My kid thinks Super Green Gummies are candy and won't stop begging for more!

So I bought the Super Green Gummies for myself, thinking I'd hide them in the pantry. My 8-year-old found them, and now she's convinced they're 'healthy candy' and asks for them all the time. I tried to explain they're supplements, but she just gives me puppy eyes. Anyone else have this problem?

Haha, my little brother did the same with my omega-3 gummies. I had to start hiding them in a lockbox. Maybe you can tell her they're 'grown-up vitamins' and she can have them when she's older? That worked for me lol.

Oh I've been there! My husband once ate a whole handful thinking they were fruit snacks. I now keep them in a labeled container on the top shelf. As for your daughter, maybe let her have one with your supervision and explain it's for energy, not taste? Kids are smart.

Thanks for the tips! I'll try the 'grown-up vitamins' line. She's stubborn though, so I might need to get a lockbox like VeggieVictor said. And Claire, your husband story made me laugh—I can totally see mine doing that too!
