  Gary H. asked:

  My 4 year old daughter may have an ear infection. Anyone know a good pediatrician in Davis or Weber county?

  

  Tyson H. replied:

  I don't want create conflict but I always like to help educate. I agree with previous statements that essential oils work and that they work differently for every individual just like pharmaceuticals. I also agree that modern healthcare has its place and I believe that we need to start closing the gap between modern medicine and other holistic wellness practices. I am also agreeing that essential oils are not created equally. Some are synthetic and impure and therefore create interactions. What I disagree with is the statement that essential oils have not been studied enough. Essential oils have been used for thousands of years but In the past few decades they have been studied and researched extensively. Hundreds and thousands of peer reviewed and medically reviewed studies have been published. Pubmed.com is an amazing resource for studies on essential oils and there is a new resource called aromatic science.com which is maintained by a nationally ranked anesthesiologist and several other certified medical providers. it is full of amazing published studies...human trials I might add. I have a hard time hearing statements like backwards scientific methods. Pharm. company's try then justify all the time...they are called off label RX. A drug is studied for a specific purpose and then put on the market for a completely different use then what was originally studied. It would be silly to think that every RX could be studied for every interaction with different body types and also other interactions with other meds. I am not saying that there can not be side effects from essential oils BUT they are going to be so far and few between when you have a pure product. When you have 100 percent pure essential oils you do not have the synthetic man made compounds full of fillers and binders. I am under the vision that we have to work together to bridge the gap. In our home we use the oils first and then if we need to we then go to our medical provider. I can tell you that in the past two years...other than well baby visits and prenatal care we have not had to use our healthcare provider. Ear infections first aid needs, sinus infections etc taken care of at home for cents! Isn't that what we want...creating healthier independent families versus symptomatic healing and codependency on drugs? Modern medicine is amazing but we need to be empowered and know that there are simple natural and safe solutions that we can use in our homes. I also included a DR panel video...these are medical care providers that use the essential oils in their practices and I can tell you it's not because "so and so" tried them and had a good experience...it's because of scientific and controlled studies.

  Practical H. asked:

  Anonymous asked, "Can anyone suggest some good science experiment kits for ages 5-10? Thanks!"

  

  Essential B. replied:

  I am very new at homeschooling but it was recommended to me to try supercharged science.com, I am waiting for my kit to come in the mail. She also has live classes once a week where she demonstrates her science. But I think I may also look into the Magic School Bud Kit just for fun since everyone is talking about it on here.

  

  Jennifer W. replied:

  A.S.K....Academy of Science for Kids.

  

  Laurie M. replied:

  following. We really like Let's Read and Find Out Science books for about PreK-3 rd? grade level depending on the book, then do science based on those, make volcano, collect fossils, shells, go to museum, planetarium, etc.

  

  Shard H. replied:

  the Science Buddies website is awesome

  

  Hope O. replied:

  Our amazing, local library has some great science experiment books that only require a few items and most of them are things you already have around the house.

  

  Angela S. replied:

  Noeo science! Comes with all the books, plans & supplies for experiments. 3 lessons, 1 experiment each week.

  

  Mary L. replied:

  I got my son several science experiements for Christmas from Hobby Lobby. $10 each. Wind generator, weather station and they had about a half dozen others. I also got both of my kids crystal growing kits and a bunch of different plants to try growing from seed there. Venus fly trap, pitcher plant, polka dot plant, shamrock, sensitive plant (called an alien plant on package). We started a science log book to track the growth of all of them. The shamrock beat the others on sprouting. The Dragon Blood plant (dreceana) should take 1-2 months so it doubles as a lesson in patience!

  

  Ashley B. replied:

  I have seen the book science is simple and it has great reviews. We haven't personally used it but it's something I am looking into trying. Also interest has great science experiments.

  

  Resi C. replied:

  I love our book "Science is..." It is the basis of our science program!

  

  Kimberly P. replied:

  Density can be made with oil and water. Volcanos can be made with 2 Liter bottle, baking soda, vinegar and red food coloring. You can also make that into an Art project by paper mâché. It sounds like you are looking for Apologia Science. They use everyday household items in their experiments.

  

  Patty R. replied:

  Steve Spangler and DoctorMadScience are both awesome. They use things that you already have at home as well.

  

  Stephanie W. replied:

  Barnes and Noble usually carries good science projects. My kids love them.

  

  Maureen K. replied:

  Steve Spangler on YouTube has some.awesome science experiments for kids and.they include instructions.

  

  Kendra W. replied:

  We really like academy of science for kids. Their kits come with everything you need for the experiments. (Except normal household stuff like water)

  

  Keisha W. replied:

  Holy Cow Science has awesome experiments and comes with just about everything needed for each experiment...they are also very affordable for what you get.

  

  Suzanne S. replied:

  Steve Spangler and Science Bob

  

  Jessica W. replied:

  Don't know of this counts as a science experiment but Snap Circuits are an amazing way to teach some physics. My 8 year old loves them and has a lot of fun and has learned a lot about circuits.

  

  Wendy S. replied:

  Smithsonian science kits

  

  Robin J. replied:

  We've got one or two of those Smithsonian kits. My son also got a Wacky Gross Science kit for his 6 th birthday.

  Lee B. asked:

  Hey guys thinking about splashing out and treating myself to a tt bike... Will probably get one second hand to get more for my dollar, any suggestions/recommendations?

  

  David P. replied:

  Hi Lee, I agree with Matt, Planet X bikes are good. I also tried a mates Chris Boardman Air TT elite a few weeks back. It was really smooth, comfy and responsive. They retail@£2000+ on bike science.com, but you may be able to pick one up for £1000 or there snouts on eBay or similar. Try bike radar.com for bicycle reviews. Hope that helps? Happy shopping!
