Great vitamins, but a little large
I received these today, alot earlier than expected which was a good thing.
The bottle is large with about 1/3 of it used for vitamins.
It DOES have a child safety lid on it where you have to push down and then turn for it to open. It is easy for me to open, but not my son which is a good thing.
The vitamins are very thick and chalky like tums. They are purple and smell like grape with a chalky vitamin smell, but twice the size i thought they would be..maybe the size of 2 flintstone vitamins.
They are chewable and vegan which I like and my son tried them and liked them and wanted more (i didnt give him any more of course), so I guess he rates them higher than me..lol
He is 2.5 years and had no problem chewing it even though it was a little large. I would just watch out if your child is not a good chewer or doesnt have a lot of teeth.
I did like that this vitamin is for 2 years and up. 2 and 3 year olds take only one a day, so this bottle will last 2 months. 4 years old and up take 2 a day, so the bottle will last 1 month.
Nutrition facts: per 2 tablets (remember dose will be only HALF of this for 2 and 3 year olds!!)

beside the vitamins on the bottle, there is the source of each nutrient, but i didnt write them all on here.
It states these are tooth friendly because they only include natural sweeteners as sorbitol and xylitol. NO sucrose, fructose, artificial sweeteners, or artificial flavors are added.
it also states 100% free of animal by-products.
It has an ingredient list, but my hands are getting tired of typing after all those vitamins I typed..lol
Hopefully this will help someone out there that had questions before purchasing like I did!
