Back to School’s Best Friends: Plants with Power

Get out the chalkboard and sharpen your pencils. It’s Back to School! Those words evoke such different feelings for everyone involved: teachers sigh, students swoon, and some moms cheer (or cry), as they send their little ones off to school!

PlantsPowerPurpose.com promises to pack in the #PlantsPower, to bring you some natural and plant-based methods to deal with “all the feels” that this season brings!

We will be posting some planting activities, fall crafts / adventure, and more! In this post, we will provide some helpful back to school essential oil products that can help make this time of year, one of health, wellness and happiness.

Here Are Some Back to School Essentials that Aren’t on the Supply List.

SAFETY GUIDELINES

Please keep in mind the decision to use essential oils is a personal decision and one that should be researched. Each thing that we place on and in our children and ourselves should be researched. So, as we share some awesome tips tonight, please keep in mind it is up to you to research the individual oils and make sure they are right for your family as well.

Discuss your options with your medical professional to make sure essential oils are safe given any other health concerns for your family, including prescription and over the counter medications. Safety and education is a big part of how we share our love of essential oils, and these bottles of goodness pack a powerful punch, remember to treat them as such. Keep them locked in a cabinet and out of reach of children. Only allow children to use essential oils in a supervised setting. Make sure to use a dilution chart when using essential oils on children and starting with single oils and working into more than one oil or blends is a good approach. When in doubt – dilute more. You can always make it stronger. Also, kids have a smaller body surface area, so 1 drop applied to kids is going to be stronger than 1 drop applied to an adult. Please review Young Living’s safety guidelines before using essential oils on yourself and children.

DILUTION RATIOS:
Also, be sure to follow proper dilution guidelines for your child. The KidScents line is pre-diluted for age 2 and up, but as with any of the essential oils, make sure to dilute further if skin is more sensitive.
For a 10mL roller bottle (the ones we will be discussing during this event), the dilutions we prefer are as follows:
For ages 2-6 years old, 3-6 drops total of essential oils, fill to top with carrier of choice
For ages 6-15 years old, 4-9 drops of essential oils, fill to top with carrier of choice
