My three year old has to be the pickiest eater I’ve ever seen, which is why I was happy to work with Enfagrow on this sponsored post in
promoting their Toddler Supplements. I mean literally my kiddo survives off of carbs, including Jimmy Dean’s sausage pancake sticks, yogurt, a variety of juice, chicken nuggets and water. I’ve always had eating issues with him ever since he was a baby, granted the earliest were attributed to a gag reflex that wasn’t receding like it should in normal infants. When babies are born, their gag reflex starts very close to the front of their mouth (which is why new babies tend to spit up a lot when introduced to a thicker substance then milk) and as they grow older, that reflex normally recedes to the back of the tongue where we as adults have it. Unfortunately, this wasn’t happening with my son and although he was very interested in trying new foods, he couldn’t swallow them without spitting them back up. After about 7 months of therapy we were able to train his body to recede his gag reflex but because of this, he’s become a VERY picky eater.
As you can imagine, a diet consisting mainly of carbs isn’t exactly healthy and I’ve struggled with ways to get him to eat the nutrients he needs. I decided a while ago that the only way I’m going to get him the goodness his body needs is through some sort of toddler supplement. Thankfully I’ve found Enfagrow Toddler! My son is a big milk drinker which is a definite plus, so I decided to test out Enfagrow’s Toddler formula. We’ve been using it for a few weeks now and he absolutely loves it! It’s so nice to know that I’m able to provide him with the nutrients he needs without feeling like I’m trying to force him to eat something he doesn’t like. I want eating to be a fun experience, not something he dreads and Enfagrow Toddler is helping me to do that for him.
Besides offering him the daily nutrients he needs and isn’t getting from his picky diet, Enfagrow Toddler also gives him DHA. For those who may not be familiar with DHA, it is an Omega-3-Fatty acid and important building block for young brains. This nutrient is important for children since 85% of brain growth happens within the first three years of a child’s life. In a normal toddler diet, kids are only getting about 25% of their daily DHA ration and since my little one is NOT on a normal diet, it was important to me that he is provided with such a brain-nourishing ingredient.
Find out more about the benefits of DHA here!
Enfagrow’s toddler line includes both powder and ready-to-drink varieties of supplemental products that help provide children with the nutrients their bodies need. These options are specifically meant to compliment a toddler’s (1-3 years old) regular diet; giving kids not only DHA but also essential nutrients such as Vitamin D, Calcium and Iron as well as a prebiotic blend that helps to support digestive health in just two servings a day!
Being a mom to a picky child can certainly be frustrating. I’m grateful that I have a product like Enfagrow Toddler to help my little man get the essentials his diet isn’t providing while letting me feel better about his future.

I do have a picky little girl. She only seems to ever want to eat junk food and barley eats anything healthy I make her. Enfagrow would help me give her all those important nutrients she needs without all the fuss! Thanks for the chance!
My daughter uses Enfagrow to help keep her diet balanced. My daughter uses enfagrow to help keep her wait on. enfagrow is a wonderful product and she loves the way it taste.
I have a picky eater and I’m never sure if she’s getting enough nutrients… If we had this it would out my mind at ease!
I would love to try this with my daughter, she can be a picky eater and it’s really hard to track what she does eat and know that she’s getting balanced nutrition.
My nephew hates to eat healthy foods, so I’m hopeful this will be something he can benefit from!
Great review, love that this would make all parents feel better about what they’re feeding their kids.
my daughter breast feeds, Thank God, even that she is picky loll thanks for sharing this with us @tisonlyme143
I need this for my son who does not eat well. Thanks!
He needs the extra calories because he is on the thing side
I have an almost 2yr old who is a pretty good eater when she wants to be but she is picky and is honestly not eating what she should be. Mine lives off of cheese sticks (not fried ones), cheese, french fries, hot dogs, milk, water, apple juice, spaghetti, yogurt, cucumbers and tomatoes. And the majority is soo not good for her. I’d love to give her something that would benefit her and give her the appropriate nutrients even if she won’t eat it, she loves drinking things especially if she thinks its something she isn’t supposed to have.
My daughter started out a great eater and now trying to get her to eat anything is a struggle!!
I worry about my twins who were born early getting the nutrition they need to catch up to their age mates.
I don’t have a Toddler but My Niece has a toddler and a new baby. If I won I would surely send this to her.
Even for toddlers who may not be particularly picky, Enfagrow is a great way to make sure to round out nutrition.
I used Enfagrow for awhile with my third child after he turned one. He wasn’t growing as quickly as I would have liked, and it really helped!
My son will completely turn away a meal sometimes. He may not take one bite of breakfast.
I have a picky eater, this would help!
My grandson will not eat food. It is almost impossible to get him to eat any type of solid food. He is 9 months old and should be eating more solid foods and I think he could benefit from the Enfagrow.
Right now my almost 2 year old will only eat veggies…I know I know, HORRIBLE problem to have that he actually wants to eat things like broccoli and green beans, etc. but seriously! It’s soo hard to get any protein into this kid! He doesn’t like peanut butter, refuses to eat meat, except for the very very occasional chicken nugget or hot dog…but he does love dairy so I’m hoping this as a substitute for his milk will give him a needed boost!
I have a very picky eater that loves Enfagrow!
Id like to try for my baby emily ,,,i dont like the idea brrstfeeding in public…. Bottles and formula is more easier and conftable out in public
Hmm… this could be a decent option.
My little one has fussiness and gas problems and I along with my husband will be willing to try this brand to see if it will comfort him.
I have a very picky eater, a few bites and she is finished!! She has stayed the same size for a while now. What to do, what to do!!
Although my boys are 10 and 11 my best friend’s baby is also extremely picky and has a variety of health issues. I will definitely tell her about this! Thank you!
My daughter loves Enfagrow Toddler. She likes the regular and vanilla. I make sure she drinks it daily because she is a picky eater as well. She’s 2 so there’s not much reasoning with her or getting her to try new things. It’s not cheap, but it’s very worth it!
It’s so hard now anymore to get children to eat and drink anything that’s healthy. It seems like as the years go one children get more picky or have very sensitive stomachs. Enfagrow is a great way to slip in that nutrition that kids need!
Yes, I have a very picky eater. My mom tells me my daughter got it from me which I’m inclined to believe 🙂 I’m worried that she isn’t getting the proper nutrients she needs so something like this would make me feel much better.
Our granddaughter is about to stop drinking formula so I’d like for her to try Enfagrow. I want to make sure she has all the nutrition she needs.
I’d love to try this. His diet is mostly carbs like you mentioned above. I worry that he’s not getting the correct amount of nutrition daily as needed.
My daughter is no longer at the stage to drink formula .. But I would use it by giving it to my best friend .. Or another goof friend of mine.. I used to use this exact product when my daughter was at that stage.. Great stuff !!
This would be perfect for my nephew. He is very picky and won’t even drink milk. We have tried to get him to take vitamins and other supplements but he always forgets or spits them out. My sister worried about him getting enough nutrients each day.
My toddler is picked when he eats. He loves crackers, but hates vegetables. Sometimes all he will eat is crackers.
Yes I have a picky child and this Enfagrow Toddler sounds wonderful! I really like that it has the daily nutrients and DHA needed. I’m definitely going to try the ready-to-drink varieties…my toddler will think it’s a treat! Thank you for this review and information! 🙂
My son is a picky eater and this would help. It would give him the extra nutrients that he may be missing
We just had a new grandson born last month, I’m sure his Mother and Father could really use all of these great products for him.
Our son isnt THAT picky but he can “forget” that he is hungry and not eat very much during the day. I dont like it that he does that, but I know that it can be normal. This would def help him get all the nutrients that he needs during the day
My daughter is insanely picky. Enfagrow would help me to get the essential nutrients into her that she doesn’t get from eating food.
By giving her the nutrition she needs
my son isnt too picky of an eater but i like that enfagrow gives my child the nutrients i know he needs after he is off formula and onto real foods.
I would like to try with my daughter
Between tummy issues and being a picky eater, I hope Enfagrow would help my baby girl get the nutrients I’m concerned she’s not getting.
My son is a picky eater and I don’t know what to do. I hope he outgrows it.
This looks like a good way to get extra nutrition for kids.
My child would benefit with the nutrients this product would give as infants lack specific nutrients.
Right now my little girl is being such a picky eater I worry if she is getting all she needs! This product would be the perfect solution!
My son is.. It’s frustrating and sad because I want the best for him.
I have a niece who hasn’t quite started eating solid food, but will soon. Hopefully, she won’t be too picky!
My daughter is having a baby pretty soon but her oldest was so picky and difficult. We are hoping the new baby is easier.
My coworker is having a grand baby pretty soon.
I have a picky eater and I’m always worried if she is getting all her nutrients
My daughter isn’t picky but I sure could use these things for on the go!
Thank ybou for this.. I have a picky eater.
I would like to win this for a friend who has a picky toddler.
The one I know just shoves it in
My daughter is a picky eater, even though she eats healthy food, it is hard to get her to eat a good variety. This would be great to ensure she is getting all her nutrients.
My son is a very picky eater. Hard to get him to eat anything good for him. He could benefit from the vitamins and nutrients.
My great niece eats everything. Luckily she is not a picky eater.
I Have a child that throws up all the time, and youve got to wonder how many vitiams hes losing.I worry about him not getting enough go food.
Yes, a picky child would most definitely benefit from Enfagrow for multiple reasons. One being they will be receiving the nutrients they are not getting from food. Enfagrow has all the nutrients in one place. It will provide the essential nutrients in addition to the non essential nutrients too!
Enfagrow formula would help my child get all the nutrition they need to be healthy.
My grandson could gain some weight This might help
I had no idea they made this for toddlers. I have a little cousin who could benefit from this!
My neighbor is having a lot of trouble with getting her picky toddler to eat at mealtime. I think she (and her son) would really benefit from this.
My daughter is breast feeding her 5th child.. but i think it is good to supplement with a formula.. we did on one of the other ones but i dont remember exactly why we did… thank you so much for having great giveaway!
I think my extremely picky eater would benefit from this product. It’s a struggle at meal time to even get him to sit at the table to try the food. This would help put my mind at ease while we tackle other issues like the not sitting down.
Our hostess, knowing that nothing upsets young children’s schedules more than party refreshments in late
afternoon, solved the difficulty by serving a
simple supper shortly before five o’clock. It is possible to alter the guidelines around if you
would like. And remember Air Hockey Tables are not just for kids.
