About Bead Children's Medicine Packaging

There is a Chinese saying that good medicine is bitter, but good for health. Traditional Chinese medicine has always been known for its bitter taste, and most children are unwilling to take it when ill. In Chinese folk, many people have the habit of eating a candy after drinking traditional Chinese medicine. Inspired by this custom, this design adds fruit-flavored burst beads to the oral liquid bottle, which are orange, mango and green apple flavors. This design makes the process of drinking medicine, which is originally painful for children, more fun and enjoyable.

When taking it, after drinking the last sip of medicine, children can squeeze the burst bead to let out the sweet liquid, so that there will be a bit of slight sweetness to relieve the bitterness of medicine.
