20 Healthy Stocking Stuffer Ideas for Kids and Teens
Although the holidays are a time for indulging and treating yourself, we still want to make sure our children are not overdoing it. Yes, partaking in the holiday festivities is fine in moderation but as parents, it is important to instill healthy habits in our kid’s lives.
With New Year’s around the corner, it’s the perfect time to start the year off with a new mindset and end the year with the motivation to do it. Help your young children and teens make better choices for a healthier lifestyle by educating them about their bodies and health as well as incorporating some helpful products into their routine to make the transition easier. For example, begin introducing them to vitamins such as a kid’s multi-vitamin, Vitamin C, and probiotics. These will help build their immune system, provide key nutrients, and support many functions in the body.
When you begin giving your child a daily vitamin or supplement, it may be difficult at first for them to learn the technique for swallowing pills. Using MEDCOAT® to provide a flavored pill coating to the vitamin from the beginning will not only alleviate the stress of taking their vitamins or other medications but also teach them how to swallow pills properly.
