Does anyone have any tricks/tips on getting syrups down your childs throat? The taste is so strong that juice & milk just doesnt disguise it.

I am at my wits end!!!!!!! I wouldnt care so much, but its antibiotics and she has to have it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Bribery! Our trade-off when giving Evelyn worm medicine was that if she ate the medicine, she'd get a Lindt ball!

I do use a syringe and I do bribe her with ferrero rochers!!! (which she loves) but she still screams and kicks and throws herself back and gags and vomits and gets absolutely hysterical.

thanks anyway!
