My kids (age 4 and 7) have both been given a bigger enzyme. My daughter who is 4 years old rejects it completely. Any ideas on how to get my daughter to take the enzyme. It is a very big leap I think. Did anybody else have trouble with this and how did you deal with it?

I haven't had issues with enzymes; however, I had concerns when ds switched to Septra DS last January. HUGE horse tablet. I actually dropped it on a spoon with honey to help it slide down easier.

So maybe you start by placing ONE enzyme on a spoonful of applesauce or jelly -- similar to what you did with enzyme beads, but keep the capsule intact. That's actually how I got DS to take his enzymes whole to begin with...
