My toddler thinks his Vitamin C gummies are candy... and hid them under his bed!
Okay so my 3yo has been sneaking extra Vitamin C gummies and hiding them like a squirrel. I found a stash under his bed today. 🙈 He thinks they're candy. Anyone else deal with this? How do you keep them from overdoing it?
That's exactly why I'm wary of those gummies. They're basically candy with a vitamin label. I'd lock them up high. My kid tried to climb the counter for them once. Not worth the risk IMO.
Oh man, I feel you! I actually switched to a brand that uses organic cane sugar and natural flavors. Still, I keep them in a high cabinet. Maybe try a childproof container? Some brands have those.
Gummies are just sugar bombs anyway. We use a chewable tablet that's less appealing to kids. My son hated the texture of gummies so we dodged that bullet. Maybe try a different form?
Haha, relatable! My husband did the same thing with my collagen gummies. 😂 Now I have a 'no gummy snacks after 7pm' rule. But seriously, check the serving size. Some brands have 2x the RDA per gummy! I like SmartyPants brand bc they're clear on dosages.
