Smart Balance Kids and a Giveaway!

Man, oh man is it hard to figure out a time to blog when you have two kids. If I’m not feeding Burke, I’m tending to Molly and when she’s napping I’m napping or working or doing something for myself! My amazing mother-in-law leaves this weekend and I don’t know how I’m going to do everything without her. The second I sit down to feed Burke it seems as though Molly needs something — milk, toast, bar, etc. Typical!

Well, speaking of milk… Smart Balance reached out to me about their new Kids Milk line. They have three different kinds of milk and I can’t wait to try them out, especially because there are NO artificial growth hormones. Here is some info on the milk:

VARIETIES:

12-24 months: Smart Balance® Kids Transitions Whole Milk & Nutrient Blend (red carton)

Many pediatricians recommend whole milk as children transition from formula or breast milk to regular milk. Smart Balance Transitions delivers all the goodness of whole milk, and select nutrients for a strong nutritional foundation during this critical period of development. Two glasses a day deliver:

• DHA & EPA Omega-3s: to support brain & heart health
• Calcium & Vitamin D: to support strong bones
• Prebiotics: to support normal digestion
• Iron: for healthy growth & development

Kids 2+: Smart Balance® Kids Reduced Fat Milk & Nutrient Blend (Blue carton)

For active growing kids. Many pediatricians recommend that children switch from whole milk to reduced fat milk after 2 years of age. Regular 2% milk is part of a well balanced diet.

• DHA & EPA Omega-3s: to support brain & heart health
• 30% Calcium & 50% Vitamin D: to support strong bones
• Antioxidant Vitamins C & E: for a strong immune system

Kids 2+: Smart Balance® Kids Chocolate Low Fat Milk & Nutrient Blend (Brown carton)

Delivers all the goodness of regular milk, and select nutrients for active, growing kids…..in a taste kids love. Made with 1% milk.

(Nutritional benefits the same as Reduced Fat)

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 3 KIDS MILKS:

• Red carton (Kids Transitions 12-24 months) has different nutrients – it has prebiotics, and is whole milk.
• Blue and brown cartons (Kids Chocolate and Kids Reduced Fat) have Vitamins C & E (Red carton does not)
• But they ALL have Omega-3s (EPA & DHA for brian & heart health benefits). Double the Vitamin D; contain no artificial growth hormones; and, Vitamin A.
