Thermometers Advice

[u/FlyingAquaDog]

Hello everyone!

I just had some quick questions. Does anybody know how effective/reliable digital thermometer are? Also, can anyone recommend a good quality/accurate one, ideally one that’s safe to use on small children?

My parents are usually taking care of my nephews and they mentioned that they’d like to have a digital thermometer on hand just in case because the kids don’t really like the under the tongue ones. Especially for when the kids seem like they aren’t looking/feeling well, i think it would help put my parents at ease a bit.

If you guys can help, I’d greatly appreciate it, thank you!
