Natural Mood Balancers for Kids
Are you at your wit’s end with toddler tantrums or moody tweens? Wondering if natural mood balancers for kids exist — let alone, work? In this video, I’m going to let you know about the best natural mood balancers for children that are safe and effective— coming up!
First of all, I want to say that this list of Natural Mood Stabilizer recommendations is coming straight to you from a momma of three children. If you’re a worn-out parent desperate for a way to help your little (or older) child thrive while also helping save your own mood and sanity, you’ve come to the right place!
The overall mood in your household can be greatly improved if you’re proactive with natural mood stabilizers like these!
Because I know you’re a parent on the run, I’m going to go through these quickly! Here are the 4 best natural mood balancers for kids:
- #1: Omega 3 Fatty Acids! Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA promote healthy blood flow in the brain and as such, are absolutely vital for brain function and mood regulation. Acquiring these essential fatty acids in your diet through supplements is a fast and sure way to ensure your child is getting the building blocks of membranes and cell structures that are essential for brain health.
We recommend Barlean’s Seriously Delicious™ Omega-3 High Potency Fish Oil for getting those Omega-3’s. It’s easy, absorbable, and tastes like a smoothie! - #2: Vitamin D: Animal Parade Vitamin D3 500IU Children’s Chewable or Thorne Research Vitamin D Liquid Drops are great natural mood balancers for kids.
Science shows that stable Vitamin D levels improve mood regulation! Vitamin D plays a huge role in your kid’s developing brain, cognitive function, and affects learning and memory. We recommend giving one dose to kids during the summer months and two during the winter months when you’re spending more time indoors.
Bonus: Vitamin D supports bone and immune system health as well!
- #3: Herbs! Oregon’s Wild Harvest Tranquil Child is an alcohol-free tincture of peppermint, catnip, passion flower, and chamomile that has a remarkable effect on kid’s moods. Its ability to help ease anxiety and stress makes it one of the best natural mood stabilizers for children around!

Moving on to our last natural mood stabilizer for kids:
- #4: Chamomile! Chamomile tea has been enjoyed for centuries by cultures everywhere for its natural calming effects. But there’s a way easier method for calming kid’s moods than making them stop their busy play to drink tea, and that’s essential oils! We carry a great kid-safe essential oil blend from Plant Therapy called Calming the Child. Or, you can make your own roller bottle blend to stop meltdowns on the go, using chamomile, lavender, and a carrier oil such as jojoba.
