gluten-free/df Vitamins For Kids?

I was wondering if I could get some gluten-free/DF vitamin suggestions. My four year old willingly takes the Animal Parade chewables, but my 18 month old just kinda looks at me like I have three heads when I try to hand him one. I know vitamins are important for celiac/gluten intolerant kiddos, particularly calcium & vitamin D. TIA!

We use Schiff children's chewables. They say they contain fish and soy. There's no gluten or dairy.

I believe that Animal Parade also makes a liquid multi-vitamin. And Nordic Naturals makes a gummy vitamin by the name of Nordic Berries. There are also gummy calcium supplements...I think they're called Yummi Bears?

Carlson for Kids Chewable Calcium, My boys love it. The multivitamin I use is Hero Nutritionals Yummi Bears. Both are gluten-free/CF(dairy free)

We use Trader Joe's Gummi Vites for Kids. The label says no wheat, gluten, milk, eggs, tree nuts, soy, artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.

My son likes the taste.

Thanks everyone!

I ended up finding a liquid vitamin at Wild Oats - I'll have to post the name later since it escapes me at the moment. It's gluten, dairy, soy, artificial anything free. Aiden can be a little tough to please with flavors/textures because he has reflux so he's gotten pretty picky. He seems to be doing ok with the liquid ones so far.

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
