Personally I'd stay away from anything food, but for my family we just adjust ingredients due to lactose. Any parent is probably quite used to adapting recipes since milk is usually very easy to substitute (almond milk, soy milk, often just water). I own a lot of kids cookbooks and the best are:
Baking Class: 50 Fun Recipes Kids Will Love to Bake! by Deanna F. Cook
and
Cooking Class: 57 Fun Recipes Kids Will Love to Make (and Eat!) by Deanna F.
Buy regular milk and use these drops to make it lactose free. In the long run it ends up being cheaper because regular milk is so cheap lately. RIP milk farmers. Still is sweeter but to me tastes more like milk than some of the other lactose free options.
You will have to experiment but I use 1.25-1.5 droppers full in a gallon.

Try giving these a shot once. I use to to be the same way with taking a lot of pills. I take 1 of these before i have dairy and im good to go for quite a bit. I can eat a whole pint of ice cream or a large pizza on just 1 pill. You sometimes might have to take 2 depending on how much dairy but its pretty easy to judge and obviously varies for everyone. I found these about 6 years ago and they have been very consistent. You can find them cheaper in most local stores rather than amazon.

Lactaid in larger volumes at the "original" strength (example: https://www.amazon.com/Lactaid-Original-Strength-Caplets-Count/dp/B000052XB5/) is sold as a single container with all of the pills inside in a jumble, just like a standard vitamin or other supplement. Unless something about the Original strength is more stable than the other types, this tells me that it should be fine to do exactly what you mention.
Note: This is just a logical conclusion on my part. I don't know what might break down the lactase enzyme as it is held in the pills, so it's possible that the individual wrapping is more than just annoying.
Welcome rafkamodie! I've never heard of Anise tea, but I will have to give it a shot... my list of things to counteract stomach aches so far are 1.) lactase pills and 2.) gas-x, both of which aren't totally effective..
It's exciting to hear about a natural remedy. do you have any specific brand recommendations?
Tummy Tea looks like what you were talking about.. I'll have to try it.
You should not have to deprive yourself of cheese if you are lactose intolerant. Lactose is a sugar. Read the label of the cheese and if it is 0 sugar, it is lactose free. The general rule is that aged cheeses are more than likely to be 0 sugar than things like American cheese. And velveeta has more lactose in it than the equivalent amount of milk. Also, butter is fine too. I use it all the time. If you like to cook and want to continue to use things like milk, cream and sour cream, I suggest getting these [drops](

You add them to the product and in 24 hours it is lactose free. It does make it a little hard to be spontaneous in the kitchen, but it is better than working with alternatives. I do use soy, almond, etc products but not when it comes to serious cooking or baking. They just fall short when compared to the real thing.
This is a very different, and in my opinion, vastly superior pill option to the every-meal pills: Lacto-Freedom Lactose Intolerance Pills– Patented Lactase Enzyme Supplement – Provides Long Term Relief From Cramps, Gas, Bloating & Diarrhea – 7 Days Dosing Regimen Allows Healthy Dairy Digest https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HU4YOHS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_hoB1Cb81B4FG9
I did the week-long regimen two months ago and am shocked at how well it's worked. I can chug two cups of normal milk with zero issues. YMMV
I will very very very strongly recommend Schiff's Lactose Defense Probiotic. Lactaid did not work for me, and I can eat half a pizza with this without issue. Sold at Amazon, Walmart, Walgreens, and probably more.
I take Philips Colon Health and (2b count) Acidophilus daily.
It doesn't help me digest dairy any better, but it helps my overall gut feeling when eating.
I use Enzymedica brand, it’s expensive but worth it for the occasional meal.

Sorry - not been on Reddit for a few days. So I'm pretty sure it says on the bottle, but I found out by going through the Q & A section of the product description page on Amazon, where I purchased this item. Here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003VSTRY8/.
I've heard that these are pretty good, and dairy-free, but have not actually tried them myself.
I recommend buying the liquid enzyme and mixing it with your milk. This is cheaper than buying pills or buying lactose-free milk.
Trader Joe's has a premade curry in a bottle that's lactose free. It's the red curry. I know they have another style but that one has yogurt in it. Here's the link https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0081TN310/ref=pd_aw_fbt_325_img_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1
If you use amazon, the 12 count travel packs of lactaid sometimes go down to $2. I usually grab a few then.

Are you looking to make something to consume, or give the parent a cookbook to make kid-friendly foods?
I would probably steer clear of making edibles, since if it's that bad, it's quite possibly an allergic reaction rather then lactose intolerance. As a parent, I frankly wouldn't trust someone else to make food for my kid if they were allergic (or even just really intolerant). It's one thing to take a chance myself, but I wouldn't take that same risk with my kid.
For cookbooks, I don't recall how many recipes would appeal to kids, but I've found these two books to be helpful:
The Dairy-Free Kitchen by Ashley Adams
The New Milks by Dina Cheney
I'm sure there are quite a few more, although many are also low FODMAP or gluten-free, which is more than I need, so I find them to be needlessly complicated.
If your gut health isn't as good as it should be you can have some negative side effects such as bloating and gas. As your body adjusts to the bacteria, you should see an ease in those negative symptoms. I would recommend trying to get pre and probiotics from a range of foods as well as trying a probiotic. Fermented foods such as sauerkraut and kimchi have a plethora of beneficial bacteria. With yogurt, make sure that the brand is low in sugar. Sugar feeds the unhealthy stuff, like candida further causing digestive discomfort.
Here is a probiotic that is cost effective, without any added fillers.. https://www.amazon.com/Flourish-Probiotics-Women-Lactobacillus-Saccharomyces/dp/B07KFPCCLP
My bad! I didn't realize it was the pills. I looked it up and yeah, ours have lactose as well! However, at zero calories per tablet, it can't be more than 1/8 gram of lactose (basing this on the US version found here.)
Consider getting some lactase pills. They basically cut my symptoms in half if I take enough. Just take some right as you take your first bite of lactose.
The only other way I "prepare" is not eating any dairy in the week leading up to the day I plan to eat a ton of dairy. But I think you've got that covered.
If I do that, the more unpleasant symptoms usually don't kick in until the next day. But everyone's body is different.
I hope you can make it work!
