This can be found in either a multivitamin or you could purchase it as a separate supplement. Vitamin D is also absorbed through the skin from sunlight. Sun block won't keep it out so hustle your kids outdoors for a little vitamin D time, at least 15 minutes a day. If you live where the weather isn't as hospitable to outside play, then vitamin D fortified milks or a supplement should be a major consideration.
Calcium
Calcium also aids the body in making strong bones and teeth. Most kids get it from drinking milk. However, if your child is one of the growing number of children with lactose intolerance, or you prefer not to serve dairy products, then a supplement may be in order. Calcium can be obtained from other sources as well, like:
Broccoli
Tofu
Cheese
Yogurt
