Is your Child getting enough Nutrients? {Nordic Naturals Review & Giveaway} Ends 11/9

I always worry that my kids aren't getting everything they should to help them stay healthy and grow up strong.  And I am always on the lookout for a multi-vitamin that my kids will take daily and enjoy.  Well I was recently introduced to a company called Nordic Naturals.

Nordic Naturals began in Arctic Norway and since 1995 their mission has been "to deliver pure and great-tasting omega fish oils that promote optimal health and wellness".  Fish oil, or Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids (ALA, EPA, & DHA), are important for every aspect of your child's functioning, from hormone regulation to healthy vision.  Most mom's now know that DHA is necessary for proper brain and nerve development in infants and children.

I received two samples for my daughter to try.  The Nordic Berries Multivitamin is like a sour gumdrop but very soft and chewy.  It wasn't so sour that it made your mouth pucker but had the sugary crunchy coating to it (it's actually organic sucrose crystals).  My 5 year old daughter said she really liked the way they tasted!

The Children's DHA looks just like a fish oil capsule and can be swallowed, or is actually chewable, with a strawberry flavor.  These didn't go over quite as well as the Nordic Berries.  The whole chewable thing isn't really ideal- it doesn't break right away and then the oil squirts out and you're left with the shell, which my daughter and I both spit out.  I'd say these are best for kids that are old enough to swallow a pill.  Otherwise go with the liquid Children's DHA.

Giveaway:  One lucky reader is going to win a bottle of Omega-3 Gummy Worms
