Kids Ingredients:

Please Note: For children, the recipe is different. Eucalyptus and Peppermint contain a constituent called 1.8 cineole. Too much can act negatively on the temperature receptors of the lungs and may cause slowed breathing, so they are avoided.

1 drop Lavender Essential Oil

1 drop Frankincense Essential Oil

2 drops Cedarwood Essential Oil

I typically make batches as needed so that the essential oils maintain their potency.
