Hi there!
I am a HUGE fan of DHA for Children (Toddlers) and I am having some trouble find a vitamins (that is not too hard) or supplement for my daughter who is 2 with the DHA in it. She has had something to compensate for a while, but now that she is a "toddler" it's hard to find something she can take. I found a liquid oil that was "supposed" to taste good that she doesn't like. I found a Soy Milk with DHA in it - she didn't like that much either. I found a vitamin with DHA in it - but she needs to take 3 and they are hard (not gummy) and hard to chew. Is there anything else out there I can use, try or look in to? Any thoughts???

There's a brand called Nordiac Naturals that has a liquid multivitamin with DHA. They also have chewables, but those are intended for age 3 and up. She's all ready 2 so the next step formulas are out. Maybe you could ask her doctor if they know about anything. I hope you find something for her. :)

Thanks for the information.....I guess most people don't think of the DHA in a toddler. It's excellent for their eye and brain development.....I took supplements while I was pregnant with her and she had it via Formula etc while as an infant....but as a toddler, I want her to continue getting that brain food.

I will try checking out what you suggested.....thanks again for the input.

I hope others will provide feed back as well.
