Crystals For Children.

Amethyst


A wonderful stone for children going to through changes or transition. For instance a growth spurt or some emotionally influencing stage in their life (grief or divorce.) This stone helps them to accept their situation and cope wioht the changes. A very comforting stone. 
Apache Tear
The "Grief Stone". Apache Tear is actually Obsidian and is very dark but transparent. When you hold a small piece up to the light you can see through it. However, if you have been using the Apache Tear to absorb negative emotions, you will see it cloud up and become opaque. Sometimes it will clear up after the grieving is over.

 

 

Aventurine

The "Leadership Stone".Particularly good for children who are shy or suppress their confidence. Asthmatic children seem attracted to this stone as it opens up the lungs and they experience a sense of relief.
Self esteem. This stone promotes self love and self acceptance.. This crystal is also used for dermatological ailments such as acne, by holding the stone over the skin and moving it in circles for several minutes, several times a day.
The "Healing Crystal". Clear Quartz is a general all-purpose healing crystal. This stone helps to shield the child from the negative engeries and rions from modern technoology. Keep a piece next to the tv and computer! Crystal clusters are also helpful to organize scattered thoughts and to deflect negative energies.

 

Rose Quartz

"The Love Stone". Rose Quartz is another terrific general healing crystal for children especially for those who have a lot of hurt feelings or aggressive tendencies. For hyperactive children Rose Quartz soothes erratic emotional states, anxiety, fear, compulsions, and many other mental disorders. Some neurological benefits have also been noticed with muscle spasms relaxing when Rose Quartz is guided over the nerve centres. For young hearts,

 

Lapis Lazuli

A "Psychic Balance Stone". Lapis Lazuli is an incredible stabilizer for children who show psychic gifts early in life.  Lapis Lazuli provides self-acceptance of one's given gifts and encourages openness of one's spiritual awareness.
A "Soother of Emotions Stone". Jade is easily obtained and can be openly worn by children as regular "jewelry". Emotionally sensitive children often need a supportive system to ensure that their feelings do not overwhelm them. Jade enhances confidence, self-assurance, and self-reliance. Jade is very inspirational in helping one achieve one's desires in life.
A "Grounding Stone". Tiger Eye has thin rutile inclusions, and when rocked back and forth the light reflects in a certain way as if the tiger's eye were winking at you! Let your children explore this fastinating stone and help them find the flashing Tiger's Eye. This stone is excellent for grounding psychic energy and providing security for opening up the psychic centers. Sometimes children get carried away and get lost in their dream world. Tiger Eye helps to pull them back into their bodies (after astral travel). This stone is very useful to put action to one's thoughts. Tiger's Eye is about being practical. Perhaps every parent needs one for their child before trips to the shopping mall.
A "Protection Stone". Iron Pyrite comes in many different shapes, from sun discs to cubes. Children are attracted to its shiny brassy surfaces. Pyrite is like a small mirror; negative energy is relected away. The terror of being unprotected is reduced. There is also a feeling of physical empowerment, that life in the physical form is perfect, and love is abundant.
