Is it just my house or does it seem like there are a lot of bugs, colds and sniffles going around?
I know that some of the sniffles are from allergies and the change in the weather. But after feeling great all summer long, 2 of my 3 kids are suddenly under the weather. My daughter spent the afternoon resting on the couch instead of playing.
It’s hard to see my kids suffer when they’re sick.
When I have a cough or cold, I can take medicine to relieve the symptoms and help me feel better. But when the kids are sick, they’re not always willing to take medicine.
My son, especially, does not like the taste of medicine and refuses to take it. He’s gotten so upset about it in the past that he’s cried and made his runny nose even worse. It’s been so bad that I’ve given up on trying to give him medicine at times.
So when I got the chance to try a chocolate flavored medicine for coughs and colds in kids ages 4-13, I was all over it. Yes, please!
It’s called Dr. Cocoa:
With the colds going around, I was given the chance to try Dr. Cocoa as soon as it arrived.
My son refused to try it, of course, even when I told him it was chocolate-flavored. I went ahead and gave my younger daughter her dose of Dr. Cocoa Daytime Cough & Cold. When she told him that it tasted like chocolate, my son had to give it a try,
I measured out his dose of Dr. Cocoa Cough medicine, wondering if this would end up being another medicine he refused to take.
To my delight, he didn’t refuse it.
In fact, he asked when his next dose would be, so I know he definitely liked it. I’m thrilled!
