Exergen Temporal Scanner Thermometer Review & Giveaway


My youngest child is 6 yrs old and my oldest is 18. Things certainly have changed in the time span between my kids. With my oldest, if she was sick, she got the thermometer under her arm (which she hated) or in a place that is unmentionable...anywhere. THAT was always a treat. Flash forward to my youngest son when he's about 2-3 yrs old and we visit the doctor. They've got this thermometer they swipe across my sons forehead! Oh, I have GOT to find one of them!
Baby Scanner
I headed to the one place I knew would carry them, Babys R Us and sure enough, there's the Exergen Temporal Scanner Thermometer! If I could use a Forehead Thermometer on my fussy, sick child and it's done in seconds, I am all for it!

Seriously, if your child is sick, the last thing they want is you messing with them long enough to get a temperature reading. I realize Digital Thermometers have come a long way, but you can't compare them to the accuracy of the Temporal Thermometer.

You know when you get a product sometimes, you're not sure how or when you might be able to use it so that you can review it effectively? Well, with a thermometer you pretty much use it when you're child is sick, right? How do you hope your kid will get sick just to use a product. And on top of that, they have to have a fever so that the review can be thorough!!

Guess what? My youngest Doodle got sick on Sunday. I went to the bathroom closet and grabbed our trusted Exergen thermometer and used it in mere seconds. These give very accurate readings. The only time we had misreadings were when the batteries were low.
Temporal Scanner
Sometimes if you're a new parent, you want to make sure you have a healthy baby and the Exergen Temporal Scanner Thermometer is an excellent choice. We've had ours for 3-4 yrs and am so thankful that it's part of our first aid kit! Truly, you can't go wrong! Your kids will thank you for it, too.
