?I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for L?il Critters. I received a product sample and promotional item as a thank you for participating.?
Growing up,my kids were the most picky eaters ever. The day to day challenge of trying to get them to eat certain foods seemed never ending. Boy am I glad that phase is over. Well somewhat :). At first, I thought it was just my kids who were so picky but after talking to several other parents, the issue seemed more common than not. And just like I was, many parents of picky eaters are left to wonder if their kids are getting the vitamins and minerals their bodies need.
?One of my goals as a mom is to keep my kids as healthy as possible. In a perfect world, my children would eat their three balanced meals every day with lots of fruits and vegetables. In reality, I have 2 kids who are still very particular about what they eat which means there?s STILL a lot of picky eating going on. Fruits they do love and I attempt to get a few veggies in there too. But often, children sometimes favor foods that doesn?t always have the nutrients we would like. To fill in for those food jags, I like to keep children?s multi-vitamins around to round out the nutrients not found in a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
From the time my kids turned two, I have been giving them a multivitamin and have tried a variety of different types both gummy and chewable. Our most recent brand of gummy vitamins are the L’il Critters GummyVites. We had never tried these before so I was curious to try them. And received two packages for review. One sour and one regular. Upon opening the bottle, I was relieved to smell a fruit scent and not the usual vitamin and mineral scent.
Like I mentioned before, the boys are already accustomed to taking vitamins so this was a great opportunity for them to compare to the others. They both agreed that the vitamins taste great which is all that matters to them. That’s kids for you but as a mom, knowing how it benefits them is what I care about.
L’il Critters have a flavor taste and a whimsical gummy bear shape. They provide a blend of essential vitamins and minerals to support healthy growth and development.

?The L’il Critters Gummy Vites do come with a child safety cap but because they taste so good., parents should take extra precaution to keep them out of reach of children. I was impressed with the high quality of the gummy vites and would have no problem giving them to my kids on a regular basis.
?Do you give your kids a daily Multi-Vitamin?? How do you ensure they get all the nutrition they need?

Thank god that vitamins come in gummy form otherwise I’s never get my kids to take them!
Dee says
That is such the truth. Remember those chewable ones ( will not mention name) that we had to take as kids that left an after taste in your mouth. Well I remember those lol so these are a great alternative.

My older son hates the chewable vitamins (he was actually pretending to take them and hiding them in a box, which I found weeks later). He will tolerate the Gummy Vites so I’m happy with that!
