A Good Gummy - Just What the Doctor Ordered

Fun Food Friday

This week proved to be a challenge in stamina.  The music played throughout the house, only the tune was that of coughing, sneezing, and, at times, kids craving nothing more than to be cuddled.  The flu I had last month finally caught up to the rest of the family.  We adorned the couch with pillows and blankets.  The perimeters were lined with t.v. trays serving up liquids for hydration, backup tissues for....well, you know.

I went to the store to stock up on body cleansers - you know, meds to clean out the gunk running rampant in my family's bodies and, consequently, in our home.  I lost myself for a moment strolling through the aisles.  It almost calmed me to forget about the sounds sadly ringing at home.  When I "came to" I remembered that our pediatrician had recommended vitamins for Lyla, once all of her molars had moved in. 

I found L'il Critters Gummy Vites.  The picture to the right shows the American flag and just underneath it is written "Made in the USA".  Lyla eats it without hesitation.  That is a great statement since she is two years old.  The lack of hesitation may come about from a group dynamic, though, since the rest of us take vitamins as well.  What's the old expression - The family that eats together...?

How do get your kids to take medicine or vitamins?  I would love to hear (or read) your thoughts.  Let me know.
