At this month’s cluster meeting we had a guest who taught a class on how to make your own healing hand cream.  The au pairs were taught how they can treat the children’s scrapes and bumps by using these creams. We all enjoyed the different smells and sampled a variety of essential oils as well as ingredients that make up the base of the cream like coconut, beeswax, and jojoba.  At the end of the class the au pairs went home with 2 jars of cream and a salve!
