Is it time to start?

My kids will soon be 5 and 3. They eat their fruits and veggies but probably not the daily serving they should be getting. We are considering to start them on a multi vitamin. My question to you is, did you put your kids on vitamins at this age? If so, what kind did you get? I haven't researched it at all and want your advice and experience.
My kids are healthy and have had no broken bones yet!!! I'm thinking vitamins can't make things any worse than they are! Just another boost to their health.


I used to take the Strawberry Shortcake vitamins. One night when the babysitter was over I took the bottle of vitamins and hid them under my pillow. Once in bed, I managed to open the lid and ate about 7 or 8!! I thought they were like candy!!! Needless to say, I didn't get sick and the babysitter didn't babysit us again!!! I remember my parents were not impressed with the sitter when they found the bottle of vitamins by my bed the next day!!!
