The challenge is real if you have babies or even older kids: finding products made with naturally sourced ingredients that also effectively help soothe symptoms and support kids' immune systems.

For little ones 2 months and older, Zarbee's® Baby + Children's Soothing Chest Rub is a beeswax balm free of parabens, menthol and artificial fragrances.

For kids aged 2-12, Zarbee's® Children's Cough + Mucus Syrup is made with English ivy leaf, honey, elderberry and zinc and is formulated to help soothe the throat, provide cough relief and clear mucus.

And these are just two of the products in Zarbee's® range of wellness products, made with naturally inspired ingredients to help your kids feel their best.

As a pediatrician-founded brand, Zarbee's® makes products crafted with ingredients inspired by nature and known for their effectiveness. For instance, honey, a key element in many Zarbee's® products, is known for naturally soothing cough symptoms.
