Zarbees Kids 1mg Melatonin Chewable Tablet, Drug-Free & Effective Sleep Supplement, Easy to Take Natural Grape Flavor Tablets for Children Ages 3 and Up, 30 Count

Ordered these for my overactive toddler who had trouble whining down at night.

Gave 4 stars because listing is for 50 count, but received a 30 count bottle.

So far, this is a godsend! My 3 year old usually takes anywhere from 45 minutes to 2.5 hours just to fall asleep, and then her sleep is restless and she tosses and turns, waking up throughout the night. She couldn’t fall back asleep without me coming in to comfort her. I just gave it to her for the first time tonight (it was recommended at her well visit by her pediatrician) and she was asleep within ten minutes. Usually she would have woken up a few hours later, so I went in to check on her, and my usually restless little one was SNORING! I’ve never seen her look so content and restful. I’m not sure if this will continue to work as well, but the first night was wonderful, and I’m usually really skeptical about aids like this. I wish I would have bought this months ago, but hey, I’ve been perpetually exhausted for years and finally get to sleep now!!! Thank you, zarbees!!!

I have two very energetic kids who no matter how much outdoor activity they were on, they still struggle to fall asleep at night. At first, I was hesitant to give any type of medication to the children for worrying about any potential reaction or side effects. But after thorough research, I found this product and so far my kids are getting tremendous help as well as my husband and I who had been suffering from sleep deprivation. The kids seem to fall in deep sleep and wake up feeling fresh. Also, the pill comes with great grape taste and kids love them. But I only recommend giving this to them every now and then so that they are not building any immunity to this melatonin and also possibly getting addicted to them.

My toddler was sleep trained from an early age and when she turned 18 months she began waking up in the middle of the night and would stay up for 3-4 hours. This constant lack of sleep had such a negative impact on mine and my husbands overall attitude during the day and we became desperate for a solution. I knew about melatonin pills/gummies but those were not always safe for toddlers. I read the reviews on these tablets and felt comfortable giving them to my toddler. Y’all, they were a game changer! After maybe a week of giving them to her we started noticing her sleeping longer and longer through the night. It’s been 3 months now and we give one to her almost every night. Her sleep (and ours) has been soo much better and she wakes up so happy and rested. Of course there are still some nights she has woken up, but they are few and far between and she doesn’t stay up for nearly as long. And for this price, you just can’t go wrong.

I have to say I was worried about giving my 5yr old grandson these due to I don’t like giving medicine to him or less a doctor says to then I’m even iffy too! But I decided to give these a try. He is a big boy for a 5yr old and I didn’t think giving him just one would take affect on him but let me tell you he gets it’s at 8:30pm and is sleeping by 8:50pm he gets good sleep through out the night. I do recommend them if your child has a hard time getting sleep!! I don’t use them on weekends only school nights and not darning the summer only if I know he is not getting enough sleep witch I can tell in his mood. I use to have them automatically shipped to me once a month but cut it down to every 3 months and now I put Oder in when needed and I will say they are cheaper through Amazon!! I put pictures to show the ingredients and doses to give as I stated above my grandson is 5yr old and very big for his age he turns 6 soon and I will stay giving him one due to it works great. Ps.. I did question his doctor about giving him them before I did he was perfectly fine with me doing so and said if I felt uncomfortable doing so not to.

A month ago we moved our 2.5 year old to a bed and since then its been a nightmare keeping her in her room. Bedtime and naps have become something we dread. My daughter would take over an hour to settle down mostly from screaming and not wanting to stay in her bed, waking up countless times at night and then waking somewhat early. Out of desperation I looked for a childs melatonin and read the reviews for this. This is the second night I gave it to her. Last night she woke up 1x and then woke for good at 4 am. No bueno. Tonight she was out again as soon as we were done with our bedtime routine. So its either an amazing product or there is something more in here that is drugging my child. I gave it to her one hour before bedtime which is too soon after experiencing two nights of this because within 30 min she becomes very relaxed, and very tired. Almost a different child because its like going from a wild child to someone who is stoned. So while I want to be enthusiastically excited about this, at the same time I am kinda nervous that there is more in the pills. I noticed it says Sleep with Melatonin so in the back of my head I thought is there something else thats not on the ingredient list. I couldnt find anything else on the label. So the jury is still out. If I wasnt always concerned about whats in supplements Id easily say this is a miracle supplement for my daughter to get her over this transition hurdle. But I think as a test, Im going to take one myself and see what it does. I take a high dosage of melatonin and it does nothing for me so if this makes me drowsy then I know something else is in there that they arent advertising. Stay tuned! *****Update - I still use this and cut it down to 1/2 a pill. It still relaxes her especially on nights where shes super wound up. The downside is she always wakes early in the morning when we give it to her. Im still going to use it though.

I would highly recommend this if you have a child who has difficulty falling asleep. I love this product for my daughter. She’s been taking them since she was 4 years old and she’s 6 now. When we first started her on melatonin, my husband and I’s work schedule was all over the place so she was bounces between home and grandmas house. So her quality for sleep wasn’t the best due to the inconsistency of her schedule. This has helped a lot. It is grape flavored and a chewable which makes it super easy to consume. Before bed, she would ask for her “chewy”. As she grew older, she would figure out on her own if she needed it or not. She would go try to go to sleep on her own and if she can’t, she’d ask for her “chewy”. She would then fall asleep within minutes. Not at age 6, Our schedule is not so hectic and her sleep schedule is more consistent so she no longer needs the melatonin.

This product is great! I have a 3 year old with autism and a 5 year old that struggle falling asleep. And these chewable tablets work every time, within 15-20 minutes my kids are sleep.

Our pre-teen has been sleep walking almost nightly for the past 5 months and a friend recommended we try a 1mg dose of melatonin. I came across the Zarbees brand melatonin (were familiar with the brand because of their honey and elderberry syrup) and purchased it with the hope of solving the sleep walking problem. Im happy to report that after a week of use, it seems to have helped significantly. Our pre-teen still sleeps very actively but isnt getting up and walking around the house in his sleep. Overnight camp is coming right up and Im happy knowing that hell be sleeping there at night without the potential hazards of sleepwalking to put a damper on his experience. One thing to note is that the grape flavored chewables have a pretty bold flavor. I havent tried one but our pre-teen said that theyre pretty potent. I dont know if this means that theyre sour or just super flavored, but its not a major detractor so I still give it 5 stars.
