[quote=Anonymous]I had a lot of difficulty doing this as a child so I taught my children early. They hated liquid medication so when they were around 7 each of them I taught them how to swallow pills. Now they are 11 and 9 and are pros at it! They prefer it over liquid and it’s easier for us when traveling too, just one bottle of Motrin or whatever the family uses versus all the liquids! I would say reach them using any method that works, one son pops into his mouth with water and my other son puts it in dry and then sips water like an adult might. You can also put it in a spoonful of yogurt and swallow it that way! [/quote]
