hi, as your children are having eczema, these blisters with rash is mostly a form of eczema which may have secondarily got infected. I suggest you a hypo allergic body wash like cetaphil or sebamed along with a topical antibiotic for the infected rash. if the rash is spreading go for oral antibiotic. after the blisters come down apply emollients ad lib on their skin especially the flexure areas. hope this answer helps you and take care.
