26) Fairy Dust (little tube jars of very fine glitter, sprinkle a little bit for extra magic healing power-be careful not to get in the eyes.)

28) A boo-boo book and some special crayons (sheets of construction paper held together with a ring binder thing, child can draw the "story" of their boo-boo.)
