   Bandaids are pure gold when treating cuts and scratches on toddler and preschool children, stopping all crying and pain,

   but will also unexpectedly cure many things for which they’re not intended.

    

   The daycare where I once worked had a huge supply, but the teachers tended to offer them only in cases of actual bleeding.

   I was an aide…. A part-time job for a college student.

   I gave them out more freely, and became the go-to person for bruised knees and bruised feelings.

   Even if I couldn’t see a mark on the child, covering the pretense of a wound with a timely bandaid stopped pain, tears, jealousy and rage.

   Joey got a band-aid and you didn’t? Oh no.

   Poor baby. Show me where it hurts.

   Magic.

    

   A few years after I’d left the preschool, they came out with colored bandaids and then printed ones.

   A Superman, Mickey Mouse, or rainbow bandage will cute absolutely anything, even invisible wounds, or unexplainable tears.

   My 4 year old niece, knowing I had some rainbow bandaids in my purse, demanded one for a cold.

   I put it on her forehead. It helped.

   Ah… but remember what the kids said in 3rd grade:

   If you’re starving in the desert…

   Just eat the sand which is there.

   The units on the gullibility scale are called “brewsters”.

    Yes.

    I’ve never been there, but I’ve seen Korean bowls and cups, in fact pretty much all kinds of tableware, made of metal, as well.
