Making Sure Picky Eaters Stay Healthy With IronKids Gummies
Is there a parent out there that hasn’t dealt with their child being a picky eater at one point?
My three-year-old daughter, Ava’s eating habits are constantly evolving and changing. She has went through stages of not wanting to eat anything, to eating everything insight and then refusing certain foods that don’t look a certain way. As a parent, I’m constantly trying to find new combinations of foods and snacks that are not only appealing to her, but healthy too. This is obviously easier said then done! There is only so much I can do to combat her picky eating at times.
I have come up with certain tricks to get my daughter to eat a well balanced and nutritious diet. Ava hates having to chew too much and that can be a problem when it comes to eating vegetables and meat. To promote eating vegetables at snack time I don’t serve them to her chopped, but shredded. When I shred her carrots (her favourite vegetable) she eats them up like sugar-filled cookies! Similarly, this technique of making her food smaller is great for disguising meats in her dinners.
Picky eaters like more daughter are notorious for missing out on key nutrition, so I make sure she gets a vitamin supplement each morning. After trying a lot of products, we finally settled on IronKids Gummy Vitamins from Life Science Nutritionals. IronKids Gummy Vitamins are made in Canada and offer a variety of doctor reccomended vitamin supplements specially formulated to support the nutritional needs of kids. The gummies are made with real ingredients while being free from a sugar coating, aspartame, and artificial colors. All IronKids Gummies are also made in a nut free facility, and are dairy and gluten free.
With Iron Kids Gummies, I’m confident my daughter’s nutritional needs are being met, so she can get the most out of her active day. At the moments, Ava is taking the IronKids Multi-Vitamin Gummies. The gummies taste great and are super easy to chew unlike solid vitamin based supplements. It feels great that I never have to deal with a picky eater when it comes to Ava taking her vitamins. To be honest, she actually begs for more!

My kids love taking gummie vitamins. I will have to check this brand out the next time I need some.
My youngest is a very picky eater so we have to give multivitamins to her as well. My kids love gummy vitamins so I will have to look for these.
I’ve never seen this brand before but my kids love gummies when it comes to vitamins.
Our routine, is after dinner, we get up and go! Instead of sitting around and waiting for tomorrow we move!
My kids take a whole foods vitamin everyday, we also drink raw vegetables every morning and the spinach has lots of iron! Its important to get lots of vitamins either in your food or through supplements.
Too bad these weren’t around when my kids were little. They were definitely picky eaters!
My son is a very picky eater. He gets it from me. He also loves carrots, and prefers them shredded. I wonder if he’ll eat other veggies shredded? Thanks for that idea!
Gummies are one way that we were able to sneak those needed nutrients in to our girls diets.
I never heard of these before, they will be great for my kids! Gonna look for them
My kids love gummy vitamins. I’ll look for these.
It is such a great idea to have kids vitamins in a gummy form. My daughter decided at a very young age she did not like meat. It was always a worry that she was not getting enough vitamins.
Great giveaway! I try to feed my kids healthy options, but I know they don’t get 100% of what they need all the time. Vitamins help in that area.
Haha we got a bottle of these once and they taste really good! For the time we had the bottle the whole family was getting their daily vitamins! Even us adults!
My kids are picky eaters too, so we make sure we have these gummies on hand so they get the nutrients they need. Thanks for the giveaway!
Love gummy vitamins.they taste great and are a great way to get kids to take their vitamins.
Vitamins are so important so it’s great that your kids are eating these. I feel like I’m running short on iron myself!
My daughter takes a healthy lunch to school every day and is only allowed treats occasionally.
These look great I’ve heard really great things! I need to pick some up for my littles!
My kids loved ta
My kids loved taking gummy vites. Truth be told, I did too!
These look like great vitamins. It’s important to give kids daily vitamins, but it’s even more important with picky eaters. Their little bodies need tons of vitamins and minerals that they don’t get when you can’t get them to eat the good stuff.
These are great! I actually get men’s gummy vitamins for my husband LOL I’m all about bribery LOL
I wasn’t a picky eater as a kid. But I was picky with my vitamins. I hated the chalky tasting ones, yuck!
These gummies are awesome – kids tend to be picky – this is a sure way to get them all the nutrients they need.
Our morning routine is we get up, bathroom stuff, teeth, water and then vitamins. By following our routine the kids always remember their vitamins!
My kids are horribly picky! I make sure they get their vitamins daily.
This is a great idea. Kids really need to make sure that they get their nutrients in every day.
This makes it easier for the kids when it’s in gummy form. I really like this idea.
My boys love Gummy vitamins and it is the only way I can get them to take them. I think they are great for making sure the kids get their daily dose of vitamins.
Sounds like a good vitamin for the little ones. When my children were younger I used to give them gummie vitamins.
I definitely have a picky eater. He usually only wants to eat the exact same meal every single day.
Homemade meals.
My children see my husband and I exercise and eat our fruits and veggies. I believe you have to lead by example. This works for us!
my kids have been on a set schedule since they were babies and it keeps them in the know. they know whats gonna happen and at what time and they are so used to it that it makes out life very easy
