Chamomile - tea for digestive and relaxant

Calendula - my personal favorite.  Eat petals in salads or use as a
coloring.  Wonderful healing tea.  Terrific on all sorts of skin ailments.
Safe for all ages.

Anise - flavoring and a good digestive

Thymes - flavoring and tons of medicinal uses

Good luck!  Teaching to the Boy Scouts is always good for a story....
