  • After trying the d3 calcium in water, on cereal I eventually handed one to my 2 year old which much hesitation as the bottle suggests otherwise. Much to my surprise she gobbled it up and asked for more. She then cried at not getting more. The probiotic were a hit from day one, d3 took some convincing but perseverance pays off.

  • I loved that the Swisse vitamins are in a cute packaging.
    The tablets are a little hard to chew for a two year old however the calcium and D3 liquid capsules were really easy to add to my toddler’s drink and no complaints! Cant wait to see the difference in this actibe toddler’s emergy amd health after a few weeks of these products!

  • Definitely recommended. We have been trialling this for nearly a month now and it has been a breeze. It’s part of our daily morning routine. The tablet is so easy to consume however we are still piercing the calcium capsule as it is harder to chew.
    My daughter sucks the content and we throw about the capsule.
    Will continue to take them and will buy more

  • So overall we are not a fan of the calcium + D3, but the probiotic was a favourite for my kids

  • I’m not sure about other kids but my son is hating the taste of the probiotic. I’ve taken to crushing it up to mix in his breakfast otherwise he refuses it. which is a shame as I love swisse products and take them myself

  • MY 4.5yo and 6.5yo have been comfortably chewing their multivitamins for a couple of years now, so I was happy to give them their Probiotic and Calcium + D3 to chew. They were both so excited to be reviewing the product and were nervous about the taste. The did the Probiotic first,

  • As you can see by the picture my kids are still, after 3 weeks happy to be using these products. I no longer have to remind them to take them, they remind me! They are still loving the taste, texture and everything about them. I have had not one complaint.

  • I give my kids swiss brand probotics tablets, I used to give them powedered version but we don’t use it as the kids say they can taste it. since my kids is also fussy with liquid, theres nothing I could put the powder in. the tablets is better, my kids are 9 and 11 so they are able to swallow the whole.

    they also have multivitamins chewable. it took my kids a long time to get used to the taste, they weren’t keen but its either that or liquid version. they both have 2 chewables to get it over done with.

    I trust this brand to help out what my children may be missing out on.
    I wouldn’t stop using this brand.
    just the flavour taste my kids are fussy in, I normally just tell them to stuck it up 🙂

  • After being selected to review Swisse probiotic (thanks MOMS) , it occurred to me I once had some inner health plus for my children. It turns out, i still do! Expired almost a year ago and hidden behind the jams, there it was ( and I thought i knew the entire content of my fridge). Both are great products but in cannot surpass the ease of having the Swisse probiotic in a handy place, especially when the kids see it and ask for it.

  • My two boys loved the taste of these vitamins.. i get them to take a fish oil tablet everyday that they swallow whole, so they were thrilled when i told them that these vitamins you could chew up and they tasted great!! Unfortunately i had to stop giving them the probotic as it was making my 10 yr old having to run to the toilet. 🙁 I would still recommend them to other parents. Thank you for letting me trial these.

  • With excitement and delight my daughter ripped open the parcel containing our Swisse Calcium + D3 and Probiotic. to trial. She wasn’t impressed with her first taste until I reminded her she had just brushed her teeth. Oh, ok mum I’ll remember to have them tomorrow BEFORE I brush my teeth. This was a better idea and she was happy with the taste. What was even better for her was they are Gluten Free. Sophie has Gluten Intolerance and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (as well as other medical conditions). Since she started on the Swisse products my husband and I have noticed a reduction in bloating and abdominal pain. Something that is making daily life so much happier for Sophie. Thank you Swisse for putting the smile back on her face and a sparkle in her eyes.

  • I do not recommend the d3 and calcium supplement for younger kids, even though the packaging indicates it is suitable. This is because you are required to pierce the capsule and mix it into a drink or the like. Not only do my girls hate the taste, but it looks entirely unappealing and it does not mix well. My kids refuse to take these vitamins. In contrast the probiotic is great – my elder loves them, my younger not so much. It isn’t something I am likely to buy again, but next time I may try a multi vitamin version.

  • We starts off slow as my daughter wasn’t keen on the calcium capsule as it was too hard to chew. Now that we have found a work around, it is a hit. Every morning we have both tablet and capsul without any issues. Will definitely continue giving them to my daughter

  • As I have previously gave not-so-good reviews for Swisse Kids Calcium + D3(SKCD3), this one would be a good review. for the last couple of day, I have tried and actually succeeded (sort of) in getting my daughter (who will turn three this November) to take the SKCD3. I have actually added it to her morning cereal. It is sort of successfully as she does not eat her cereal every morning (it can be rice or noodles, depending on her mood) and sometimes she does not finish it.

  • My last review I said my little one said the squishy ones were fun and said it was the probiotic. It’s the calcium that’s her favourite the berry flavoured capsules. She enjoys the taste of both but the calcium wins as favourite due to the fun factor

    How would you rate this product now that you've tried it?


  • My little one used to kick up a fuss if I tried to get her to take vitamins. Not anymore, she reminds me daily when it’s time! They taste delicious and apparently the ‘squishy ones (the Probiotic) are super fun’

  • After reveiwing this product and already posting a reveiw on it , I would like to see if changing the flavour may make it more appealing like a orange taste as my kids would prefer it better I think

  • This chewable tablet was not a hit in our house, the berry flavour was to intense for the kids . I did find crushing it up in their morning smoothie was more effective for them to get its benefits .

  • I found the mixing of probiotic in juice or water not really dissolving however my kids like the taste of it anyway! I also noticed it made there toliet visit regular which is a plus .

  • When the package first arrived we were all super excited and even me too! It has been a rough winter with colds and hoping these would help!
    The packaging was clear and easy to understand with no hidden nasties!
    Kids loved the taste and some morning ask for their vitamins before saying good morning to me.

  • When the vitamins arrived everyone was very excited! So was mummy as this was a tough winter with colds! The packaging is clear and easy to read which was great. No hidden nasties, another tick! The taste well lets say the kids loved it and some morning before they say good morning they ask for their vitamin..!

  • I have found the method of popping them and mixing it into something worked because they simply dont mix, They just sink to the bottom, maybe if it was a gummy chew with a liquid Center would be easier to give and take.

  • After a week of trialling this product my 4 year old son is still loving them and asking for them every morning. Unfortunately I haven’t been so lucky with my 5 year old daughter. She is still refusing to take them and insists they taste terrible, I figure success with one out of the two kids ain’t bad!

  • So convenient for travel not having to put them in the fridge my kids have been having these daily and are loving the flavour the weather is hot and cold and generally my kids get runny noses ect but since starting these vitamins they haven’t had any signs of sickness I’m believing they are working highly recommending these.

  • My son definitely has more energy, and not as tired, I really believe it has made a difference having the Vitamin d. a must for winter when you don’t get the kids outdoors enough.

  • My child insists on having more but i tell her, only one of each a day. Then she frowns and gives me the sad face… As long as these are good for the children and they want it, I’m happy to give it to them as it makes it a whole lot easier to get some good nutrients in their diet without them even knowing. Thumbs up.

  • So I’ve tried to give the Calcium + D3 to my children in 3 different ways now – in water, on their cereal and handing them a capsule. Points for trying right? How did I go? Fail! They are freaked out by these. Miss 3.5 (lolly monster) bit into a capsule, I thought it would be a winner as it releases a sweet liquid into your mouth much like a lolly. Sigh, she spat it on the floor and said “what is that?!”
    I am not sure if these capsules are beneficial for my children given the masses of cheese, yogurt and milk they consume and sunlight they play in however it is comforting I can call a Swisee naturopath on a freecall 1800 number as listed on the bottle to discuss any concerns I have.

  • The probotic is a massive hit in my house and I am in shock as the appearance of the tablet isn’t visually appealling. Not having to store the probotic in the fridge is excellent. I think I might have some inner health plus burried at the back of my fridge that I keep forgetting about. Having the capsules on the bench is a good reminder although the kids will ask me for their “spiderman” (vitamin)

    How would you rate this product now that you've tried it?


  • My 2.5 year old has continued to be hit and miss with these. The Calcium + D3 are quite sweet and while my daughter loves her naturally sweet fruits, doesn’t like “sweets” so some days she is ok, some days she wont eat it. The probiotic I have pierced and squeezed directly into her mouth, with a very sour face at me for it. Although she its ok in her smoothies.

    How would you rate this product now that you've tried it?


  • The probiotic was a massive hit in our house, she loved that they are chewy and taste just like strawberry milkshake. I would definitely be buying these again. However the calcium +D3 was not liked at all, it did not mix at all with juice or water like it says it does, we even tried chewing them but still tasted funny

    How would you rate this product now that you've tried it?


  • My kids love the Swisse Kids Probiotics & its become an easy routine to have their Probiotic daily. Unfortunately we have had to stop the Calcium tablets as they don’t dissolve all that well when mixed with juice or water & my kids just aren’t too keen on the the taste & because my four year old can see the substance in his drink he refuses to consume.

    How would you rate this product now that you've tried it?


  • My kids love the taste and consistancy of these! They actually ask for their vitamins each morning which is great peace of mind for me to know my kids are getting their probiotics and calcium daily

    How would you rate this product now that you've tried it?


  • My kids absolutely love this products! They both love the berry flavor! They are easy for them to take and because they taste good there is no hassle getting them to take them every day. We will definitely be continuing with this one.

  • Fun packaging with yummy flavours to make giving kids a vitamin boost so much easier!

  • Miss 3 & 5 love the taste of this tablet, it is a fairly large tablet for kids, but lucky my 2 have no issue with it. I am not a fan on the glass bottle that it comes in, as if knocked can break (which ours did), and being glass meant it went everywhere. I think for a kids tablet it should come in a kid safe container. over all so far, there are no issue with this product apart from the size

    How would you rate this product now that you've tried it?


  • my girls (3 &5) love this tablet. they are aware they are tablets and help them. they take them just before bed along with another multivitamin. Miss 5 says she likes the taste of this tablet alot more than the calcium one, and miss 3 does not seem to have an opinion. Even though the package states not to give whole to this age group my 2 dont seem to have an issue taking them whole

  • I love the Swisse kids range, predominantly the calcium plus D3 and the probiotic, my don is lactose intolerant so we use plant based milks and this fills in the void in calcium and D3, with the probiotic providing gut health to my sons very sensitive tummy.

  • My three boys love the taste of the probiotic. They were very happy to just take and eat it. They even ask every morning if they can have their medicine lolly

  • Master 10 tried the capsule for the calcium and did it like it at all compared to another brand. He found it very messy too.

    How would you rate this product now that you've tried it?


  • My kids were so excited to try these. Love the fact they are free from sugar and artificial flavours. No problems with the Probiotic whatsoever. The Calcium + d3 was a bit of an issue. My kids weren’t keen on the flavour or the sudden burst from chewing on them. We tried popping them to mix them in but found they didn’t mix at all.

    How would you rate this product now that you've tried it?


  • So after a week of taking the capsules, we are still going strong. The probiotic tablet is easy to give and take however we pierce the calcium tablet and suck the contents out as it’s veru hard to chew.
    Overall highly recommended and will continue giving to my daughter.

  • Great to read that Swisse are a carbon neutral company and that it is ‘based’ on scientific evidence but what does that mean ‘based’? I think it is a great product for those kids who need it but it includes a very low dose of D3 which might not be effective if you are looking for Vitamin D. No list of other ingredients so don’t know what is in it which is disappointing. For kids under 9 that there is a warning on how to give them the tablet and must not be swallowed whole. I would have thought they would make it smaller for kids. Otherwise the product is good, without sugar and flavoured to encourage kids to take them.

    How would you rate this product now that you've tried it?


  • Swisse Probiotics for kids without sugar is a good product. Easy for kids to take as long as they chew, for smaller kids will need to be cut up as it warns not to swallow them whole. Has the required amount of strains of probiotic. One thing was disappointed to not be able to find what other ingredients are in them as there was no ingredients listed other than the probiotic strains. Bonus gluten and peanut free!

  • I received these with the probiotics and on the first day my boys (2 and 5) were excited about the funny looking lolly and took it no problems. However on the second day my two year old refused to take it and has not taken it since. My older son squeezes ‘the insides’ into his mouth and discards the casing in the bin. So not sure I’d buy afterwards unless it came in a chewable tablet form like the probiotics which they both take with no fuss.

    How would you rate this product now that you've tried it?


  • My two boys took these tablets from day one and continue to take them with no fuss every day. They say they taste like lollies and just chew them, they are 2 and 5. I love they have no added sugar. So these are a winner and I will continue to buy them afterwards.

  • We were fortunate enough to be selected to review the Swisse Kids Calcium + D3 as well as the Swisse Kids Probiotic.
    My husband and I both take multiple Swisse products so trust the brand name to deliver quality products.
    Reading through the ingredients list I was happy to notice that there were no artifical colours or flavours. A big necessity in our house is for Gluten free products (2 out of 3 kids, and 1 adult are GF), so we were pleased to see that the products are Gluten Free. They are also peanut free which I know is of big importance for many families.

  • Well the kids are loving it, they remind me daily that they need to take their ‘vitamins’. Seeing any benefits from taking them is hard to say but certainly no complaints from myself or the kids so far.

    How would you rate this product now that you've tried it?


  • I my previous review my son was loving taking his vitamins, Well things have changed, I still have no problem getting him to take the probiotic (yay) but the calcium + d3 has changed entirely, He will no longer take them, I dont think the taste is the problem, It is a texture thing, We tried both methods as he is 7, He is not a fan of chewing them and I have not found a method of popping them and mixing it into something because they simply dont mix, They just sink to the bottom, So not a fan of the calcium but the probiotic is a winner.

  • Thought I would update.. It has been a few weeks since starting these and they are still a big hit. Little miss is loving them, no reminders from me to take them she does it without prompting. She also has made sure there are some at Daddy’s house so she does not miss a day. As for health benefits I definitely think the probiotic is working, she used to intermittently get reflux especially after dairy, no longer an issue!! Definitely on our purchase again list.
