Each child is unique and each body has unique requirement. Children under 4 years of age are advised to intake one tablet daily and those more than 4 years are advised to have 2 tablets per day in order to balance the nutritional requirement of their bodies. Normally, children don't like eating tablets but a Schiff children's vitamin is something that they cannot resist. This is because these vitamins are available in chewable or gummy form with various fruit flavors and fun shapes. The most common shapes available are cat, lion, hippo and elephant.
Schiff vitamins are good for the growth and development of your children but ensure that being attracted by the fun shapes and fruit flavors, they don't take an overdose. Almost all the vitamins contain iron and toxicity of this nutrient can lead to food poisoning, genetic disorders and other related health issues.
