Monday Mommy Tip - How to make your child drink that yucky medicine

July 16, 2007 | By Marie In A Mom's Life, Monday Mommy Tip |

If you have a hard time getting your child to drink “nasty” tasting meds like antibiotics or cough and cold medicine, here’s a trick you can do. Simply let your child suck on some ice pops or just plain ice. It will numb their taste buds and when they take the “nasty” tasting meds it won’t taste as bad. Then, you can make him suck on the ice pop again. This trick has surely helped me overcome the battles of “medicine-taking”.

Hope that helps. So, Have you posted your Monday Mommy Tip in your blog yet. Join me in my blogging adventure.
