Just love the frio!  Can't live without it now that the kids are older!  I have 2 sizes...the smaller one just barely fits 2 of the new-shaped epis. The larger one I have though fits 3 of the new epis.  I can't say what size they actually are.  You can call and talk to someone at the company - they are helpful.  Realize that they swell up when you wet them and this leaves less room for the actual epi.  Brownie

I'd like to find the one that fits 2. If you happen to remember what the size is, please let me know. I have the extra large and I can easily fit 2 epis with room to spare but it makes dd's purse very  heavy.

frio's are awesome! We ordered the duo for two epi jrs and the are a tight fight so I'd go with the large. I just talked gingham today and they said the newly designed epis don't as good

Thanks, all.   
I am off to see what a frio is?

I kept the epi in the outer pocket of the cooler.

   CMDeux,    you are right - I KNOW we must carry the pen and I do NOT want to fall into a very dangerous habit of not having the pen.  Thank you. 

Thanks, all!

In the summer we use a Frio to keep them cool.  I put the epi's in a ziplock, and then put the Frio overtop of them, then stick it into his epi carrier and it works perfectly.  I have a waterproof carrier that I can stick it all in if we have to take it into the water.

In the winter he wears his epi carrier under his snowpants when sledding or playing in the snow.

We have a cooler bag with an outer pocket that we keep the ice in.

We have an insulated cooler bag. If the temps are really high and we're going to be out for a while, I will wrap an ice pack in a towel and throw it in the bottom.

(Have to be careful - also don't want to FREEZE those puppies!)

You are not over thinking it.  These are the types of things you must think through, otherwise, you get blasse and don't bring the epi-pen.

For ski racing, I suggest a waist carrier, which can be worn under her coat.  Her body heat should keep it warm enough. 

For the beach, some people put it in the cooler.  There are also water-proof carriers available (though neither my son nor I wear our carriers while actually swimming).  I usually wrap an epi-pen in a plastic bag and put it in my waist carrier while walking the beach hunting for shells.  Since my son is allergic to insects, we have to have an epi with us while doing that, and he was little and tripped a lot on the beach, so I carried the epi-pen there.

Others may have better ideas.
