Default Tricks of the Trade.... Sprinkles and pills

The pills are quite tiny, and our pediatric family member simply swallowed it. A trick for learning to swallow pills was starting with the tiny candies you put on cakes.

Anyway, before that, the child used to take antihistamine sprinkles. Mixed in with a favorite flavor yogurt or pudding helps because it is a small quantity and it is thick and creamy. No taste. No separation. One or two spoonfuls and the child was done, and wanting more! But don't give more - it is a part of taking the med! ;-)
