As a mom of two picky eaters, I was skeptical about finding a multivitamin my kids would actually take. First Day’s gummies changed the game—they’re like candy, but with organic kale and berries hiding inside! The strawberry-orange flavor got a thumbs-up from my 5-year-old, who now asks for ‘vitamin treats’ every morning.

The texture walks a fine line—they’re slightly stickier than mainstream gummies (probably due to no artificial binders), but we solved this by keeping them in the fridge. During summer, I learned the hard way that these can melt into a vitamin blob if left in a hot mailbox—pro tip: opt for doorstep delivery!

What sold me was seeing real changes: fewer sick days from daycare (even during flu season) and my oldest finishing homework without constant reminders. The clean ingredient list means I don’t cringe when I read the label—just real fruit extracts and nutrients like vitamin D equivalent to eating 200 mushrooms (who even counts that?!).

Fair warning: The earthy smell when you open the bottle might surprise you (it’s those real veggies!), but kids don’t seem to notice once they taste the fruity flavor. We’ve made it part of our routine—with breakfast on school days and as an ‘energy boost’ before soccer practice. After three months, this is one parenting hack I won’t give up.
