Hi All,

Here's what's working for us .... (right now)

1) Grease up the capsule
2) Run after child when he runs to the bathroom after seeing the capsule come
out
3) CLOSE bathroom door! (No escapes!)
4) Corner him while he's sitting on the potty
5) Tell him "open up"
6) Push the capsule to back of tongue with finger
7) Close his mouth and put his head back (might want to cushion the tank with a
thick towel)
8) Say "swallow" and stroke his throat
9) Give GREAT BIG HUG when mission accomplished

(We tried the nose holding technique, but he got REALLY scared.)
