Ladies, I have created a period panty line called Tomies (Time Of Month + Panties = Tomies). It is a leak proof period panty with a pocket on the front for a disposable heating pad or you can store extra pads/tampons in the pocket. Please check out my website to learn more @t
+Cam Mitch Awwww, how did I miss this comment. You brought a tear to my eye....that was so sweet of you to say. Although, I do not consider myself a super mom, I do try to do my very best at raising my daughters. I love them so much. Take care.
my mom will never do this but when I am older and have children I am going to be the mother that my mom never will be don't get me wrong she is amazing but for all this stuff I have to ask my dad and if u girls know that's uncomfortable lol .Keri you're such a good mom keep it like that
I know that to you, this is just part of being a mom, but to me, this is brave and thoughtful. My mother never spoke to me about sex, periods, boys, etc. It was a taboo subject. When I finally did start my cycle, she actually YELLED at me because I waited too long to tell her I had started it. I now have a daughter and I honestly (sadly) dread the talk with her about this because I never had an example to follow. Your daughters, should they ever have girls, will have had a very good example from you. My hat is off to you. It really isn't something that we should be ashamed of.
EssenceRose3 Awww, thanks for such an honest comment. It saddens me when I read comments like this. My mom was very good at explaining the period part and hygiene.....but unfortunately my siblings and I didn't really get much of a sex talk. Our sex talk consisted pretty much remain a virgin until you are married and that having premarital sex is a sin. I don't fault my mother though, because that is what she was taught. I hope you can fully embrace wanting to be more open with your daughters. And truth be told, you may have to "learn" some things yourself before you can share with your daughter. I am learning everyday, and boy oh boy...things have changed since I was a kid. My children ask me questions that I have absolutely NO IDEA how to answer....but I do my research and we talk about it later. I hope to share more videos beyond the period kit that will focus on sex and boys as I know that is such a hot topic with adolescents these days. Thanks for watching.
EssenceRose3 im sorry honestly I haven't got my period yet but one time my mom was like your might start your period in 5th grade and that is okay and she sad it all calm and cool so I THINK she might
This certainly beats the pad I kept in my sock as a teen. We use to wear plaid skirts and knee socks and I would put my pad in my sock...seriously a sock. Keri I wished I had thought of this for my oldest. Thank goodness babygirl hasn't started yet but I think I am going to do something like this for her. Really a good video and I agree with everyone else you are just so organized and a good momma (smile).
FRUGALNISTA Hahaahaha, I knew girls that used to put pads in their socks. Back when I first started my cycle, the pads did not have self sticking adhesive. I used to have to wear this elastic belt and attach the pad to it, and they were sooooo bulky...lol. Feminine products have come a long way. Maribella will be all set when that time comes. The jury is still out on me being organized...I should have done a "Let's Keep It Real Moment" for this video...lol.
Veri Keri HAHA Your too Funny...My Mom sd she had to wear the same mid-evil contraption. Who knew periods could be so complicated? I'm glad I do not need any of this..The simple ole "tampon in the glove compartment of my car trick" is all I require! lol
kelly knowles Kelly coming from a VERY conservative/sometimes ridicules family. tampons were never even offered as a choice for me. Perhaps I still have some of that ridicules thinking because I never gave my daughter the option of a tampon either. Silly huh?!
Ditto. Somehow tampons were "sinful". I didn't let my daughters wear them when they first started....they were both early bloomers...10 yrs old. When my oldest turned 14 and went to sleep away camp for the summer I let her use them because she wanted desperately to go swimming. Now she prefers them over pads.
10? AWE, Poor thing! I was lucky I guess..I was 16 and 11 months! LOL The funny part is that it started on April Fools Day! I tried to get some "assistance" from my mom but she just yelled for my dad! UGH! Dad was cool though, he took me to the store to pick out a new purse and then we both pretended to be looking at the baby food that was so appropriately placed across the isle from the famine products every time someone came down the isle. I am not even joking, when we got to the register..price check! We were soooo busted! But hey..At least it didn't happen at school while wearing white pants like some girls I knew. YIKES! My step daughter started hers bery young..9 or 10 as well. That is a story unto itself but since we couldn't get a hold of her bio-mom, we went the safe route and used the pads as much as they make me cringe. She now wears tampons as well and she is 15 now. I guess it is one of those things we females all go through.
I once put a pad in my lunchbox so I could change right after lunch and one of my guy friends took my lunchbox and dumped it out on the table he was so embarrassed and so was I 😂
I have similar story, I put pads in my lunch box and my "Friend" stole my lunch box. He looked inside the lunch box, (they were in a small package) he looked at them and read "Maxi pads". Assuming that meant for a heavy flow. We know that maxi is really just a brand name. I hate him anyways.
***** if a girl is in class and asks to use the bathroom and has a makeup bag in their hand, they all whisper and stare at you and they will say "ohhh (name) is on their period!" or "are you on your period?"
In between classes I take my next classes binders with me, and the pouch just looks like a pencil case. And girls shouldn't judge eachother for period supplies.
A great solution is take a snack sized ziplock bag and put a few wipes it. You ca then take your wipes and pad/tampon and slide it into your bra or pocket so you don't have to bring the entire kit and people won't know
Well don't care what they think because a period is a natural thing. If I had to change my pad and I didn't have my makeup bag, I would just go with the pad on hand because the people need to learn how to not be immature about a very natural part of a woman's life
I made one for my daughter a couple of years ago and she didn't need it until yesterday. 😊 One of the things I did was have her "practice" using the sanitary napkin. I had her wear one (with wings) for a whole day and walk around with it so she could become accustomed to applying and wearing it. When the time finally came, she was soooo prepared! I also made her a locker kit with all the essentials (lotion, hand sanitizer, portable brush, hair ties, safety pins, sewing kit, etc.). The makeup bag I put all the items in has a handle so she just hangs it from a hook in her locker. Great video on something that a lot of people don't like to talk about. But it's life for us girls! Thank you for sharing, Keri!
Dianne de Las Casas That was such a great idea to have her practice before she actually started her cycle! Glad that she was prepared for when the time came. Good idea about hanging the locker kit on a hook in her locker. I will ask my girls if they would want one of these kits as well. Hope your weekend is off to a great start.
Thanks, Keri! Have a fantastic weekend! I'm having a birthday dinner party. I think you'd love my tablescape. Like you, I love to entertain and throw a good party. Are you on IG? If so, you can check me out at @AuthorDianneDLC.
Good Morning Sunshine! Your such a super mom! I so needed that when I was their age. My stash is currently in my glove compartment lol.... I will be putting one of these together. Thanks Veri Keri!
Bemyguestwithdenise Denise Cooper You and me both! I put me a little stash together to keep as part of my car kit organization. Hope you had a Happy Monday!
Omg thank you i am 11 and started a few weeks ago i was on line looking for ideas to bring to school i saw this and I thought it was amazing it helped so much thank you it also helped me have the courage to tell my mom i started 😘😘😘
Savanna And mady Awwww. this comment just warms my heart. I am so happy that my videos helped you to be able to talk to your mother. cyber hi-five :) Have a wonderful weekend darling.
Love love love!! Great job, i put a basket together for my neices, with reading literature, and spa - like items. I turn this time into TLC time, so mine also included facial masks, scrubs, candles, manicure items and fluffy socks ;) turning one of the most confusing emotional times into a celebration . Cudos for this vid!!
You get the mom of the year award form me!!!! LOVE your creativity...I wish that I had these ideas around when my girls were in school. I will pass these ideas along to the youth group at my church. Thank you for such inspiring ideas and information. Your family is blessed : )
The carefree panty liners in his video are the BEST I'm wearing one right now, and I'm still in the first few months of my period and I can't feel the panty liner at all. They are super comfortable :D
Hi, i'm 14 and I want to say that judging by your user name, you dance, and I want to say that dancing with a tampon is so much more comfortable that with pads, they also don't stick out of my leotard, so its a bit more discrete
Sparkyest Dog No way tampons are my worst fear ^.^ I'll be fine with liners, and I just wear a leotard for ballet techniquee and shorts or leggings and a tank top or sports bra so I'll be fine for the most of it xD
I love that you do this for your daughters. They are so fortunate to have such a caring mom. In my adult period pouch, I also keep a tiny swing kit with extra buttons and safety pins.
Awww thanks. I love hearing comments from the adults. I will be sharing some new puberty, hygiene, period and talking to your kids about sex videos soon so stay tuned :)
I am 25 with a 3 yr old and a 13 yr old step daughter. my mother never talked or helped me with anything to do with my period! I am totally doing this for my girls!! thank you so much!!!
I'm 17. I got my period when I was 12. And I prefer tampons. I started using them around 13-14 and I've had to buy them myself. I buy pamprin for myself and my mom buys for herself. I really wish my mom was as open to talking about it.
What a lovely Mommy you are ...I almost cried at this. You thought of everything to ensure you little girls have a smooth as possible cycle. Love you heart!
+VeriKeri Your videos help a lot because I am the only person who has my period still and my family doesn't talk much about it. I am 11 and buy my own period products (With my parents money). My "Talk" was placing a pad on. You are so helpful!
I just wanted to tell you that I think it is so great that you do this for your daughters and that you put so much thought into it for them and try to help them out as much as you can. You really are such a great mother.
Very, very, very smart idea! I wish I had thought of doing that when my daughter and older nieces we're young school age. I have another niece who just turned 13 who I am going to do this for. I am going to make one for myself as well! Right now I have all of my TOM accessories in different places in my purse and work bag. I'm going to make a cute kit and have them all conveniently in one place. Would love to see your period kit/storage you have for the home. Thanks for all of your awesome videos!
I love how you are so open about all of this!! I also love how you use all proper terms and don't make girls and women (and your daughters) feel embarrassed about having their period! Lx
I have watched both videos & they are awesome. My daughter is grown bu I will be sending her these videos. She has a 4 yr old daughter. I realize that time is a little ways off but time flies & it will be in the back of her mind.
Such a good idea! My daughter is 30yrs old. Every yr. I give her an Easter basket tailored to her age. This is my bond with her and to create memories when I’m gone. She just got married so he will be getting one also lol. He’s 40. Lol. And when the have kids they will too. I put razors, pads, body sprays but I never would have thought of a kit to go!! What a great idea! And she’s a flight attendant. She looks forward to the baskets. I’m going to use some of your ideas to take it up a notch. Your bad to the bone!!! Ty!!
My daughter just got her period today for the very first time and I'm going to assemble a to go bag for her. This is pretty much what I carry on the go except I didn't put chocolates in mine, but now I will and I'm sure my daughter will like that!
im soo happy for these videos!! i live mainly with my dad, and my sister doesn't really live at home anymore. so these really help me! i struggled with taking my book-bag to the bathroom (cause i mainly had teachers who didn't like people carrying bags) so my friends would stand around the bag while whoever needed pulled out whatever and hid in in their sleeve or pocked. it was either that or walking all the way across the school to get one from the nurse... again thank you !!!
Awww, why don't you share my channel with her. I love it when both mother and daughter can watch my videos. That can help them make communicating about puberty and girl things in general much easier. I do plan on dong a video that is geared towards mothers on How to Talk to Your Daughters about puberty, periods and sex.
Honestly everyone says it shouldn’t be awkward telling your mom you’ve started but like my mom just isn’t like that chill mom. She is chill but not that chill. If I had you as s mother you would be my best friend! Your girls are so lucky
You're so amazing. I'm sixteen so I make my kits myself but I would have so appreciated it if someone had had provided me with such an amazing way to deal with my period! You're kids are so lucky.
Thank you for the upload. I also prepare these for myself, guest and our young ladies in our church (my daughters are both out of state adults). I keep these everywhere (laughing). They're in the car, my desk at work, my purse, my briefcase, and several other places at home. I also include several disposable bags to our kits, it is more sanitary. Instead of the multiple package of wipes, we use the individual packages to clean our hands, etc prior to coming out of the stall. Good job, I pray that things will get better for your sweet little girls.
mstgracious1 You are so kind for preparing these kits for all those women. I hope things will get better for my girls also, it pains me to see them in so much pain during that time of the month. Thanks for watching.
this is kinda emberising but you know how most girls eat chocolate during there ya know well I HATEEEE chocolate I hate penut butter and I hate carmeal is that WERID?
currentlybeingtheamazingkim :D :D hi!!!!!!! OMFG sense you're a phandom search on Wattpad and search a helping hand the end is sad and i litterly cried Its so good
HouseOfAqua Thanks. That backpack has held up for quite some time now, she is going on year 3 carrying it to school. I just purchased the lunch bag this year as a xmas gift. It was about time for a new one...she had her previous one for 3 years also. Thanks for watching.
thank you veri keri for posting these videos - my daughter and I watched them together and they opened up dialect about this coming of age topic. We went to the store together and shopped for her period kit after watching this and it was a beautiful mother daughter moment i know we will treasure forever :) - Taylors mom
+Taylor Vlogs Woooohooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now that is what I like to hear!! I love it when both mother and daughter can experience this milestone together. I am sure she will treasure that moment forever. YOU ROCK!!
Your are probably the best mother! I wish my mother would do something like this for me, I start my period when I was 9 and had to learn about most of the stuff on my own! 💗💗
Love this! My 11 year old just started a couple months ago. 11 is so young and she is struggling with it. You would think she is the only person in the world this is happening to. Something like this will be very helpful. Not so embarrassing. Thank you for the tips!
Nicole Beitey Thanks! My girls started their cycles at a very young age also. I am glad that you enjoyed the video. Hope things will get better for your little one.
Nicole Venters She most likely will leave this kit in her locker and use in case of emergency. If she starts her cycle at home I am sure she will only carry a couple of pads in her bag. She will use the kit for those days she is caught off guard. I made one for me to keep in my car. I have been on on a roll making period kits...lol. Hope you had a Happy Monday!
This is an amazing idea! I just began tonight. (It's about 2 AM) I am an avid swimmer and it is my favorite sport. This is so useful to me as a swimmer. I'm defiantly going to recruit my mom to help me make one. I am the oldest daughter.
You are such a thoughtful Mama! I love this female survival kit. I remember putting together something like this when I was a young girl at school to keep in my locker. Wasn't classy as yours. Thanks for sharing this. I didn't know about the thermal menstrual thing. Sure going to look for these for my girls. God bless.
Aww you're a really good mom. I had to make my own kit.. It's not really just for a my period. It's for daily things. I have mouthwash, lotion, deodorant, pads,liners, hair ties, bobby pins, and a bunch of little things like that. You have me the idea of adding in panties and ziplock bag so thank you. I could never be so open with my mom like that lol
I always just kept a couple of pads and tampons in my locker and due to chronic headaches always had advil on me so I never really thought to put together a period kit in school but my best friend asked if I would talk to her daughter about periods and I think I'll definitely put on of these together for her.
I love these tips, I'm 20 and never thought of this so I'm going to start doing this and the home kit. I didn't even know that they made menstruation heat wraps I have to find those ASAP because I've had horrible periods that almost sent me to the hospital I get severe cramps, severe headaches, heat flashes, dizzy, light headed, shakey, and can't form sentences every now and then which only last 45 minutes tops. Can't wait to start my own period kit
chicagourl I just found out about the disposable heat wraps a few months ago. My kids absolutely love them. You should definitely give them a try. Have fun making your kit!!
Great idea. My 11 year old has just begun this "journey". Thankfully, we were together her 1st time. I have packed a few things for her in a small cosmetic bag but she has left it at home since she didn't think she'd need them. Great ideas Keri! ~Jess
Jessica Lynn Thanks. My girls were very young also when they started their "journey". I was so sad that I was out of town for work when my oldest got her period. My mom had to help her out. I was able to share the experience with my youngest daughter. Thanks for watching.
Oh My God i love your Chanel I started my period when I was 10 and I searched up period life hacks and you popped up and you really help me and now I'm not embarrassed about my period any more and I know some ways of how to sneak some tampons and pads in the bathroom and your a really good mom you rally are
Thank you for the ideas that I got for the period kit that I will be making for myself. I really just got the ides yesterday from you, and thought it was a really great idea and that I could have used it in the past. So THANK YOU!!!
Great job, and the advice of getting the regs./informing the school nurse is VIP. This idea is also good for just staying fresh. Thanks so much.. As always, job well done!
@margie Daniels, that's a great idea to make a fresh kit as well for everyday; especially on hot summer days when you're running errands and need a quick freshen up. Keri, maybe you could create one and share it with us if you have the extra time. :-)
Keri you are an awesome Mom to anticipate your daughters' needs and also teaching them to be prepared. I have two period kits and a wardrobe malfunction kit in my car. A girl can never be too prepared lol. After watching this video, I will make period kits in a bin and place one in each guest bathroom. Thanks for sharing!
In my wardrobe malfunction kit I have: Shout wipes, regular wipes (in case my shoes get dirty), a Tide to-go pen, lint roller, mini sewing kit, safety pins, small pair of scissors, and various adhesive strips. I also have a pair of neutral colored comfy flats and running shoes behind the passenger seat. What will you put in yours?
Thanks these are some great ideas. I haven't completely decided, but I will definitely be incorporating the comfy flats...such a great idea. Will be sure to keep you posted.
Once again awesome job. I love the mother that you are. It shows clearly you love your family. I am going to do this with my niece when she comes permanently to stay with me. As i always say i just love your channel.
kaf6154 Awwww, thanks for such a sweet encouraging comment. Good luck with raising your niece, what a fantastic aunt you are! Hope you had a Happy Monday.
Grainne Mallon Awwww thanks!! My daughter didn't even wait until she had her period before she ate the chocolate...it was gone the next day after I made the kit...lol. I am grateful that my children do appreciate me.
I was catching up on vids today and realized I hadn't watched this one. Called my 16 yr old up to watch. I have been trying for years to get her to carry a period kit but to no avail. She was always rushing to throw pads in her backpack. After seeing your vid, she agreed. She also wants to see a vid of your home kit. Thanks a lot!!!! Sometimes she sees me as trying to run her life but hearing the same thing from someone else now seems like a good idea!!!!! TEENS!!!!!!!!!😉
S Currie Isn't that always the case with teens?? They rather hear something coming from anyone else but their parents :) I am glad that she enjoyed the video and I will be getting the At Home Kit up soon. Take care!
Kerri thanks for sharing, what a brilliant idea . I have 3 daughters and I will be making this for my older two since the baby is 5 however I will live to see how you put together your home period kit. I will also be making the to go period kit for my daughter's girls scout cadette troop, thanks for the idea.
Monique Johnson You are so welcome. Oh how I miss the girl scouts. My daughter had an awesome troop. These would be a perfect project for them to put together. I will be sure to get the at home kit video out in the near future.
I wish my mom lived with me and was like you because I had to make my kit on my own and it was very embarrassing to ask for pads but I'm glad I can watch your videos for tips❤️❤️
I wish you were my Mom as a teenager, this is genius and so helpful. I have never seen the Thermacare heat wraps I will definitely look for them. Thanks for vlogging this subject!
I'm so thankful to go to an all girl school. Students here just confidently shout in the classroom (when the teacher's not around ofc) to ask for a pad. We have a school uniform and the pocket can actually fit a large pad, and it's a plaid dark red skirt.
esther reyes Awwww, thank you so much. Your comment made my heart smile. Please let me know if your mom makes you a period kit. Stayed tuned because I have a very special period video coming up very soon :)
Elizabeth shore Awww, thanks. So sad to hear that your mom screams and hits you. Hopefully the both of you can eventually get to a place where you can talk....not just about periods but anything. Thanks for watching.
I like this video ,I just found out last week I'm having a girl even though it would be a while that I will have to deal with this it's an idea I can put in place when that time come , It also got me in a mindset of being mother to a daughter.. making sure she will have what she needs when she away from me. This was a well needed topic to discuss and you did it tastefully, thank you
Andree Long Congratulations!! This has to be an exciting time in your life. I love raising my girls, the time goes by so quickly. They are blossoming into beautiful young ladies. Thanks for watching.
Ladies, I have created a period panty line called Tomies (Time Of Month + Panties = Tomies). It is a leak proof period panty with a pocket on the front for a disposable heating pad or you can store extra pads/tampons in the pocket. Please check out my website to learn more @t
Any child would be blessed to have you as a mother :*

What an awesome mom you are! This is awesome...saving the girls from some embarrassing moments. TERRIFIC!
AMATEUR DECORATING LIKE A PRO Thanks!

My mom did the same thing to me when I started my period and she doesn't talk to me about anything either :(
EssenceRose3 im sorry honestly I haven't got my period yet but one time my mom was like your might start your period in 5th grade and that is okay and she sad it all calm and cool so I THINK she might
This certainly beats the pad I kept in my sock as a teen. We use to wear plaid skirts and knee socks and I would put my pad in my sock...seriously a sock.

Veri Keri HAHA Your too Funny...My Mom sd she had to wear the same mid-evil contraption. Who knew periods could be so complicated? I'm glad I do not need any of this..The simple ole "tampon in the glove compartment of my car trick" is all I require! lol
kelly knowles Kelly coming from a VERY conservative/sometimes ridicules family. tampons were never even offered as a choice for me. Perhaps I still have some of that ridicules thinking because I never gave my daughter the option of a tampon either. Silly huh?!

Oh god.. xD😂😂😂
That's great 😂
oh my gawd 😨😱
I have similar story, I put pads in my lunch box and my "Friend" stole my lunch box. He looked inside the lunch box, (they were in a small package) he looked at them and read "Maxi pads". Assuming that meant for a heavy flow. We know that maxi is really just a brand name. I hate him anyways.
Lol I just stuff two in my pocket.
All the boys at my school know what it means when a girl brings a makeup bag in to the bathroom.
Jordan Eure me to -_-
***** if a girl is in class and asks to use the bathroom and has a makeup bag in their hand, they all whisper and stare at you and they will say "ohhh (name) is on their period!" or "are you on your period?"
In between classes I take my next classes binders with me, and the pouch just looks like a pencil case. And girls shouldn't judge eachother for period supplies.
A great solution is take a snack sized ziplock bag and put a few wipes it. You ca then take your wipes and pad/tampon and slide it into your bra or pocket so you don't have to bring the entire kit and people won't know
Well don't care what they think because a period is a natural thing. If I had to change my pad and I didn't have my makeup bag, I would just go with the pad on hand because the people need to learn how to not be immature about a very natural part of a woman's life
I made one for my daughter a couple of years ago and she didn't need it until yesterday. 😊 One of the things I did was have her "practice" using the sanitary napkin. I had her wear one (with wings) for a whole day and walk around with it so she could become accustomed to applying and wearing it. When the time finally came, she was soooo prepared!
I also made her a locker kit with all the essentials (lotion, hand sanitizer, portable brush, hair ties, safety pins, sewing kit, etc.). The makeup bag I put all the items in has a handle so she just hangs it from a hook in her locker.
Great video on something that a lot of people don't like to talk about. But it's life for us girls! Thank you for sharing, Keri!
Dianne de Las Casas That was such a great idea to have her practice before she actually started her cycle! Glad that she was prepared for when the time came. Good idea about hanging the locker kit on a hook in her locker. I will ask my girls if they would want one of these kits as well. Hope your weekend is off to a great start.
Thanks, Keri! Have a fantastic weekend! I'm having a birthday dinner party. I think you'd love my tablescape. Like you, I love to entertain and throw a good party. Are you on IG? If so, you can check me out at @AuthorDianneDLC.
I wish my mom was like you !
Same but I love my mom
Btw I am not saying you hate your mom
+Mya Gold I like how you had to clear that up 😂😂
+Cheshire Cat 😂
me to!
Good Morning Sunshine! Your such a super mom! I so needed that when I was their age. My stash is currently in my glove compartment lol.... I will be putting one of these together. Thanks Veri Keri!
Bemyguestwithdenise Denise Cooper You and me both! I put me a little stash together to keep as part of my car kit organization. Hope you had a Happy Monday!
Omg thank you i am 11 and started a few weeks ago i was on line looking for ideas to bring to school i saw this and I thought it was amazing it helped so much thank you it also helped me have the courage to tell my mom i started 😘😘😘
Savanna And mady Awwww. this comment just warms my heart. I am so happy that my videos helped you to be able to talk to your mother. cyber hi-five :) Have a wonderful weekend darling.
you're such a sweet mom for doing all this for your daughter! she's so lucky
Love love love!! Great job, i put a basket together for my neices, with reading literature, and spa - like items. I turn this time into TLC time, so mine also included facial masks, scrubs, candles, manicure items and fluffy socks ;) turning one of the most confusing emotional times into a celebration . Cudos for this vid!!
finesweet01 Thanks. What a wonderful auntie you are!! Nothing beats a little pampering no matter what the age. Hope your week is off to a great start.
H2O2- plain old hydrogen peroxide gets blood out of everything. Great vid, and you are a GREAT MOM!!!!!
You get the mom of the year award form me!!!! LOVE your creativity...I wish that I had these ideas around when my girls were in school. I will pass these ideas along to the youth group at my church. Thank you for such inspiring ideas and information. Your family is blessed : )
Michele Thom Awww, thanks! I feel as though I am the one that is blessed :) Take care.
The carefree panty liners in his video are the BEST I'm wearing one right now, and I'm still in the first few months of my period and I can't feel the panty liner at all. They are super comfortable :D
Dancerific Yes they are :)
Hi, i'm 14 and I want to say that judging by your user name, you dance, and I want to say that dancing with a tampon is so much more comfortable that with pads, they also don't stick out of my leotard, so its a bit more discrete
Sparkyest Dog No way tampons are my worst fear ^.^ I'll be fine with liners, and I just wear a leotard for ballet techniquee and shorts or leggings and a tank top or sports bra so I'll be fine for the most of it xD
Obviously your not Hong to feel a pantie liner they are liners not pads and even pads you cant feel sometimes
I were the carefree panty liners as well when my flow is light. I started recently I'm 11 and I started on July 30 2017
I love that you do this for your daughters. They are so fortunate to have such a caring mom. In my adult period pouch, I also keep a tiny swing kit with extra buttons and safety pins.
Keri, you'd doing such a wonderful job. I will definitely watch this with my niece and take some notes for myself. Blessings
Awww thanks. I love hearing comments from the adults. I will be sharing some new puberty, hygiene, period and talking to your kids about sex videos soon so stay tuned :)
I am 25 with a 3 yr old and a 13 yr old step daughter. my mother never talked or helped me with anything to do with my period! I am totally doing this for my girls!! thank you so much!!!
I'm 17. I got my period when I was 12. And I prefer tampons. I started using them around 13-14 and I've had to buy them myself. I buy pamprin for myself and my mom buys for herself. I really wish my mom was as open to talking about it.
I'm sorry that she's more open to talk about it :( Why won't she buy it for you?
What a lovely Mommy you are ...I almost cried at this. You thought of everything to ensure you little girls have a smooth as possible cycle. Love you heart!
Zannnnah Awwwww......thanks so much for this lovely comment!
+VeriKeri Your videos help a lot because I am the only person who has my period still and my family doesn't talk much about it. I am 11 and buy my own period products (With my parents money). My "Talk" was placing a pad on. You are so helpful!
I just wanted to tell you that I think it is so great that you do this for your daughters and that you put so much thought into it for them and try to help them out as much as you can. You really are such a great mother.
Kaitlyn Rose Awww, thanks for such a sweet comment.
Very, very, very smart idea! I wish I had thought of doing that when my daughter and older nieces we're young school age. I have another niece who just turned 13 who I am going to do this for. I am going to make one for myself as well! Right now I have all of my TOM accessories in different places in my purse and work bag. I'm going to make a cute kit and have them all conveniently in one place. Would love to see your period kit/storage you have for the home. Thanks for all of your awesome videos!
ultimatecouponlady What a sweet auntie! Will be sure to get that at home kit up soon.
I love how you are so open about all of this!! I also love how you use all proper terms and don't make girls and women (and your daughters) feel embarrassed about having their period! Lx
Keri your awesome I wish you were in my family
Awwww....you are part of my virtual family :)
Isabella Anderson me too you talk about your period like everyone should!
And I love you back!!!!
Veri Keri oh hi keep making period vids cuz it definitely helps cuz ya know I am in 6th grade so...
❤️️❤️️❤️️❤️️
Alyssa Leep cause
I have watched both videos & they are awesome. My daughter is grown bu I will be sending her these videos. She has a 4 yr old daughter. I realize that time is a little ways off but time flies & it will be in the back of her mind.
me and my mom are gonna make one like yours together! thanks for the idea!
I wish my mom would make one with me. I made my own tho.
thats ok i know the stuggels with parents
I made my own alone too, my Mom cares i just wanted to make it myself.
Such a good idea! My daughter is 30yrs old. Every yr. I give her an Easter basket tailored to her age. This is my bond with her and to create memories when I’m gone. She just got married so he will be getting one also lol. He’s 40. Lol. And when the have kids they will too. I put razors, pads, body sprays but I never would have thought of a kit to go!! What a great idea! And she’s a flight attendant. She looks forward to the baskets. I’m going to use some of your ideas to take it up a notch. Your bad to the bone!!! Ty!!
Oh my goodness😍😍😍 can you make me one please
My daughter just got her period today for the very first time and I'm going to assemble a to go bag for her. This is pretty much what I carry on the go except I didn't put chocolates in mine, but now I will and I'm sure my daughter will like that!
Can you do a Video of a Period kit for Traveling for a long period of time? I am going for a long trip and I wanna know what to put in there.
I wish you were my mother. If you were my mom then I would talk to you about everything but with my mom I just can't. You're an amazing mother!!!
Sarah Gent Awwww, what a sweet comment. What do you think it is that prevents you from talking to your mom?
you're such a caring mum 👍👍
Awww, thanks!
im soo happy for these videos!! i live mainly with my dad, and my sister doesn't really live at home anymore. so these really help me!
i struggled with taking my book-bag to the bathroom (cause i mainly had teachers who didn't like people carrying bags) so my friends would stand around the bag while whoever needed pulled out whatever and hid in in their sleeve or pocked. it was either that or walking all the way across the school to get one from the nurse...
again thank you !!!
I wish i had a mom like keri
Awwww, this message warms my heart. Stay tuned because I have some new period and puberty videos and giveaways coming up this summer.
+Veri Keri I am weirdly too excited for those videos :)
I wish my mom watched Kari
Awww, why don't you share my channel with her. I love it when both mother and daughter can watch my videos. That can help them make communicating about puberty and girl things in general much easier. I do plan on dong a video that is geared towards mothers on How to Talk to Your Daughters about puberty, periods and sex.
Thank you for your advice I'll show her your Chantal when she comes home
I was given some money and UA-cam when I was a kid.
When my kid is older I'm actually going to talk to them.
You are such a good mum.
Great video, but I was lmao when she said sanitary napkins instead of pads. I just never heard anyone call a pad that😂😂
Thanks....old folks say sanitary napkins....lol. I have to step up my game and learn the lingo of today's youth :)
my whole country still calls it napkins, im used to saying pads but i say "diapers" when talking to my mom. 😂
Honestly everyone says it shouldn’t be awkward telling your mom you’ve started but like my mom just isn’t like that chill mom. She is chill but not that chill. If I had you as s mother you would be my best friend! Your girls are so lucky
Im thankful I have painless periods :) :D
Me too !!
+Sophie Patton same!
Same. Very grateful
me too
It's so nice of you to go the extra mile for your girls! thanks so much for the advice, Keri!
please be my mom..please 😂😭💖💖
Awww :)
Like fr lol you seem cool af..my mom don't even do this haha thank you for the tips 😙❤❤
Veri Keri your are soooo positive about periods but ever girl goes through this it is a nature of a girl honey!!
I know you say your not a great mum for making kits for your girls but the chocolate you add just shows how much you care 💕
+Isabelle Booth Awww :)
Haha it's so awkward not having a mom to help me with this stuff.
Same I live with my dad
My dad and mom switch off so I hope I get mine at my moms
Same! I live with my dad and I got my period over there and basically I was moody and he got it right away!
You're so amazing. I'm sixteen so I make my kits myself but I would have so appreciated it if someone had had provided me with such an amazing way to deal with my period! You're kids are so lucky.
Awww thanks!
Speaking of menstrual cramps...oooowwww!!!!
Thank you for the upload. I also prepare these for myself, guest and our young ladies in our church (my daughters are both out of state adults). I keep these everywhere (laughing). They're in the car, my desk at work, my purse, my briefcase, and several other places at home. I also include several disposable bags to our kits, it is more sanitary. Instead of the multiple package of wipes, we use the individual packages to clean our hands, etc prior to coming out of the stall. Good job, I pray that things will get better for your sweet little girls.
mstgracious1 You are so kind for preparing these kits for all those women. I hope things will get better for my girls also, it pains me to see them in so much pain during that time of the month. Thanks for watching.
I know. You're welcome, it is my pleasure to watch.
this is kinda emberising but you know how most girls eat chocolate during there ya know well I HATEEEE chocolate I hate penut butter and I hate carmeal is that WERID?
PHANDOM HIII
currentlybeingtheamazingkim :D :D hi!!!!!!! OMFG sense you're a phandom search on Wattpad and search a helping hand the end is sad and i litterly cried Its so good
Wonderful idea Keri! I love your daughter's lunch bag and backpack.
HouseOfAqua Thanks. That backpack has held up for quite some time now, she is going on year 3 carrying it to school. I just purchased the lunch bag this year as a xmas gift. It was about time for a new one...she had her previous one for 3 years also. Thanks for watching.
thank you veri keri for posting these videos - my daughter and I watched them together and they opened up dialect about this coming of age topic. We went to the store together and shopped for her period kit after watching this and it was a beautiful mother daughter moment i know we will treasure forever :)
- Taylors mom
+Taylor Vlogs Woooohooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now that is what I like to hear!! I love it when both mother and daughter can experience this milestone together. I am sure she will treasure that moment forever. YOU ROCK!!
Your are probably the best mother! I wish my mother would do something like this for me, I start my period when I was 9 and had to learn about most of the stuff on my own! 💗💗
Love this! My 11 year old just started a couple months ago. 11 is so young and she is struggling with it. You would think she is the only person in the world this is happening to. Something like this will be very helpful. Not so embarrassing. Thank you for the tips!
Nicole Beitey Thanks! My girls started their cycles at a very young age also. I am glad that you enjoyed the video. Hope things will get better for your little one.
You are one thoughtful mom. Your girls are blessed to have you.
Susan Felber Thanks! I think I am the one that is blessed :)
That is so nice of you my mom just buys me tampons and I just throw them in my bag. I wish I was that organized!
I usually just keep a few "lady items" in the zippered part of my purses but this idea is much nicer. Thanks for sharing!
Nicole Venters She most likely will leave this kit in her locker and use in case of emergency. If she starts her cycle at home I am sure she will only carry a couple of pads in her bag. She will use the kit for those days she is caught off guard. I made one for me to keep in my car. I have been on on a roll making period kits...lol. Hope you had a Happy Monday!
Wow Teri! You are such an organized mom!
Love this! This will be perfect for my daughter and myself. I would love to see your kit you have at home.
Jacqueline Greenberg Thanks. Will be sure to do a video on the at home kit.
This is an amazing idea! I just began tonight. (It's about 2 AM) I am an avid swimmer and it is my favorite sport. This is so useful to me as a swimmer. I'm defiantly going to recruit my mom to help me make one. I am the oldest daughter.
You are such a thoughtful Mama! I love this female survival kit. I remember putting together something like this when I was a young girl at school to keep in my locker. Wasn't classy as yours. Thanks for sharing this. I didn't know about the thermal menstrual thing. Sure going to look for these for my girls. God bless.
debrtx Thanks! I just recently stumbled upon the thermal menstrual packs while strolling down the aisle of CVS waiting on a prescription to be filled.
awww thats such a cute idea. you are such a caring mother. the efforts you goto to help them have a easy cycle
Aww you're a really good mom. I had to make my own kit.. It's not really just for a my period. It's for daily things. I have mouthwash, lotion, deodorant, pads,liners, hair ties, bobby pins, and a bunch of little things like that. You have me the idea of adding in panties and ziplock bag so thank you. I could never be so open with my mom like that lol
I always just kept a couple of pads and tampons in my locker and due to chronic headaches always had advil on me so I never really thought to put together a period kit in school but my best friend asked if I would talk to her daughter about periods and I think I'll definitely put on of these together for her.
I love these tips, I'm 20 and never thought of this so I'm going to start doing this and the home kit. I didn't even know that they made menstruation heat wraps I have to find those ASAP because I've had horrible periods that almost sent me to the hospital I get severe cramps, severe headaches, heat flashes, dizzy, light headed, shakey, and can't form sentences every now and then which only last 45 minutes tops. Can't wait to start my own period kit
chicagourl I just found out about the disposable heat wraps a few months ago. My kids absolutely love them. You should definitely give them a try. Have fun making your kit!!
Great idea. My 11 year old has just begun this "journey". Thankfully, we were together her 1st time. I have packed a few things for her in a small cosmetic bag but she has left it at home since she didn't think she'd need them. Great ideas Keri! ~Jess
Jessica Lynn Thanks. My girls were very young also when they started their "journey". I was so sad that I was out of town for work when my oldest got her period. My mom had to help her out. I was able to share the experience with my youngest daughter. Thanks for watching.
Oh My God i love your Chanel I started my period when I was 10 and I searched up period life hacks and you popped up and you really help me and now I'm not embarrassed about my period any more and I know some ways of how to sneak some tampons and pads in the bathroom and your a really good mom you rally are
You are literally the best mom ever omg definitely doing this for my daughter when I'm older
Lucyy Awww, thanks!
Such a supermom! I hope to be like you whenever I have kids
Thank you for the ideas that I got for the period kit that I will be making for myself. I really just got the ides yesterday from you, and thought it was a really great idea and that I could have used it in the past. So THANK YOU!!!
I love how you match and disguised it
I just started my period today and this Is the only video that I could understand and the rest of your period videos are so helpful thanks Keri 😄
Great job, and the advice of getting the regs./informing the school nurse is VIP. This idea is also good for just staying fresh. Thanks so much.. As always, job well done!
MARGIE DANIELS Thanks! I am glad that you liked the video. Happy Monday!
@margie Daniels, that's a great idea to make a fresh kit as well for everyday; especially on hot summer days when you're running errands and need a quick freshen up. Keri, maybe you could create one and share it with us if you have the extra time. :-)
This is such a good idea! Your girls are so lucky to have such a caring mom:)
Keri you are an awesome Mom to anticipate your daughters' needs and also teaching them to be prepared. I have two period kits and a wardrobe malfunction kit in my car. A girl can never be too prepared lol. After watching this video, I will make period kits in a bin and place one in each guest bathroom.
Thanks for sharing!
Madam W Thanks! I am working on a malfunction kit for part of my car organization. What do you have in the malfunction kit?
In my wardrobe malfunction kit I have: Shout wipes, regular wipes (in case my shoes get dirty), a Tide to-go pen, lint roller, mini sewing kit, safety pins, small pair of scissors, and various adhesive strips. I also have a pair of neutral colored comfy flats and running shoes behind the passenger seat. What will you put in yours?
Thanks these are some great ideas. I haven't completely decided, but I will definitely be incorporating the comfy flats...such a great idea. Will be sure to keep you posted.
Awesome idea! Would love to have had one of these in my teen years
Once again awesome job. I love the mother that you are. It shows clearly you love your family. I am going to do this with my niece when she comes permanently to stay with me. As i always say i just love your channel.
kaf6154 Awwww, thanks for such a sweet encouraging comment. Good luck with raising your niece, what a fantastic aunt you are! Hope you had a Happy Monday.
you are a great mom, I know that if I found chocolate in my period kit I would feel so much better! I hope your kids appreciate you x
Grainne Mallon Awwww thanks!! My daughter didn't even wait until she had her period before she ate the chocolate...it was gone the next day after I made the kit...lol. I am grateful that my children do appreciate me.
I was catching up on vids today and realized I hadn't watched this one. Called my 16 yr old up to watch. I have been trying for years to get her to carry a period kit but to no avail. She was always rushing to throw pads in her backpack. After seeing your vid, she agreed. She also wants to see a vid of your home kit. Thanks a lot!!!! Sometimes she sees me as trying to run her life but hearing the same thing from someone else now seems like a good idea!!!!! TEENS!!!!!!!!!😉
S Currie Isn't that always the case with teens?? They rather hear something coming from anyone else but their parents :) I am glad that she enjoyed the video and I will be getting the At Home Kit up soon. Take care!
Kerri thanks for sharing, what a brilliant idea . I have 3 daughters and I will be making this for my older two since the baby is 5 however I will live to see how you put together your home period kit. I will also be making the to go period kit for my daughter's girls scout cadette troop, thanks for the idea.
Monique Johnson You are so welcome. Oh how I miss the girl scouts. My daughter had an awesome troop. These would be a perfect project for them to put together. I will be sure to get the at home kit video out in the near future.
I wish my mom lived with me and was like you because I had to make my kit on my own and it was very embarrassing to ask for pads but I'm glad I can watch your videos for tips❤️❤️
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing. I think this will really help me when I go back to school and have to make a period kit to keep in my book bag.
When I was younger my mama wasnt anything like this. I wish she was more like you in this subject
I wish you were my Mom as a teenager, this is genius and so helpful. I have never seen the Thermacare heat wraps I will definitely look for them. Thanks for vlogging this subject!
Lillian Lee Awww thanks.
Why doesn't this lady have more subscribers? She deserves more
thanks for all the tips hopefully all the tips and kits you have made will help me through my puberty
I'm so thankful to go to an all girl school. Students here just confidently shout in the classroom (when the teacher's not around ofc) to ask for a pad. We have a school uniform and the pocket can actually fit a large pad, and it's a plaid dark red skirt.
how thoughtful, wow, wish my mom would have put this together for me but I was tween in1977. But you are a real sweet mom. thanks for sharing
Alberta Dan Awww, thanks for such a sweet comment :)
Wow! Wish I done this when I was a teen. Great info to pass on to my grand daughters when their time comes. Love it!
Lydia Torrence Thanks! I am glad that you enjoyed the video.
Great idea!! Love the thoughtful "mommy" added touches (candy)!! Going to make a few myself, thanks for the inspiration.
Nichcole Petersen Thanks for the lovely comment.
You are a Very Good Mom in my opinion because you have everything in mind, I think that if my mom sees this she will really apreciate the idea
esther reyes Awwww, thank you so much. Your comment made my heart smile. Please let me know if your mom makes you a period kit. Stayed tuned because I have a very special period video coming up very soon :)
Veri Keri Ok I will keep track on your channel
I wish that I was comfortable enough to talk to my mom about this stuff XD You help me so much! Thank you!!!
Your the best mother in the world , mine just screens at and hits me , it's soo hard to talk to her about these things, wish you were my mom
Elizabeth shore Awww, thanks. So sad to hear that your mom screams and hits you. Hopefully the both of you can eventually get to a place where you can talk....not just about periods but anything. Thanks for watching.
Im turning 15 soon and wow this was actually educational. I didn't even know half of these things existed.
Candy x3 Cane ;3 I am so glad that you found this video helpful :)
I can suggest if you don't get your period but use liners and poise liners you can also put those in side instead of tampons and pads.
They both are so lucky to have you! Love this video I will defiantly make one of these for school! ❤️
Great idea, you're so organized!
***** Thanks. The jury is still out on my organization skills :) Thanks for watching.
Such a great idea, and so thoughtful! Wish I had one back in the Stone Ages when I was in high school.
jennyleigh63 Thanks! Wish I had one too :)
I like this video ,I just found out last week I'm having a girl even though it would be a while that I will have to deal with this it's an idea I can put in place when that time come , It also got me in a mindset of being mother to a daughter.. making sure she will have what she needs when she away from me. This was a well needed topic to discuss and you did it tastefully, thank you
Andree Long Congratulations!! This has to be an exciting time in your life. I love raising my girls, the time goes by so quickly. They are blossoming into beautiful young ladies. Thanks for watching.
