Overheard from our friends: "Thank you so much for the Mr. Blister bath thermometer and information on avoiding burns. I received it 3 1/2 years ago, and it still helps me immensely. We just had our second child, and now my toddler helps prepare the infant's bath water with the thermometer card. I am much more comfortable bathing her when I know the water temperature is right. The information you sent on avoiding burns changed my habits - I now turn pot handles in, don't drink scalding liquids, and have educated my toddler to keep a safe distance form the oven and stove. Your work has made us all safer and happier. Thank you very much!!" A. Phillips - Idaho |
