Tilaurakot, a short way north of Taulihawa, is thought by most scholars to be the ancient Shakya capital of Kapilavastu, where the young prince Siddhartha grew up before he left home. Today the district that carries that name is mostly farmland: flat Terai fields of paddy, wheat and sugarcane, stretching south and west to the Indian border.
It is a place of large families and busy courtyards, with children everywhere. So this page starts with the youngest members of the house.
Growing up in Kapilvastu
Kapilvastu District is in Lumbini Province, with its headquarters at Taulihawa. It borders the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh along much of its edge, and the low Chure hills rise along the north. Most households depend on farming, and paddy is the main crop, with sugarcane grown for cash.
For children, the Terai brings a few predictable challenges. The heat and the monsoon mean stomach upsets spread easily. Picky eaters may refuse vegetables and drink little milk. And winter fog brings a run of coughs and colds through schools. A good diet is the foundation, but parents often ask us whether a supplement can help fill the gaps.
For the children
Calcium and vitamin D for growing bones
Children who do not drink much milk may fall short on calcium. Chewable gummies make it easier: Nature's Way Kids Calcium + Vitamin D gummies are among the most popular in our store. Keep them out of reach, since children can mistake them for sweets.
Zinc and vitamin C in the cold season
Zinc supports the normal working of the immune system. Our article on zinc for immunity in the Nepali climate explains why it matters during seasonal changes. The Kids Health collection has immune support gummies and daily multivitamins in child-sized doses.
A note on doses
Always use a product made for children and follow the age on the label. For babies, or for any child with a health condition, ask your paediatrician first.
These kids' supplements are ordered most often:
Nature's Way Kids High DHA Omega-3 Fish Oil - 60 Pastilles
Nature’s Way Kids Multivitamin For Fussy Eaters- 60 Gummies
For the parents
Mothers who are planning another baby or already pregnant should talk to their health worker about folic acid and iron; our guide to folic acid in pregnancy is a useful start. Fathers doing field work all day may find a daily multivitamin helpful when meals are irregular during harvest. And for grandparents with stiff knees, ask us about joint support.
A practical tip: buy one or two things the family will actually take, rather than a shelf of bottles. A daily habit with a single good multivitamin beats five products that are forgotten after a week. Keep them in a cool, dry place, away from the kitchen fire and direct sun.
Border shopping and why the label matters
From Krishnanagar to the smaller crossings, many Kapilvastu families shop across the border, and children's vitamins and tonics are easy to pick up there. The problem is that you often cannot read the label, check the expiry, or know how long the bottle sat in the heat. For a product your child will take every day, that matters.
We only stock products from authorised importers. Each one arrives sealed with its batch and expiry printed. If anything you receive is not genuine, our authenticity guarantee gives you a full refund.
Delivery to Taulihawa and the villages
We do not have a shop in Kapilvastu. Vitamin Nepal's only store is in Paris Danda, Kathmandu, and we send all orders by courier. Deliveries outside the Kathmandu Valley usually take 2 to 4 working days. Homes in town, such as Taulihawa, Krishnanagar or Banganga, are generally straightforward; farm villages away from the main road may take a little longer, particularly after heavy monsoon rain.
To order, use the website or message 9801205255 on WhatsApp. You can pay by Cash on Delivery, or with eSewa, Khalti, Fonepay QR or bank transfer. In a village, mention the nearest school, mandir, masjid or chowk and give a phone number that someone answers. The delivery charge is visible at checkout.
If you are not sure which product suits your child, tell us their age and eating habits and we will help.
Frequently asked questions
From what age can my child take gummies?
Most kids' gummies are labelled for children aged about 2 or 4 and above, depending on the product. Check the label of the exact item, and ask a doctor for younger children.
Can I order Cash on Delivery to a village near the border?
Usually yes, as long as the courier can reach the address. If you are unsure, send us your location on WhatsApp before ordering.
