Another vitamin question
What vitamin do you give/did you give your 2 yo? DS is a very picky eater so I know he is not getting the nutrition he needs. I tried giving him Flintstones vitamins for toddlers and try to hide it in his pancakes in the morning when he eats breakfast, but he knows its there and will spit it out.

Re: Another vitamin question
i give flinstones its the only ones my kids will take, and i have tried them all, they will not take gummy ones, i know people say flinstones has aspartame in it which is bad but to me the benefits of the vitamin outweighs the aspartame for my extremely picky eater

Another vitamin question
I still give her the liquid poly vi sol. She'll be 2 in January.
Is that bad? Is she supposed to have something else at this age?

They make tons of natural candy type vitamins that you can buy at a store like wild by nature or whole foods. I am not really familiar with them bc I don't buy but maybe see which is similar and that way you can get the vitamin in them w out the aspartame.

My 2 yo takes animal parade chewables; both a multi and the acidophilis. I think one is grape and the other mixed berry.

No the poly vi sol is great. I give it to all my kids. But my 3 yo twins are starting to be more picky lately and I'm having a tougher time sneaking it in. My ped said give it as long as I can and when they won't take it, switch to a chewable. I'm on the hunt this weekend for a chewable they will hopefully take.

Gotcha. Idk if this is out of your budget, but Honest Co. sells vitamin powder packets that you can mix in food or drinks. That might be a good option
