It’s next to impossible to turn on the television or flip through a magazine without seeing something about the greening of America. From biodegradable plastics to organic vegetables, we’re bombarded by the growing need for environmental protection. Defending Mother Nature is an important goal, and new findings show the primary motivation for going green is the impact it will have on our children’s futures.
Acording to a May 2008 article in TIME magazine, kids are the primary reason adults go green*, and with cold and flu season almost upon us, there are many opportunities to choose green alternative for our little ones. Young Living has several all-natural products that cater to kids and can help fight winter germs, maintain overall health, and promote environmental etchics. From the old favorites ~ Thieves® and Ki
dScents® ~ to the brand new Breathe Again Roll-On®, Young Living can help you nurture with nature!
In the September/October 2008 issue of Mothering magazine, editor Candace Walsh was featured describing Thieves oil blend as “Another essential-oil goodie: Young Living’s Thieves®, a blend of cloves, rosemary and more that protects the wearer from most airborne bacteria.” This proprietary Young Living blend is a mixture of clove, lemon, cinnamon bark, Eucalyptus radiata, and rosemary essential oils, and has proven effective against most forms of airborne bacteria and mold.
Protect your little ones from bugs by diffusing Thieves throughout your home. The warm seasonal aroma is pleasing to the senses, adds an extra layer of protection against airborne ailments, and is made of 100 percent natural Young Living Therapeutic Grade™ essential oils. Place a few earth-friendly drops on tiny temples before school, or prior to outdoor play time, and your children will never be without the protective properties of Thieves®.
Classrooms have always been a germ haven, and many school districts now require students to bring a hand sanitizer to class. This protective measure is yet another excellent opportunity for a green alternative to traditional, synthetic products. Thieves® Waterless Hand Purifier is an all-natural formula containing the benefits of Thieves and peppermint essential oils and is free of chemical additives. Unlike most hand purifiers, Thieves purifier contains aloe vera and vegetable glycerin to moisturize skin, which helps elminate uncomfortable dryness. Toss the petitie one-ounce tube in your children’s backpacks for portable protection.
Tip: Thieves purifier tubdes are recyclable! Encourage your kids to bring you the empty containers and recycle them together to further their environmental education.
Thieves is a wonderful natural product for protecting little ones from airborne bacteria, but when it comes to maining wellness, Young Living’s KidScents line is the best choice in a synthetic-staurated market. For everything from vitamins to toothpaste to a variety of personal care options, the KidScents line of products are all specially formulated for the young ones in your home.
Newly formulated KidScents MightyVites is Young Living’s 100 percent natural, whole-food-sourced multivitamin for children. Using nutrient-dense superfruits, plants, and veggies, this unique children’s supplmement is the closest your child can get to the real thing, without actually having to swallow his or her least favorite vegetables. Children can be finicky and don’t always enjoy their leafy greens, now it’s easy to keep them healthy and happy year round with a great-tasting, chewable multivitamin.
Another great product, KidScents Toothpaste, is a safe, all-natural alternative to commercial children’s toothpaste brands. Perfect for kids of all ages, the delicious bubble gum flavor is sure to get any child excited about brushing. This Young Living product is infused with peppermint and spearmint essential oils, Thieves oil blend for gum health, and xylitol, a natural sweetener and tooth protector for cavity prevention. Choose this chemical-free alternative to traditional toothpaste options and share with your children the importance of 100 percent natural oral care from an early age.
Even with the germ fighting power of Thieves and the health-fortifying benefits of MightyVites, it’s inevitable that kids will catch some form of illness during winter months {and any time!}. While one should always seek medical attention for a child suffering from cold and flu symptoms, Young Living offers an all-new product that may naturally aid in relieving cold weather discomfort {as well as pollen and mold in the summer}. The new Breathe Again Roll-On
is infused with four different type of eucalyptus as well as a blend of other essential oils designed to relieve wintertime {and any time} discomfort. Rub liberally on the chest, temples, or under the nose and allow this naturally soothing, chemical-free blend of oils to work its magic.
Young Living makes it easy to choose natural, synthetic-free kid’s products with Thieves® oil, Thieves Waterless Hand Purifier, KidScents product line, and the all-new Breathe Again Roll-On®. Any one of these options will allow your child to make it through the year without resorting to chemically made products, and can even be a great intoroduction to the joys of an environmentally conscious life.
