Do you or your child have difficulty learning how to swallow a pill? Swallowing a pill is a learned process and often necessary for many children who need to take medication or supplements daily. We would like share some videos by Alberta Children's Hospital in Canada which are excellent to watch to learn how easily do it and minimize the risk of choking on a pill. You can show these to your child as an easy way for them to learn how and then let them practice with your supervision and encouragement.

These videos teach a child how to swallow a pill using small pieces of hard candy. Rather than use candy, we can suggest using a low dose oral probiotic like HMF Capsule or Nordic Natural's DHA Junior which are better for them than candy.
