Creating New Year resolutions for a healthier eating habits for kids. #chobanikids #ad

img_0880For the last year I’ve been working with Chobani to share my family’s love for their products. With a new year upon us, we as parents will talk about dieting and eating healthier.  Well, maybe this year it shouldn’t just be talk… maybe that means filling it with healthier foods, especially for kids.  It’s so easy to fall into bad snacking habits for kids – I know it’s happens to us from time to time… you’re on the go, it’s cheaper, it’s sometimes easier…. but for the better part of the last year we’ve been eating Chobani Kids Greek Yogurt Tubes… I learned to keep 3 tubes in the freezer at all times, cause as we get up and go we don’t have to worry about keeping them cold – they’ll melt into the perfect Greek Yogurt snack.  Made with creamy lowfat yogurt, real fruit, and with 5g of protein and 25% less sugar than the leading kids’ yogurt it’s simply a healthier choice.

Bottom line of why I’m choosing Chobani Kids Greek Yogurt as a snack choice:

  • Less Sugar. Chobani Kids Greek Yogurt Pouches contain 25% less sugar than leading kids’ yogurt*.
  • More Protein. Chobani Kids Greek Yogurt Pouches contain 2x protein than leading kids’ yogurt*.
  • Only Natural ingredients. Chobani Kids and Tots Pouches and Tubes are made with only natural, non-GMO ingredients, with no artificial flavors, sweeteners or preservatives.

Only Natural ingredients. Chobani Tots Pouches are made with only natural, non-GMO ingredients, with no artificial flavors, sweeteners or preservatives.

unnamedSo good for her foods like Chobani Kids Tubes and Pouches like are amazing to share after a day at school or even pop into my older one’s lunchbox.  It’s been our go-to snack for a while now, and our daughters love them.  Since our youngest two see our son who’s now in the 3rd grade carry a lunch to school – I like knowing that he’s setting a good example. His lunches typically contain a Chobani Kids Greek Yogurt tube, his favorite new Strawberry Banana. Those character’s don’t make for a hard sell either. It helps re-enforce the health eating habits and it’s a food I can feel good about filled with protein and real fruits.  Packing lunches and trying to find a good nutritional snacks can be difficult but neither of those are my problems when my child’s plate looks like this…

As we get into the Back-to-School groove in our house we’re constantly looking for new ways to make lunches fun and good for our little ones. Chobani is helping parents by sharing some “swap out” ideas – check it out here.
