Gemstones & Children

Gemstones & Children are a wonderful combination. Children are pure and dare to feel without barriers. Read below about the different gemstones and life stages.

Gemstones for children

Gemstones and children make a wonderful combination. Children often have a natural tendency to feel and discover what is going on within themselves, and this naturally makes them more sensitive to the energies of gemstones. Gemstones can help children find emotional balance, peace and focus, and can also offer protection.

Rules of thumb for gemstones in combination with children

There are some important rules of thumb to keep in mind when using gemstones for children:

  • Try to avoid dark gemstones for children. For example, Onyx, Black Obsidian and Garnet are too intense gemstones for children;
  • It is generally advised that children wear only one stone.

Gemstones for children at different stages of life

Which gemstone is most beneficial for the child depends largely on the stage of life the child is in. Each life stage has its specific areas of concern on a physical, emotional and spiritual level. In addition, every child is unique with all the beautiful talents and challenges that go with it.

Before, during and after pregnancy

Pregnancy is a vulnerable phase in which a new life unfolds. There are several gemstones for children and for parents that can support during pregnancy. Think of Moonstone, which supports becoming pregnant and regulates and balances the hormone balance. Or Red Jasper, which protects against possible miscarriages and helps the mother and child become strong and powerful. Or Agate, which is supportive in all growth processes during pregnancy. We also have Dumortierite, which stimulates enjoyment. And finally, Chrysoprase, which helps to make the final stage of pregnancy and childbirth successful.

Gemstones for babies

Safety and peace are two important needs for your newborn baby. Also for this phase, we have a number of crystals to match your child's needs. First up is Rose Quartz. Rose Quartz has a loving, warm and gentle energy that creates a peaceful atmosphere. Labradorite is perfect for when there are tensions in the home. This gemstone strengthens the child's aura so that tensions and stimuli come in less harshly. Finally, we have Blue Chalcedony. This one makes the atmosphere calm and relaxed. It also provides comfort to both you and your baby.

Gemstones for toddlers

When it comes to picking stones, it's okay to let kids have their way. You'll be amazed at how often they manage to pick the right stones. There are gemstones that can be used for specific challenges. For example, we have Nephrite, which can provide support for potty training. This stone works strongly on the kidneys. The Blue Calcite can help with learning to talk, as it connects well with the Throat Chakra. Labradorite is a fine protective stone and can help process stimuli for when your child first goes to daycare or nursery. Carnelian can help make first contact with new friends easier, it is a true friendship stone. Finally, we have Tiger Eye. This is a protection stone and helps children to say "no" when they don't want things.

Gemstones for children entering elementary school

Many things come at once to your child during this phase as well. Our gemstones can support children at this stage on various levels. Chrysocolla balances children's emotions and makes it easier for them to get along with others. Amazonite helps determine things for themselves and it reduces mood swings. Lapis Lazuli is a calming stone that helps children express their feelings. Fluorite improves concentration and helps with remembering important things. Finally, there is Opalite, a man-made stone that clears the head. It allows your child to come into his power and cope with new situations.

Gemstones for children at puberty

Puberty is all about discovering who you really are. For many children it is a difficult and confusing time where many choices have to be made. The most important thing in this phase is protection, safety and trust. Now that children are older, there is a wider choice regarding the gemstones you can use. Black Tourmaline is a good example of this. This stone can contribute to calmness and protects children from the electromagnetic radiation of their phones, for example. Citrine is a stone that gives cheerfulness and helps to overcome insecurity. The Blue Chalcedony helps keep you calm during an exam, for example. It is a stone that helps you remember what you need.

During puberty, many children get stuck. Hypersensitivity has been in the spotlight in recent years and is a topic we need to take seriously. In our offerings we have a number of gemstones that can help well with high sensitivity. For example, we have Labradorite which strengthens the aura. Aventurine has a relaxing and reassuring effect. Aquamarine is a stone that can offer deep peace. Then we have Red Jasper which puts children with both feet on the ground. And finally, there is Rock Crystal that helps adolescents regulate their energy and give them strength.

Adolescence

In this stage of life, your child is mainly standing on his or her own two feet and separating from the parents. Being in touch with your child is therefore very important in this phase. There are a number of stones that can help you with this. Blue Calcite helps you speak from your heart and supports you in finding the right words. Chrysocolla promotes communication and makes you tolerant when you take certain positions.
