Get bags made from silk, muslin, cotton or lace. You can find them online or at craft stores.  Herbal sachets cost around $3 or $4. You could also sew your own herbal sachets with burlap. Cut the burlap into small rectangular pieces. Sew three sides together. Leave an opening on one side, so that you can put the herbs inside. Lavender is a popular herb for sachets. You could also try peppermint, chamomile, eucalyptus or lemon balm. You might try mixing different herbs to suit your mood. Dried flower petals could also be added.  If you are making herbal sachets to put in clothing drawers, you could mix lemon verbana, theme, spearmint, citrus peal, rose and lavender. Add a drop of pine essential oil.  For protection, add a mix of hyssop, Saint John’s wort and sage.  To encourage positivity, mix rosemary, sunflower and basil. For serenity, mix lavender, myrrh and sage. Try a blend of lavender, mint, sage, thyme, calendula, lemon verbena and any other herb that you find has a pleasing smell. Put half a tablespoon of each herb you want to use. Then, add half a tablespoon of sea salt. Finally, a small cinnamon stick can be thrown in for purification. Pull the drawstring closed.  If you like, you can also add a few drops of your favorite essential oils. Be careful not to put too many essential oils, since they could easily overpower the other herbs.  If you need to suck bad odors out of something like shoes, you could also add some baking soda. There is no recommended amount but you could start with one tablespoon. To let the sachets cure, they should be stored for a few weeks in a dry place, such as underneath a bed or in a drawer. Afterwards, you can use them wherever you want to bring a fresh scent, such as a cupboard or wardrobe. You can tuck your sachet into a linen closet, underwear drawer or under your pillow.

Summary: Purchase some small bags with drawstrings. Choose your herbs. Fill the sachets with herbs, sea salt and cinnamon. Store the herbal sachets in a dry, warm, dark spot.


Your preschool or daycare should be able to give you a reference for a health professional that offers appropriate giftedness testing services. However, keep in mind that IQ or giftedness testing will probably not be covered by insurance unless a developmental delay is expected. If you cannot get a reference from your child’s daycare, you could ask your pediatrician. An IQ test can help you determine the appropriate educational needs of your toddler, as well as confirm your suspicions about their intelligence. IQ testing is less good at identifying creative and leadership abilities. Consider getting an IQ test if you need one for entry into a special program of education. However, if you don’t need one for educational purposes, you may want to just wait and see. In this decision, you should consider their age:  If your child is two or three years of age, you should hold off on IQ testing. There are many challenges with IQ testing with younger toddlers, so it may not be worth the trouble. If your child is over four years old, you may want to get their IQ tested for a specific education program. Be sure to consider your motive for wanting this test. For example, is it to benefit your child, satisfy your own curiosity, or due to a desire for a gifted child? If it is for the benefit of your child or out of curiosity, then these are appropriate reasons to test. If you are hoping that your child is gifted, then this might not be a good reason to test. You should take your child’s IQ score for what it is, rather than thinking that it equates to other virtues such as wisdom or good decision-making skills. If your child has a high IQ, you will need to nurture their decision-making skills and overall cognitive and emotional development. It is important to avoid pressuring them to succeed above and beyond their peers, which often backfires in unexpected ways such as excessive worrying, stress and poor life choices. Be sure to give your child access to tools to help them thrive and excel, but also allow them to be who they are going to be. It is okay to have some expectations, but your child’s mental and emotional health should be equally important. If your child has a high IQ, you may develop high expectations for their performance. If this is the case, you want to communicate your support for their success and development with praise, rather than only giving negative feedback when they fail to live up to expectations. If you find yourself giving your child a lot of negative feedback because of your high expectations of their performance, you may be putting too much pressure on them. Keep in mind that failure is an important part of your child’s growth and development. Multiple competing definitions of the term “giftedness” exist. Definitions may differ between countries and regions. So, you should look on your Department of Education website to find out what definition of “gifted” is used in your region. Based on this information, see if your child meets the definition and guidelines for giftedness at their school. You could phone your child’s school to find out how they understand the term. If your child is in a private school, you should give them a ring to find out how they understand giftedness.
Summary: Ask for a reference from your child’s preschool or daycare. Obtain an IQ test. Remember that a high IQ does not equate to other virtues. Avoid putting too much pressure on your child. Find out if your toddler meets local giftedness qualifications.
