Bath solution for those hyper kids

I found a great healty bathing solution for my kids. It calms them down and helps there body to relax:

1 cup Epsom salt (CVS 5pd bag $4),
1/2 cup Baking soda
a drop of lavender oil.

The epsom salt is also good if they have bruises or muscle ache from sports. It kind of dissapears.
The lavender oil is very calming.
Drinking the water is supersafe.

This solution helps also if you have a wart somewhere. We where dealing with that last summer on our six year old. We tried every solution we found at the pharmacy (which can be very stingy!) with no success. After a few Epsom salt baths the wart dissapeared and never came back.

We made some of the bath mix and love it! How many scoops should I add to an average sized bath? Thanks Karin!
