What to Do When Your Kid's Medicine is Too Big to Swallow

Swallowing pills can be difficult and unpleasant for kids (and adults!). Here are some helpful strategies to improve your child's ability to swallow pills. Start small, take breaks, track progress, and have fun with it! For younger kiddos, clearly make sure they know that candy is NOT medicine but we're using it to practice.

If candy is a no no, you can try this approach with beans instead! It's important to note not all medicine can be crushed because it may lose its effectiveness. #parentingtips #parentingtipsandtricks #momlife #dadlife #connecticutchildrens #beyondimagination #shorts
