I used the recipe above but substituted the vegetable oil for lavender oil. My mixture was a combination of chamomile, lavender, and orange oil. You can use any scents you want but do be sure to check with the children's parents for allergies as most oils are mixed with nut oils. The scent of the dough can be any scent you like. I use the calming scents since the kids I take care of tend to be extremely active.
