Some vitamins accumulate in the body and can become toxic, such as Vitamin A, others are peed out, such as Vitamin C. I would discourage that. I know it is hard with kids. My children used to try and chug their antibiotics when they were pink liquid.

Nothing terrible. But overtime is can cause damage. I would suggest maybe cutting them up into pieces. Or breaking them into half. The non used vitamin just goes out in urine. (you can tell by the light yellowish color). Don't give her more than the recommendation on the bottles. Just be proud that she enjoys taking her vitamins.

Too much vitamin A can kill a person. Google it if you think this is a JOKE! It;s not. Too much vitamin A can actually KILL a human being. I worry that you are NOT a good parent or you would have already researched this information, rather than ask random people on the internet. I sure hope the child is "safe" in your care.
