In case you are interested, in the late 50s Gary Fisher gave severely autistic and schizophrenic children LSD, and his reports are interesting.

i'm very curious if there's any reports/documentation of children's experiences with something like salvia, etc..

I do not know of any reports of children ingesting salvia, but I have always wondered how children of various ages and backgrounds would react to psychedelics, but I also think it is dosing children is terribly unnecessary.

One thing I love about tripping is that it makes me have a feeling inside that I haven't had since I was a kid...a sense of wonder at the world, and magic all around me. I don't think they need it. Being a kid is sort of like tripping all the time.

I think children wouldn't be as prone to fear or anxiety. Their brains are constantly receiving new information, so they'll probably take it for what it is.

i ate a TON of shrooms when i was 12 and all the years after that up until about 17 or 18, does that count?  tripping is more like being thrust into a fairytale land at that age, not much deep insights or anything like that ime.

I agree. I was a teen for my first trips and the combination of being at an age where you have no responsibilities and the reemergence of complete innocence makes for an amazing experience. My first acid trip, I was a ball of pure positivity for 8 hours.
