I don't have children, but I came to know this product when preparing an emergency kit for a long trip last year, just because the mini-tube size was perfect, and it was just 2 bucks. It turned out that I got a rash while travelling and I used it, and I was very pleased with the results. At my return, I bought a big jar, which I still have at home. I have used Sudocream for minor burns in the kitchen, sunburn areas when I forgot to apply sun-block in summer, heat rashes of various nature or skin irritation of different sorts.
The cream is actually an ointment, very thick and emollient, so it soothes and heals fast, and it is one of my top products for dermatitis.
However, this is not a glamourous cream. The smell is OK. Zinc being the main ingredient, you have to be careful when you apply it, as it can stain your clothes. Great to apply at home, before going to sleep or when wearing your fav daggy clothing.
A great product overall that does the job and is good priced.
