Kid (and Mom!) Approved Oils + Supplements

A lot of questions come up when it comes to the safe use of essential oils on and around kids. doTERRA launched their kid collection and I dove in to the products to see what they were all about. I love the kits and think they are a great way to introduce your kids to essential oils. You can tell that they are formulated with kids in mind and the colourful packaging and roll-on tops make them easy and fun! Don't be surprised if you find yourself using them as well!

(Note: These are to be used with adult supervision and are not recommended for children under the age of 3.)

The Kid's Oil Collection comes with seven kid-friendly blends that help them learn how to safely apply their oils to their tummies, hands, head, and heart. Plus, the roller balls are easy to bring with you on-the-go - just throw them in your bag!

I like pairing the oil application with affirmations. It's so important for our children to be able to identify and talk about their feelings, and this is a step in the right direction for a healthy mind, body, and heart.

Steady™ Grounding Blend helps balance mood and soothe upset feelings when emotions seem close to the surface. As a parent, you notice when your child seems to be extra sensitive. Sometimes, this means they need a long nap, an extra snuggle, or some one-on-one time. You can help your child feel more calm and balanced with Steady. This blend combines essential oils of Amyris Wood, Balsam Fir, Coriander, and Magnolia with Fractionated Coconut Oil.

Together, these oils combine in Steady to evoke calm and balanced feelings. Apply Steady on the bottom of the feet, to wrists, or to the back of the neck to promote feelings of calmness and steady the emotions.

Tamer contains Spearmint, Peppermint, and Ginger, all known for their ability to ease the effects of motion sickness and stomach upset when inhaled or applied topically.

They also come with these cute little cards that help them learn how to use their oils.
