Best Multi-vitamin For Toddler?

[CantEvenEatRice]

Hi,

I just bought some of the Country Life Maxi-Baby liquid vitamins, but they do not have Calcium. Since I have taken my son off dairy, I need a supplement that has Calcium as well. Any suggestions? He won't eat the gummy bear variety so I need either a liquid form or a pill that I can crush up and put into his food. So many say for children 4 and older, so I need something safe for a 20 month old.

Thanks!

He wont eat the L'il Critter Gummy Bear Vites??? Man they are great! Eeeer I mean my son loves them

Um as for a liquid, Poly Vi Sol is gluten-free, but I do not know the calcium content.

As for "under 4" you should check with your peditrician, most of the are safe for little fellows.

I think he would like the gummy bears if he would try them. He still has texture issues with soft foods. He only likes either pureed or crunchy.

Has anyone tried the Vitamin Shoppe children's liquid?

Freeda makes a chewable complete multivitamin for children. My 2 year old takes one a day and she loves them.

Freeda vitalets are great, my kids love them. I only give them 1 (under 4 should only have 1 anyway). I also give them Rhino Calcium by Nutrition Now.

Here's the email response I got from Nutrition Now.

Thank you for your e-mail.

Yes, the Rhino Chewable Calcium Cherry tablets are free of gluten/wheat, soy, dairy, eggs, and peanuts.
