Organic Slammers Fruit Pouches Add Fruity Fun to School Lunches-Giveaway

September 13, 2017 by Kathryn 87 Comments

Another school year is off to a busy start and that means I’m diving into another year of packing lunches! I’m lucky that my boys aren’t too picky when it comes to lunchtime meals but, like most kids, they do prefer sweet, pre-packaged, not-very-healthy snacks.

That’s why I’m happy that I added Organic Slammers fruit pouches to my lunch routine this year. These delicious snacks contain both fruit and vegetables for a wholesome addition to the lunchbox that’s also kid-friendly! I received Chill’N Slammers and Awesome Slammers to test out recently and my boys couldn’t have been happier to see the pouches in their lunch boxes.

GoGo SqueeZ Fruit Pouches are Great for Kids and the Environment-Giveaway

October 20, 2015 by Kathryn 82 Comments

While I know many parents dread packing lunches, I’ve never minded the job that much. And part of the reason for that is the fact that my boys are very easy to please when it comes to the meals and snacks I give them. A deli meat sandwich, a string cheese stick, pudding and a package of fruit snacks are almost all I need to keep them full and happy. Of course, no lunch is complete without a pureed fruit pouch as far as my kids are concerned!

I’d never tried the popular GoGo SqueeZ fruit pouches before, however, so when the company offered me the chance to test out the pouches and learn a little more about the company, I couldn’t resist. I received an assortment of GoGo SqueeZ flavours and a sleek green messenger bag to review and pulled out a box of GoGo SqueeZ Apple Grape for the next lunches I packed.

Halloween is Healthier with Go Gourmet Squoosh Fruit Pouches-Giveaway

October 6, 2015 by Kathryn 126 Comments

In just a few weeks, one of my very favourite holidays will be arriving…Halloween! I’m notorious for going overboard with food, decorations and treats during almost every holiday celebration, but Halloween has always been one of my personal favourites. Custom tombstones, creative costumes and more help to make the day one that my boys and I anticipate for weeks in advance.

But there’s no doubt that all the candy involved in the holiday isn’t necessarily the healthiest choice for little ones. And I learned years ago that switching up those treats for something different, and ideally healthier, isn’t disappointing for little ones at all. In fact, they often get extra excited about getting a more original addition to their treat bag!

Kids and Parents Will Both Love New Kids Gourmet Slammers SuperFood Snacks-Giveaway

January 12, 2015 by Kathryn 134 Comments

When my boys were toddlers, they loved Baby Gourmet Squoosh Snacks. In fact, they enjoyed eating the squeezable pouches of pureed organic fruit right up into their school days. And why not? The pouches are portable, mess-free, healthy and taste great! But unfortunately, since the products are targeted towards infants, they have a design that’s more baby than big kid.

That’s why I was so excited to learn that Baby Gourmet’s sister company, Kids Gourmet, had created a brand new organic fruit pouch like the ones my boys used to love so much with a size and design that’s perfect for school-aged children. New Kids Gourmet Slammers SuperFood Snacks come in four delicious flavours to fuel your kids with the energy they need anytime and anywhere.
