Default Iodine supplementation- particularly for toddler

Hi, I'm new to the forum so hello everyone!
As a family we supplement fairly heavily and iodine has a part in that. We used to use lugols solution 3%, I started using a drop and then upped my dosage every few days until I was using about 10-15 drops a day.
Anyway, we ran out a few weeks ago and I keep forgetting to buy more. I want to buy a 12% solution this time as it seem to make more sense financially, and I'm wondering how much people give to their children? My daughter is 15 months old and she is obviously needing t take iodine too, Im just not sure how much and whether a 3% solution would be better for her, since I don't want her to have too much at once- I'd rather spread her dose out over the day.
Thanks in advance

I can make my own at about 7% for under a dollar a bottle. By making your own, you can vary the strength as you see fit.

As for dosage, I would see what Dr Brownstien recommends. I do about eight drops myself.
