One of the easiest ways to teach your child to swallow pills is to practice with small candies, such as sprinkles, and progress to larger candies, such as Tic Tacs or jelly beans. Typically, children can begin swallowing pills around the age of 10; however, some children as young as 5 or 6 can learn to swallow pills.
