Do you give your kids vitamins? I am trying to decide if I should or not. I take them. I guess I feel like even though I provide nutritious meals and snacks they don't always eat everything so maybe a vitamin would give them whatever they are missing?

any thoughts?

i got dd (17 mos) some animal parade liquid vitamins a few months ago because her old ped made me paraniod about her getting all her vitamins and minerals. i dont give it to her often because i would have to mix it with juice. (it has a berry flavor.) i do give her silk enhanced soy milk, which has lots of vitamins and minerals. plus, her new dr said she's fine so im less worried.

animal parade makes other vegetarian vitamins. its been awhile since i looked at them at the health food store, but i think they make gummie vitamins and gum ball vitamins too.

I used to give them vitamins, but gave up a while back. They eat so many fruits and veggies that I don't deem supplements necessary anymore. Also, half of the vitamins have gelatin and/or animal-based amino acids.
