For a snack, Aidan loves pudding so one day I slipped in a Yoplait yogurt and ever since he is hooked. I think he loves it because he sees me eating it and he thinks it is junk food, since I snack a lot! So practically everyday I let him snack on a Yoplait kids yogurt, his favorite is the Trix kind. I love that I can feel good about letting him have the Yoplait since it is actually healthy for him.
Yoplait for kids helps build strong bones since it contains just the right amount of Vitamin D and Calcium. So there is no more trying to sneak in extra vitamins here and there into his diet and since he loves the Trix yogurt he is eating less junk food. I also read too that “Research has shown that fewer than half of all kids ages two to 12 get the calcium they need each day.” Wow, that one really surprised me! Luckily, Aidan is at least eating his yogurt and getting calcium and Vitamin D, I can’t say much about any other food though!
What’s so great about Yoplait Kids? Well not only does it have a smooth texture that is perfect for sensitive eaters also, but it comes in lots of yummy flavors. Worried about sugar? Yoplait kids has 25% less sugar than the average leading kids yogurts. It even has DHA for your child’s growing brain development. Finally, another aspect of Yoplait kids is that it does have a “spoon-hugging” texture, which means it actually sticks to the spoon long enough for him to get it to his mouth and not drip it everywhere. I never really thought about how important thickness consistencies were until I started letting Aidan feed himself and thanks to Yoplait when I start Gavin on yogurt he can work on him himself too!
Thanks to My Blog Spark, I received an awesome Yoplait for kids coupon for a FREE pack of yogurt and a Yoplait Get Active Prize Pack. So not only can I get some more yogurt for Aidan but he can also play and since the yogurt builds strong bones, enabling healthy and active bodies, Aidan can go outside and play with his prize pack. He doesn’t quite know how to jump rope, but he is loving the outdoor game set! With summertime coming up, I can’t wait to get him back outside and active as I feel like we’ve been cooped up for so long, that we are forgetting what the sun feels like!
Guess what!? My Blog Spark has teamed up with Yoplait to offer Three (3) of my readers:
- Coupon for free 6 pack of Yoplait for Kids yogurt
- Travel cooler (to of course take your yogurt on the road with you!)
- Jump Rope
- Water bottle
- Outdoor Game Set ( includes beach ball, paddle ball, Jai-Ali, and a Frisbee)

We stay healthy by setting up a badmitton court in our yard. We don’t take it down often (mowing) and so it’s there on the spur of the moment. Also, we take long walks with our dog. She also loves to chase us around the yard. Our dog is really the key to us keeping active.

How we stay active? I always thought that we always were, until I stopped working. That’s when I realized how much time the kids stay inside in front of the t.v. We have since cancelled our satellite, and we are practically outside all the time. (except nap time when I try to win these giveaways!)
We love to garden, fish, take walks, play football, swim, etc. as a family! Plus, the kids sleep better at night after being in the sun!
