Zarbees Naturals Childrens Melatonin Supplement Flavored Reviews Summary

Effectiveness in Inducing Sleep

Pros:

• "These melatonin gummies are a lifesaver! They subtly calm them down and allow them to fall asleep naturally!"
• "I love this product, it helps my oldest son get to sleep and stay asleep."
• "My son generally doesn't have a problem with sleep, but these gummies helped him adjust quickly to the time difference."
• "These work only if your child is tired. They do build a tolerance."
• "By far our favorite sleep aid. They not only help him calm down and fall asleep but they help him sleep through the night."
• "I got these for my ADHD kids to get back into routine for school. We don't use them nightly, but it is very noticeable when they are used."
• "We tried them and within 15 minutes we were snoozing! It is only a very small dosage of melatonin so there are no morning residual effects."
• "I originally bought it for my 11-year-old ADHD boy, and I could see the first day he fell asleep after 30-60 minutes of having taken the three gummies."

Cons:

• "These definitely make her tired, but she tries to fight it which can sometimes end up in a melt down."
• "My son burned himself, so I was trying to find him something that would help him sleep. This product woke him up in multiple inconsolable nightmares through the night."
• "Yes it does work. But when my 4-year-old takes it she wakes up in the middle of the night and has to go to the bathroom and doesn’t go back to sleep."
• "They woke me up at the same time in the middle of the night; and caused me to become restless. And even caused a night terror, which I’ve never experienced before."
• "This really works and def helped promote my son to fall asleep within 10-40 minutes most times! But my daughter however has been up for hours in the middle of the night restless."
• "These work but they give my son nightmares. He's been taking them for a while but not all the time and I've noticed when he takes them he wakes up in the middle of the night because he's had a bad dream."
• "I tried these before I gave them to my kids, I felt relaxed but was waking up with headaches."
• "These were a miracle worker! My son has always slept great and slept through the night. He’s 21 months now and sometimes would have hard time falling asleep because he’d rather play. I would give these to him occasionally. However, I think he started getting used to them and they were doing the opposite of what they should be doing. He fell asleep quick like usual, but the last few times we gave him one, he would wake up 3 hours later in the middle of the night and be up for hours."

Taste and Texture

Pros:

• "These are the only melatonin gummies my kids like and I’ve tried several other brands."
• "He also likes the taste and the ingredients don’t have any medicine."
• "My son enjoyed the flavor too."
• "I take this as an adult. I under estimated it so I took 5 gummies (5mg total) on the first night. Wow, i couldn't get up the next day. Now, I just take the kid's dosage which is 1 gummy (1mg). It works within 30 minutes or less."
• "This gummy tastes so good, taking melatonin won't feel like a job."
• "I find the kids are usually asleep within 10-20 minutes, whereas on a regular night, it can take over an hour. The flavor is great, very subtle but sweet enough for kids to like them."
• "These gummies have a great flavor, tastes almost like watermelon fruit leather. My kids think it tastes better than the original flavor."
• "My kids think they’re getting a treat every time they take these. On nights when they’re a little too rambunctious and we can tell they need to calm down a little bit. Give them one of these and it helps them get ready for bed."

Cons:

• "I don't know what it is exactly about these gummies but my toddler hates them and spits them out."
• "My four year old son has NEVER been an easy sleeper and he would wake through the middle of the night. He would be up until 11 at night which was meant he was only getting about 7 hours of sleep at night. He’s definitely a kid who has a fear of missing out. I now give him 1/4 of a berry before bed and his sleep quality is much improved."
• "My almost 3 year old hates to go to bed and fights sleep tooth and nail, but these work! She requests her “sleepy vitamin” and is usually asleep in 30 minutes. Although it helps her get to sleep, it doesn’t help her stay asleep, and she still often wakes up the middle of the night."
• "The flavor was horrible, it taste like Tylenol or some Sort of medicine. It woke us all up at the same time in the middle of the night; and caused us to become restless."
• "My daughter claims she doesn't like the flavor but I'm sure its the texture she doesn't like much. Overall. She liked them and just by that she fell asleep face down within 30mins."
• "These have a very strong almost spicy flavor, like an old fashioned gumdrop. My kids didn’t like them and we ordered a different brand. I took them myself so they wouldn’t go to waste. I noticed that I would pop awake in the middle of the night whenever I took them. Meh. Pass."
• "I bought these because of all the high ratings I read on here because my son was having such issues falling asleep and I feel like it was affecting his behaviors during the day and he seemed sluggish! This melatonin has worked amazingly. I have even taken it and has helped me with my insomnia! My son was taking 5 to 6 hours to calm down and fall asleep at night and this supplement has made him only restless for maybe an hour and he sleeps through the night now. I am so thankful for this. I recommend this to all parents struggling with their kids not sleeping good at night or having trouble winding down for the night. It works. Even on me and I am a hard-core insomniac from many years of working the night shift. Buy these you won't regret it!"
• "Our daughter has autism and this has been a life saver. When she doesn’t take it she will be up until 1am and the melt down all day the next. These help her stay asleep and we’re recommended by our doctor!"
