Sea-Band Children's Wrist Bands 1 Pair

We’ve travelled to the same beach condo 3 years in a row. We leave the same time every year, drive the same route, in the same vehicle and the past 2 yrs my son (now 7) has gotten so car sick we’d have to pull over several times and sit outside at a rest stop up to an hour before he can manage to get back into the car without getting sick. The first year, what we call puke-a-polooza, he got sick, throw up all over himself and the backseat, his older sister next to him, saw the puke, and threw up all over herself and her side of the backseat. So we spent over an hour at a car wash vacuuming out the car and trying to remove the stench from the car. We had only driven 3 hours and had another 7hrs to go! Back to these bands. I’ve tried the medication and the stickers behind the ear. None seemed to work. Got these bands because I wasn’t taking any chances this year and really didn’t want to extend our traveling time. Put the bands on him about an hour into the drive. Roughly 30 minutes before we got to the spot where he always seems to get sick (talking to you Virginia) and he was perfectly fine! We didn’t have to stop any additional times for sickness. Wore them on the way there and back and no sickness, no crying, and most importantly NO puke. Comfortable fit. A little snug but not constricting. Easy to wear and fit in cute little compact. The only negative is I ordered the blue pair for my blue loving son and we got army green. I’d imagine they work exactly the same, but that’s my only negative thing about these. I’ve already ordered myself an adult size for myself. Seriously if anyone in your family gets car sick, get these! You’ll thank me and these bands!

Highly recommend! My 5 year old used these on a cruise and they made a huge difference! I was skeptical at first, but they really work. They aren’t uncomfortable, he forgot he was wearing them most of the time and they held up well for the week he used them!

My 3 year old has gotten car sick a few times so I bought these trying to find something that might help during long car rides. Cleaning up a child, carseat and car mid-trip is NOT fun and makes the car ride that much longer!! We travel in the car often to visit family and friends so I was desperate to find a solution. Since she is only 3, I wasn't sure what I was going to do to keep her occupied during our long car rides when she gets car sick doing almost anything. My sister suggested we try these so I bought them thinking it was worth a shot. We have gone on two 5 hour car rides since I purchased these and she was able to play, watch a movie and color without getting sick! I'm hopeful these will be our solution!! I read some reviews that thought there was not a difference in size between the child ones and the adult ones (only the colors were different). Although I have not tried the adult version, I would highly suggest the child size for toddlers or small children. The bands were the right size for my 3 year old and although I could squeeze them on my wrists, I think they would become uncomfortable and too tight on my wrists after awhile. My daughter wore them without any complaining about the size or tightness. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because you do not get to pick your colors. It would be nice to have a choice. We received the green camo ones. It would not have been my first choice in colors but they served their purpose and are only worn during our long car rides.

Update from my original post below, we contacted sea bands and they responded immediately with a new pair to replace the fraying one. Great service! Well my daughter loves them (we bought them for her to wear on the long bus ride to/from school), the color and fit are great, and they seem to work, but it’s been less than 2 weeks and they’re already tearing apart at the seams! I’ve contacted Sea Bands to see if they can do anything, we may return them. I’ll update this post with our end results…picture attached.

We bought these for our daughter who often gets carsick. This is our second pair, the first was the adult size, in black, when we ordered these as a replacement we received the bue camo style. We aren't too crazy for the pink-is-for-girls, blue-is-for-boys mentality, so the blue works fine for us, but I could see that this would be off putting for some princessy-girls. I do like the bright hue though as the adult black ones we had got lost so many times just because of how dark they were. Both work great and do exactly as advertised. The material is more tightly woven on the child bands, but both sizes fit the same, though the fabric on the adult size did seem to pill up a bit like a sweater. Overall great acupressure bands that work great. No complaints!!

We got a pair of pink bands in the mail, which work for us since we have a little girl. We liked the idea of not having to give our daughter medication for her severe car sickness. She usually gets sick after 20 minutes in the car. She liked her "bracelets" and we were looking forward to trying them. On our first trip, we drove an hour and she did not get sick once. We did a few more trips that were about an hour long, and she was alright. We were amazed. Then we tried a 1 1/2 hour trip. We were 5 minutes from our destination when our daughter got really sick. Same thing on another trip little over an hour. We think this is a decent product and is alright for "shorter" road trips (depending on your definition of short, of course). However, we need something more dependable when we are away from home.

They Work! We take at least one often more 8+ hour drives to see family each year. My daughter gets car sick on car trips over 45 minutes, and we were having to stop for long periods of time making our already long trips excessively long and miserable. So we tried these out, and now they are a must have for long drives. As long as we remember to put them on before we leave, and place them correctly she doesn't get sick. We do have to take them off when we stop for meals etc. because the small plastic bump that pushes on the pressure point can press hard enough to indent and irritate her skin after wearing for many hours. (Like falling asleep in your jeans and waking up with an imprint of them on your skin!) But if it doesn't put pressure it wont work, so we just take breaks from it and adjust the positioning slightly and it works out fine. Also my daughter just loves the Camo design. They worked so well I bought an adult pair for myself when I was experiencing morning sickness during pregnancy and it made a difference. (Although mine weren't these cool camo bands, they were plain blue) It seems to me the first time we put them on they were way too tight, so I had to give them a good stretching (Like before you blow up a balloon) so they were loose enough not to be restricting circulation, but tight enough to put pressure in the right spot.

This is our second pair of these and it’s obvious when my 7 year old doesn’t have them on. They work!

I purchased these for my 7 year old. Over the last few years, she has been getting car sick quite easily. These work amazing. To put it into perspective: Yesterday, we drove 27.2km and she was feeling sick between 10-15km. She did not have the bands on. We had to wait 5-10 minutes before entering a store because she still felt like she was going to be sick. Today, we drove 48.8km. She was wearing these bands. That's 21.6km more than the previous day. Almost double the amount of driving. She never felt sick once. We didn't have to wait in the car while she almost gets sick before entering a store. She was absolutely fine. When we took off the bands when we got home, they did leave some impressions on her wrist but she said she couldn't feel the bands and forgot she was wearing them. I will be purchasing another pair for my parents vehicle. Definitely recommend to anyone curious if they work. I would suggest to the manufacturer to change the band fabric to help not leave impressions around the wrist.

Passt gut und erzielt die gewünschte Wirkung bei unserem Sohn

Works great, my baby didn't get car sickness after wearing it

The product really works.

My 3.5 year old gets extremely car sick and is terrified of car rides because of it. We finally convinced him to give these bracelets a try and they have been a game changer! For the first time in over 2 years, he hasn’t gotten sick in the car, even managing to handle a 2+ hour drive when normally he’d be throwing up within 30 minutes. We don’t go anywhere without his magic bracelets now.
