My Go To Gentle Toddler Detox Bath Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) – helps relax, supports detox pathways

• 1 tbsp Bentonite clay – binds to toxins and heavy metals

• 1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar (optional) – supports skin health and pH balance

• 1/2 tsp baking soda – neutralizes chlorine if using tap water

• A few drops of chamomile or lavender hydrosol (optional, not essential oils)

Instructions:

1. Fill the tub with warm (not hot) water

2. Dissolve Epsom salts and baking soda first

3. Sprinkle in the bentonite clay (don’t mix with metal!)

4. Add ACV last, if using

5. Let your toddler soak for 10–20 minutes, supervised

6. Rinse off with clean water afterward

7. Moisturize with a clean, non-toxic lotion or tallow balm

Tips:

• Start with shorter baths (5–10 minutes) if new to detoxing

• Only 1–2x per week

• Always watch for any skin sensitivities or reactions

• Keep water filtered if possible (consider a bath filter)
