Can anybody recommend an alert bracelet for a 2yr old with a nut allergy? The only ones I can find seem to be quite big or possibly a choking hazard. Thanks.

[http://www.mediband.com.au/ [Mediband]] might be the Australian one Babybarrister meant.

We got these ones. I ended up 'designing' my own and you had to order a certain number. We go through one about every nine months I would say before they break.

My dd wears hers all of the time so I suppose the rubber weakens eventually. They are really good and nice and small, comfortable and do the job.

I've got these ones made by KidsAware.

They are adjustable and the strap is fabric so not uncomfortable for little ones.
