Re: Getting Vitamins in my son

[Guest guest]

I began opening the capsules and mixing them with honey. I have now

switched to whatever jelly we are using. I mix them in a large serving

spoon and then move small amounts to ' Barney spoon. I am able to

put up to five supplements into a couple teaspoons of jelly and

licks the spoon, finally! I still have one awful one that won't disguise

its flavor and it remains a problem.
