so, my long-time faaaavorite makers of essential oils, rocky mountain oils, have come out with a kids line!!! ever since my last post on our three favorite oils for summer, i’ve been anxiously awaiting a chance to try out a few of these little roll-on bottles of goodness for my little babes!
let’s be honest, i spend sooo much time fretting over my family members. i mean, you should see my google history… [um, or not!!] but truly, since any issue in our family is first treated with natural remedies, my first thought is always, “what oils can we slather on this?!?!?” although, once you have young ones in the mix, you have to pay extra-close attention to what oils are appropriate for their tiny bodies! which means more research and special little concoctions of whatever you have on hand whipped up just for them.
i’ve done all of that so much in the past, and that’s why i was sooooo excited when RMO filled me in on their upcoming plans to release a line of safe, pre-blended oils for children!! already in roller bottles and everything! haaaallelujah. best idea ever.
anyway, those bunniebuns of mine, they have loved using these oils!! and i love not freaking out about which bottle they’ve gotten their little hands on when they want to hold them or do it themselves. so, about two weeks ago, on an average little tuesday, we decided to document each time we used the kids oils that day…
first!! we used ouchie on rocco’s booboos. because having a little boy means constant scrapes, bonks, and bruises!! no, really. it’s all the time. i figure it must be pure instinct for men to walk around with battle wounds, yes? as i type this he fell over on the floor, looked up at me, and laughed. haha!
then!! later that day, we rolled on immunity before heading to maddalena’s dance class! we were cracking up letting rocco roll the oils on maddalena’s back and he was SO proud of himself for doing it so well!! and he was quite thorough! this moment completely made my day. they were so happily laughing together and those are just the very, very best moments. also, i love that this blend is completely safe for them to use and handle! immunity blends are my go-to for so many things, but there just aren’t very many that are safe for the little ones to mess with. it’s such a relief to have this on hand!
aaand, that night we rolled the counting sheep blend onto those babes… heaven knows they need it! and oh look at my sweeties. they melt me!! anyway, we all love the way it smells. so relaxing! and a fun part of the bedtime routine when they can learn to do it themselves, too!
so basically… we love these! anything to bring relief to a parent’s constantly worrying mind, right? you can bet we haven’t even been leaving the house without them in my bag! thank you, rocky mountain oils!
[and just for total disclosure: RMO sent me these oils because they are awesome. 🙂 but i was not paid, and i surely wouldn’t share if this wasn’t 1,000% one of my favorite topics for the last umm, nearly 15 years. wow. haha!]
xoxo!
Omg omg!!! I am so excited to hear about these! I worry about what is safe to use on my littles allll the time! How much is to use, blend etc. This makes it soooo much easier! Cant wait to try!
yes i worry about that stuff every time!!! it's so nice to just have these!! and the little ones both LOVE the way they smell!!
i'm so glad you posted about this brittany! i was actually about to e-mail you beforehand asking if you knew of good oils for babes 🙂 I only have used peppermint and lavender with cici before, and this is great to have the blends for immunity and sleep! can't wait to try these 🙂

I didn't realize they had these how fantastic! We have been having real bed time issues with Letty I bet the counting sheep one would be great!
anything that could possibly help, right?! we struggle with sleep so so much!
OOOOOH! I need to try these!! I'm a HUGE fan of essential oils! Thanks for sharing! (And your kids are sooo cute!)
