Hi! Here's the story of how Whoopies came to be:
While we were away at summer camp, we caught a bad cough. When we got home we went to the doctor, and she tested us for many things, including Pertussis, or Whooping Cough. Days went by, and we felt pretty good...except for when we coughed and coughed really badly! After each coughing fit we were exhausted and had a sore throat. Pertussis, or Whooping Cough can only be detected if it is caught early in the first couple of weeks, and the test can take up to two more weeks to show a result. We were lucky that our test only took 8 days to show positive results. Home is where we had to stay for 5 days while we took our antibiotics. Whooping Cough is very contagious!
Bottle cap crafts kept us very busy....we had so much fun creating all different kinds! Whoopies were born, and now we want to use them to remind you keep up on your vaccines.
