JoySpringSleepBerry - Kids Melatonin Liquid - 3MG Melatonin with D3 and Elderberry - Sugar-Free Liquid for Kids & Teens – Gentle Natural Sleep Support Formula (4 fl oz)

These melatonin drops are incredible! I’ve been using them for my toddler and seven-year-old, and they’ve worked wonders! The taste isn’t unpleasant, and it takes effect quite quickly. We usually give to our kids an hour before bed - during bath time. By the time we finish and get into bed, the melatonin has taken effect!

Honestly this works fantastic for my boy!! He just needs a few drops (yes individual single drops - not dropper) to help him settle at night. On nights he doesn’t take it, bedtime can take up to an hour. He tosses and turns and seems to struggle letting his body rest. On nights we give these drops, he is much calmer, lays down, and goes to sleep. No incidents of night terrors and we’ve used these occasionally for the last 6 months. He doesn’t get dependent on them. Our pediatrician gave us the green light with this as well. I just add the drops into his water about 30 mins- 1 hr before bed. He doesn’t even notice a taste difference.

I want to start by saying, I read the good reviews first, then I read the bad ones after my purchase. I read a lot of negative reviews about this product after it came in the mail yesterday.My intuition tells me that most people that use this product with negative results maybe trying this product under complicated circumstances. Such as the child having a poor diet, underlying health issues and more. When you are dealing with neurological things you have to have knowledge about the different forms of consciousness. To say the product is causing night terrors is actually not true.I happen to be a conscious leader and into herbal medicine. Certain herbs bring things out of us and this product does not cause night terrors. Children are already dealing with a lot mentally; therefore, things will be revealed while introducing natural things.The product can not create scary visions. That means these thoughts and visions are all ready there. The product can cause drowsiness of the measurements are not correct. The product can in fact shine light on areas that need attention for the children mentally.Depending on the level of knowledge from the parents and their spiritual beliefs will determine how much they entertain regarding this topic.We recently moved and my daughter woke up around 3am during the move and it threw off her sleep schedule. I wanted to find a way to get her back on schedule because it’s been almost two months and she had been taking late naps and staying up until 3am. It’s safe to say she is back on schedule because of this product.I feel like it’s unfair to say a natural product is not working properly when the child is not fully healthy prior to usage. I feel like some of these people are not being realistic/ honest with what they are up against regarding their child prior to giving this product to them.My daughter has been sleeping through the night since she was 3 months only wiggling around for milk without opening her eyes. She sleeps with me.My daughter is 18 months and because she is petite weighing about 21 lbs. I measured with discernment. I had a home birth, carried full term, breastfeed ( still nursing), she is not vaccinated and she has a healthy diet with no health issues. I am grateful, not bragging.I apologize if my review may come off as insensitive for those with children that have disabilities. That’s not my intentions to be rude. I have a soft spot for anyone with a disabilities. I actually specialize in trauma for children. I am a yoga teacher for youth 3yrs and up. I also do yoga for special needs children. I am just sharing knowledge.I gave her a few drops last night to see how she responded. She did very well. She went to sleep within 15 to 20 min. Tonight I gave her a little less than half of the dropper and she went to sleep within 15 to 20 min. She is sleeping peacefully and waking up refreshed without any complaints.I do believe there need to have better measurement options for every age. Therefore there won’t be any over dose unnecessarily. I believe many ages can benefit and measurements are important.

If you are looking for something that will make your kiddo sleep better and fast, this is the perfect solution.It is super effective, good flavor and works fast. I don’t use it everyday just when it’s needed. And I cal tell you my son falls asleep sometimes within minutes. This 2 onz container last me about 3 months.

This worked initially for my 3 year old. She's an active one, but she's not ADHD or autistic or anything of that nature. She just likes to be awake. She'll go to bed when she's exhausted, but if she's not, she'll seemingly force herself to stay away. That's an inherent trait from me. With that said, this worked for a bit, but lost it's effectivness almost before the bottle ended. Doing some research, it seems that there is a thing as TOO much melatonin. In the SleepBerry, there's 3mg. To give some perspective to this, 3mg is on the low end for adults. Don't believe me, look up adult dosages of melatonin. A child should have around 1mg or less. Basically enough to trigger the sleepiness process in their head and not to overpower their awakeness with tiredness. If you bring the process on too quick, you may find yourself dealing with a tantrum or something in quick order after the dosage. Of course this is one of those 'your mileage may vary' situations where 3mg, while high, may be needed for your child.With my daughter personally, the "Zarbee's Naturals Children's Sleep Liquid with Melatonin Supplement, Natural Berry Flavor, 1 Fl Oz Bottle" which has 1mg of melatonin works the best. The sleep process starts gradually and she'll tuck herself into bed which helps big time. I mix it with a nighttime bottle/drink and I'm good to go. I don't use this every night, but roughly around 3 times a week or so.So for the Amazon rating:Sleep Quality - This brought on the sleep process way too quickly which led me to deal with tantrums and her fighting her tiredness. 3 stars.Flavor - Never tasted it. Can't say first hand, but she didn't mind one dropper mixed in with 4oz of milk. 5 stars since there never seemed to be any complaints.Value For Money - It's a little expensive. It's over double the price of the Zarbees which works much better in my case. 3 stars.

This has been such an incredible addition to our son’s daily vitamins. He is on the spectrum and has some sleeping struggles and with a few drops 30-60 minutes before bedtime he is falling sleep immediately. It’s only been a week and even his Speech and OT therapist commented on how happy and great he did this week and I know it’s because of his improved sleep quality. Highly recommend these!
