Covering the bases with Bassetts

25/10/2018



While both of my boys enjoy a well balanced diet, packed with fruit and veg and are fairly open minded to trying new things, we are a very busy and active family and always on the go and while I always cook from scratch when we are rushed we sometimes opt for the safer meals such as pesto pasta or baked potatoes that are quick to whip up and I know they will enjoy. On more organised weeks or when we are not travelling I like to explore with new dishes, some have great success and other times not so much as my eldest can be fussy at times and while my youngest isn't he tends to follow suit with whatever his big brother is doing.

Like most parents I take an interest in my children's nutritional intake and want to know I have all bases covered and there are times when we have hardly been at home between school, after-school activities and weekend breaks away. The trouble with kids is finding a multivitamin that tastes nice and isn't a chore to get them to take and can easily slot into a quick morning routine. We were recently sent some Bassetts Vitamins Omega-3 Multivitamins Orange Flavour Pastilles so I was keen to see what the boys would think as we have tried a few different kinds over the past few years and some didn't go down very well. On first impressions the boys liked the look of them as they are soft and chewy and suitable for children 3-6 year olds, they are also orange flavour which is good because they really enjoy citrus fruits of all kind and what I am really happy about is they don't have any added sugar and are made with natural flavours and colours.




My eldest now asks without prompting for his multivitamin each morning which is great because when we are rushing I can be a bit forgetful. They have both been taking one each morning without any issues and I think because they are not overly sweet they don't ask for anymore but still see it as a delicious extra at breakfast time and have remarked at how Juicy they are and even did a little drawing of orange juice in the sunshine as their interpretation of what they taste like. It also has to be said that it gives me a little bit of peace of mind knowing they contain

Vitamin B6 to support normal psychological function and Vitamin B5 which contributes to normal mental performance. It's just so easy to add to the daily routine and these are a very gentle way of making sure they are not running low




*Just a reminder that food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a healthy and balanced diet!

  5. I used to love taking vitamins like these ones as a child and it won't be long before my eldest daughter is old enough for them. It's so much more convenient and easier to remember!
