Snack Pack with New EZO Lids are Perfect for Your Back-to-School Lunchboxes

August 30, 2015 by Kathryn 37 Comments

With the new school year almost here, I’m stocking up on my boys’ favourite lunch meals and snacks. Luckily for me, they both like fairly basic, easy-to-find items like fruit cups and ham sandwiches. And of course, no lunch is complete without a Hunt’s Snack Pack pudding cup in my boys’ minds! Zackary favours butterscotch and Benjamin prefers chocolate, but both of them agree that Snack Pack pudding is delicious!

The only thing my boys didn’t love about Snack Pack is how hard the pudding cups were to open. Zackary could generally get the lid off eventually, though he sometimes made a mess in the process. Benjamin never could manage to pull off the lids and had to have me, or else a teacher, do it for him. But now that’s changed with the brand new Snack Pack EZO lids! [Read more…]

Get Ready To Pack Lunches Kids Will Love with Nude Food Movers (formerly Boomerang)

August 13, 2015 by Kathryn 135 Comments

The new school year is creeping up faster than I would like, but I have to admit that there’s one part of the back-to-school season I absolutely love…shopping for new school gear! And lunch gear has always been a personal favourite of mine. Gone are the days of squished sandwiches in plastic bags and paper lunch sacks thrown into the trash. Now there are tons of fun, kid-friendly lunch containers that help ensure eco-friendly and delicious lunches!

Nude Food Movers (formerly Boomerang Food Movers) is one of the newest Canadian providers of litterless lunch supplies, and recently I had the chance to review the company’s products for myself. I received a plethora of products including Litterless Snack Tubes, Sandwich Wraps and Meal Boxes. The bright colours and convenient sizes had me actually wishing I were packing school lunches already! [Read more…]

Kids Will Love the Nutty Taste of #DarePeanutFree Bear Paws and Wagon Wheels with Wowbutter-Giveaway

September 17, 2014 by Kathryn 205 Comments

I’m very lucky to have two boys that so far don’t have any food allergies, but of course not everyone we know is so lucky. Our small-town school is very reasonable about peanut allergies and each year the teachers inventory the students and limit foods allowed in lunches on a class-by-class basis. The first few years, Zackary was still able to take peanut butter sandwiches and other nut-filled treats to school, as nobody in his class was allergic. But this year both of my boys have children with peanut allergies in their class.

That means I need to be careful when I’m packing snacks because, as the teachers say, if a snack isn’t labelled as being peanut-free, it’s not safe to send to school. So I was thrilled to learn about the new Dare Bear Paws and Wagon Wheels snacks made with Wowbutter! These treats use peanut-free Wowbutter, a spread that tastes just like peanut butter, to let kids enjoy a great nutty-tasting treat without actually eating nuts! [Read more…]

Experience #FigLove with 100% Natural #NaturesBakeryPtc Fig Bars-Giveaway

September 3, 2014 by Kathryn 61 Comments

This post was created in partnership with Nature’s Bakery. All thoughts and opinions are my own.


Now that school is back in session, finding tasty snacks for my boys’ lunches is a top priority for me and it’s not always a job that’s easy. I like to choose healthy and natural foods whenever possible, but I still want the snacks I pack for them to be delicious. Nature’s Bakery understand how I feel and its 100% natural Fig Bars have already become a family favourite in this house.

Available in a variety of different mouth-watering flavours, these fig bars are dairy free, cholesterol free, kosher and non-GMO. Containing wholesome ingredients such as stone-ground wheat, oats and fruit, they’re a more wholesome choice than the store-bought cookies my boys favour, yet still taste amazing. And they’re nice and filling to help Zackary and Benjamin feel satisfied for the entire school day.

Come Join the @MilkUnleashed #MilkUnleashed Twitter Party Sept. 3 at 8pm CST

August 29, 2013 by Kathryn 4 Comments

I can’t believe that summer is already over and here in Saskatchewan, the weather apparently can’t believe it either because it’s been gorgeous! The boys and I have been spending the last few days of August swimming, playing at the splash park and languishing in the back yard to make the most of the end of summer.

But on Tuesday, that all ends as Zackary starts Grade 2 and Benjamin begins Pre-Kindergarten. Benjamin’s classes are four half-days a week and it will be my first year having both my boys in school for so long. It will also be the first time I have to pack lunches and snacks for both my boys almost every day!
