seasonal scents and retail starting at $1.49 at major mass, food and drug locations: Ocean Kiss, Moonlit Moments, Sweet Papaya Mango and Watermelon Splash.

Every student should have one of these Jelly Carriers on their lunchpacks. It’s such a great way to promote cleanliness and reduce the risk of coughs and colds and germs!

I’m telling you, this is a Back-to-School ESSENTIAL for me.
