What Are the Essentials of a First Aid Kit For A Baby?
My daughter is 6 months and I want to start a first aid kit. What are some essential parts of a first aid kit besides band aids and alcohol?

Benedryl for allergic reactions, baby tylenol or motrin, orajel, neosporin, different size band-aids, one of those cold-pack things....I'm sure you can check babies r us for a pre-packaged first aid kit and just purchase the same items from the drug store for 1/2 the price.
