A. Children with low vitamin D also need enough calcium in their diet. Aim to give them two to three serves of dairy each day .orange juice,oatmesl, mushrooms,tofu, orange juice, all dairy products, youghrt, Cheese, egg yolk, soymilk , cereals,. The best way to get your daily dose of vitamin D is by spending time out in the sun.
