What is the best kids thermometer?
I have a 2 month old and a 2 year old and am looking for something to replace our current, super slow, oral thermometer. Both kids are big movers so I need something accurate and quick. I spent $30 on a temporal one but it can give readings that vary as much as 3 degrees. I'll get 2 separate thermometers if needed but can anyone suggest some that have worked well for them for these ages?

We have a digital thermometer made by Vicks that can take temps really quickly. It takes usually less than 30 seconds under the arm (axillary). On the package it says 8 seconds, but that's for oral, which yours can't do yet. It does need thermometer covers, but I don't use them for underarm temps.

I have an ear themometer and i love it. It just takes a few seconds and it's done. My daughter would never sit still long enough to let me take it orally or under the armpit. The ear is so easy!

I love the forehead thermometer. You can get one at wal-mart for $30.00. They are easy to use, and extremely quick.
