Ok, so we’ve already gone over which essential oils are safe for kids and which aren’t—but what are some of the best ways to use essential oils for your kids?
The very best way to use essential oils for your kids is to make sure you’re using oils (and synergies) developed just for them. You don’t have to guess, because it’s all 100% safe! If you want to get started right away, we’ve already done the hard work for you with our KidSafe® oils selection.
Use Nighty Night or Sweet Slumber to aid with bedtime restlessness.
To help prevent restlessness, diffuse Nighty Night in your child’s room about 15 minutes before they head to bed. (True story, I tried this on my son who has the worst time settling down for bed, and it works like a charm!)
Diffuse Calming the Child to help with focus.
Calming the Child can be added to an aromatherapy inhaler or diffuser when your child needs to find some calm, and A+ Attention helps your child stay on-task during homework time.
Help heal owies with Better Than Kisses
After washing your child’s owie with soap and water, dilute Better than Kisses to 4-5% in Coconut Fractionated Carrier Oil and apply to the scrape or sting to aid healing.
And remember, if you ever have questions about proper aromatherapy and essential oils use for kids, please feel free to contact us!
