The Gelly Belly Grizzly Bear

Cold or Heat - Fun and Comfort for Kids of All Ages

Gelly Belly Bears have special gel packs that can be heated in the microwave or chilled in the freezer, then fit into the bear through a nearly invisible opening in the back that's kept closed with Velcro. They can be used by headache sufferers for hot or cold therapy.

Pros - Points for the Gelly Belly Grizzly Bear

The Gelly Belly Grizzly bear has many features that make it an excellent choice:

• The bear is made of washable fur.
• The eyes, nose, and mouth cannot be pulled off, so they don't present a risk of swallowing when the bear is used by children.
• The gel pack is safe to warm in a microwave or chill in the freezer and is nontoxic.
• The gel pack stays warm or cool well.
• Replacement gel packs are available, making it possible to keep extras on hand and change them out as needed.

Cons - Points Against the Gelly Belly Grizzly Bear

The Gelly Belly Grizzly Bear is not the cooling and heating product for you if you want something you can place on your head. It's too heavy for this type of use.

Summary

The Gelly Belly Grizzly Bear is a good choice for hot or cold therapy if you want something you can press your head against, especially when lying down. The bear provides a comfortable layer between your skin and the gel pack. When the gel pack is heated, it's soothing for the relief of mild stomach ache. The design of the Gelly Belly Grizzly Bear makes it a good choice for children. Without the gel pack, it can be incorporated into their daily life, making it a natural for them to reach for when they're ill and need it with the gel pack.
