Westlake Village, CA – Whether you struggle with seasonal allergies, or have children who will be fighting off cold and flu germs this school year, the sniffles are a plight that we all at one point will have to cope with. Inspired by a mom in search of a more effective way to address the issues of the sniffles, the Sniffle Duffle™ was designed to be a safe, clean and a fun teaching tool to help encourage kids to build healthy habits, and be responsible snifflers, while reducing the spread of germs.

The Sniffle Duffle is a cozy fun pouch that is ultra functional and portable for the sniffler on the go. One side of the pouch holds a sleeve of travel pack tissues, once a tissue is used; the backside of pouch has a convenient elastic pocket to store dirty tissues until they can be disposed of. There are also two secret pockets in the center of the Sniffle Duffle. One pocket holds a face/lip balm, and the other contains a non-alcoholic hand cleanser. The Sniffle Duffle Kits comes complete with, the Sniffle Duffle, an organic face/lip balm, no-rinse hand cleanser, and travel size tissues. Each Sniffle Duffle also comes equipped with a carabiner clip, which can be attached to a belt loop, backpack, side of a classroom desk, diaper bag, purse or clipped on the Sniffle Duffle Cozy Companion™, anywhere your sniffles go the Sniffle Duffle can follow.  Some have found this handy accessory, with its contents useful for everyday use.

The organic lip/ face Cozy Balm will prevent and soothe red chapped faces, noses and lips. Since this Cozy Balm is organic, and uses no chemicals, toxins, or parabens, it is safe for babies, kids and adults to use.  Additional organic lip/face cozy balms can be purchased for $3.95 MSRP.  The all natural, Ickies Be Gone™ hand cleanser is free of alcohol, triclosan, and other chemical from the BAC or QATS family. The compact pen size container slips right into the center pocket for easy access of use to help stop the spread of germs. This safe hand cleanser can also be purchased separately for $3.00 MSRP.  The Sniffle Duffle is machine washable and dryer safe, so it can be reused anytime the sniffles attack.

It is the goal of the creator of the Sniffle Duffel, at Zubie’s Village LLC, to inspire kids and their families to become members of the Responsible Sniffle Club™, and help promote safe, cozy and clean habits within their community.  Committed to the cause, Zubie’s Village LLC will also make this new beneficial product available for school fundraisers where 30% of proceeds earned will go directly back to the school.

About Zubie’s Village LLC:

Zubie’s Village LLC was started by Candace Coleman, a mom who was inspired during her daughter’s last bout with the flu virus. She wondered how she could attach something to her daughter to address the three issues of having the sniffles. Her goal was to find a way to better teach her children the importance of tissue use, and cleanliness, while also reducing the amount of stray tissues she would find around the house. She also wanted to reduce the discomfort associated with red nose syndrome.  By combining all these important concepts the fun and fashionable Sniffle Duffle was created. However, Coleman’s mission doesn’t just stop with the Sniffle Duffle™, she hopes to inspire and promote safe, cozy and clean products in order to help others build healthy habits and reduce the spread of sniffle germs in their communities while staying cozy and comfortable.
