OMG, so my 5yo just grabbed the NAC gummies off the counter thinking they were fruit snacks 😅 He ate 3 before I noticed! Anyone else have this happen? How do you store yours to avoid mixups?

Haha, that's a classic! I keep all my supplements in a locked cabinet with a childproof latch. Amazon has cheap ones. Also, maybe try a different brand if the texture is too candy-like? Some are more chewy than fruity.

Yep, my husband tried one thinking it was a gummy bear. Now I label the bottles with big LMAO stickers. But seriously, kids + supplements = scary. I'd recommend a high shelf or safe.

That's a sign to treat supplements with respect, not as treats. Maybe involve your child in a 'vitamin ritual' where you explain they're for health. But yes, store out of reach! Also, some brands have a weird texture—mine won't eat them anyway lol.
