Should I give my child vitamin supplements?

It is not required that you give your child a paediatric multivitamin supplement. You can if you want. Your child doesn't need vitamin supplements. If you feel that your child is eating a nice variety of food and is growing well, most likely your child's getting enough vitamins and minerals without taking vitamin supplements, maybe even more so.
