Is it difficult to get a 2 year old to eat this? Is it best to crush it and put it in their food? Or are they soft enough to handle?

These require chewing, I'd crush it up and put it in something they'd eat. It's not a bad taste, I tried one myself and they're definitely not bad.

No, my two year old loves them. We've never had to crush them. We just hand one to her and she eats it. The consistency is similar to a chewable vitamin.

I don't think you'll have to crush these. My 2 yr old eats similar vitamins to these and has been since before he was two. My older son takes these d hist and likes the taste. Theyre not very big.

Our kids are excited to chew these even at just over 2, like candy, we have to hide it

it taste really good, so he may easily eat it. they are not hard but not soft. its really a pressed herbal blend. i think when you get it, try one for yourself. they do work amazing...i take them my self and the sinatrol is really good. good luck. i think you'll know when you get it what your 2 year old can do.

Both my toddlers easily chewed this and my youngest is now 2, but obviously it depends on the child. I sometimes use to break one in half and give little pieces, but it crumbles easily in my opinion. You could easily crush as well as that is what a friend of mine does with her 3 year old and mixes with honey. Great product!

They are soft enough to handle - it's a liquid inside and the outside is a little chewy but dissolves...should be ok!

It is ok for adults. But it is hard for little ones. I use this for my 5 years old son. He has to dump the food out to a plate to eat.

Hi Joanne, I also have a 2 year old and used it on her. I just made sure that I didn't put it on her hands that she puts in her mouth. I also used it on my 3 month old's legs. :)

i have had two 2 years at the table to eat a good many times, but if you are hoping to have have 2 kids work at it when they are over 3 i think it will be too small. It will most likely last you 2 years if they are 1.5 years now.

My 3 year old takes it and has since she was able to chew a gummy. Just be cautious because they are chewy and could cause choking if not chewed well.

My daughter does not like the taste of this at all, but she will eat it as along as she has something to drink with it. Maybe offer a special drink that he doesn't normally have, like soda etc, to make it 'special'. Or you could hide it in food (I did this with my youngest with motion sickness pills--at 2-3 years old she wouldn't eat them, even the kids chewable ones, though she couldn't ride in a car w/o them. I hid them in applesauce. You may have to do this, if the drink option doesn't work.)

I would say its fine, as there's nothing on it that could come off and pose a choking hazard and its super soft and lightweight. As for whether a 7 month old will be interested in playing with it, that totally depends on the child. My daughter got hers when she was a year old, but I don't think she'd have been interested in it for long at 7 months, but according to some other reviewers others love it at that age. Honestly, my daughter loved hers at first, then quickly lost interest (I'd say within the month). However, she's now 2 and a half, and has recently rediscovered it and is in love with it.

Whether your 2-year-old would like it or not is not the important question. Please note the manufacturer's warning in the yellow box: "WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD. Not for Children Under 3." Apparently it can come apart into small pieces.

Yes this will definitely help. My daughter is 2 months old and she is able to keep this pacifier in her mouth much easier since she can grab and hold onto the plush, or at least push it back into her mouth most of the time. Once it is in her mouth, it just stays in better than a regular pacifier. She loves it.

Children are attracted to anything new. The serving spoons are a little to much for a baby, everything goes to their mouth. But we have to remember children's play has to be supervised at all times. Clean up is up to us until they get in the habit. We are the ones that choose the toys that they play with. A family member gave my grand kids a food set with chef's hats so I bought the little tikes. They love it. They are 2 1/2 and 4 1/2. A one year old might not play with it now, but give him or her time and they will enjoy it. Just watch out for the serving spoons

It is hard but not as hard to chew as a flint stone vitamin would be...although it probably has been 20yrs since I've had one of them. At any rate my 2yr old chews them up fine.

Probably depends on your toddler's fine motor control. A bowl with water will be difficult to lift out by the rim of the bowl. A bowl with dry dog food will be easier, as it weighs less.

This cup was a purchase I made because I was looking for a softer snack cup. This is indeed softer than the others I tried. What I found out though as my grand daughter grew older was that she really couldn't use this type of snack cup until she was about 18 months old. She just didn't have the dexterity in her little fingers. It was hard to get through the top, grab a snack and maneuver it out when she first started snacking. Now, it's a great cup. We live it.

I don't see any reason why they couldn't use it. By the way my two year old loves the taste!!

Yes, the pieces are too hard for a 2 year old to push together, but at age 2, they can pick the item they want made and someone else can put it together.

It might be on the large side but if you get him a soft one he should be able to squish it. As he gets older, bigger and stronger he can move up to a firmer ball. They have a tacky feel to them so he is not likely to drop it. The nice part about it being on the large side for a 4 year old is that he will not choke on it. : )
