The Lavender Littles Collection: Gentle Lavender Care for Kids

May 26, 2026

Children have softer skin and sharper senses than the rest of us, so the lavender we put into the Lavender Littles line is gentler from the start. Lower essential oil concentrations, no synthetic fragrance, and ingredient lists short enough to read aloud at bedtime. Here is a look at the full collection and how to fold a little calm into your family's day.

The Lavender Littles Collection: Gentle Lavender Care for Kids

Children have softer skin and sharper senses than the rest of us. A scent that feels pleasant to an adult can be overwhelming to a toddler, and a cleanser that works fine on grown-up skin can leave a little one dry and fussy. That is why every product in our Lavender Littles collection starts gentler than the rest of the apothecary: lower essential oil concentrations, no synthetic fragrance, and ingredient lists short enough to read aloud at bedtime.

Everything here is handcrafted in small batches at Bloomfield Schoolhouse Lavender in LaGrange, Indiana, using lavender grown in our own fields. Here is what is in the collection, who each product is for, and how to fold a little calm into your family's day.

Why lavender for kids

Lavender has been used for generations to help people wind down, and that gentle, settling quality is exactly what makes it well suited to children. The scent is soft and familiar, the kind that turns bath time and bedtime into a signal the body learns to recognize: this is the part of the day where we slow down.

We use pure lavender essential oil rather than synthetic fragrance, and we keep the concentration low. That matters for kids, whose skin and noses are more sensitive than ours. The goal is comfort, not intensity. A child should notice a soft, calming scent, not a strong one.

How to build a calming bedtime routine with Lavender Littles

The products work on their own, but they really shine when you string them into a routine. Children settle more easily when bedtime follows a predictable rhythm, and scent is one of the strongest cues for the brain to recognize that rhythm. Here is a simple sequence many families use:

  1. Start with a warm bath using the Lavender Littles Bubble Bath or the Shampoo and Body Wash.
  2. After drying off, smooth on the Lavender Littles Lotion to lock in moisture and extend the calming scent.
  3. Treat any dry patches or scrapes with the Boo Boo Balm.
  4. Just before tucking in, mist the pillow or pajamas with the Honey Vanilla Sleepy Spray.

Do the same steps in the same order each night and the routine itself becomes part of the comfort. The lavender scent ties it all together.
