What vitamins do you give your dc?

Recently started to give my almost 6 and almost 4 year old vitamins.

I’m currently using the abidec stuff. It bloody reeks Envy

But I mix it in some drink (it’s allowed) and they drink it that way.

Is this enough or should I be given them others?

I just get the chewable kids vitamins from aldi. They must taste good because dd never let's me forget that she needs her vitamin today Grin

Everyone in the uk should be taking vitamin d, not just children. Rikets are on the rise.
I was told by my Dr bassets chewable contain everything.

I’ll look into the Bassetts. They are probably cheaper than this abidec.

Same as Lettuce - kids one from Aldi

Chewable Bassetts here too. Wish 12yo ds would just learn to swallow normal tablets!

Haliborange chewable multivitamins with omega 3.

Don’t know if they work but she hasn’t had a day off sick from nursery or school in 5 years.

We get chewy vitamins from Lidl, they are soft and squishy and come in orange or blackcurrant flavour..kids love them Smile

Thank you

I’ll use up this abidec first then probably move on to chewies

Haliborange multivit with omega 3 and some other ones with extra calcium as neither drink milk or eat dairy products and they are 6 so green veg is the devil (apart from peas) so i worry they aren't getting enough.

Chewable Bassets abcde, sometimes iron because Ds gets anaemic.

Chewable bassets for my two. They love their ‘red sweeties’.

I give the Boots gummy bears. They come in a little packet of 5 so DD sees it as a little treat.
