For kids over 2, you can use the kids version of the Benadryl stick! A plain old ice pack wrapped in a tea towel is always nice, too.
Also, for prevention, maybe consider the Buzz Patch! Mosquitoes love me so I use them myself every summer. They're just stickers with essential oils that you stick to clothing (don't worry, no residue left behind) – all natural and safe for mosquito targets of all ages 😊

The dollar store sells citronella bracelets and I hang them on my ankles or just around, they smell super nice and do a pretty good job imo, although I dont know about helping the bites.. I'm super worried about that happening to my baby girl.. but shes only gone out mid day so far
