From Pouch to Parfait!

Lunch Made Easy with Stonyfield Organic Kid's Yogurt Pouches

It’s lunchtime and your child is asking to help make lunch again.  The potential destruction of the kitchen is at the forefront of your mind.  You imagine a loaf of bread all taken out of the bag along with peanut butter and jelly smeared across the countertops and subsequently a child covered in the same thing.  You want your kids to help and are excited that they are offering but how do you as a parent have them help, make something nutritious, and not destroy the kitchen (and your sanity) in the meantime? 




Pouches of all kinds have been all the rage lately and for good reason! They are convenient, clean (unless squeezed other places than the mouth! haha), and a healthy on-the-go option for our kids!  They are a good “side” to have with something else but did you know that you can use these to make a complete meal?  Stonyfield Organic Kids yogurt pouches make lunchtime easy, quick, kid-friendly and healthy! 

We were able to share some pouches with a few of our friends and they were a hit!  Each kid sucked down their yogurt pouches in no time! One great thing about Stonyfield Organic Kids yogurt pouches is that they are made with wholesome ingredients, without GMOs or toxic persistent pesticides. Another great thing is that many of these pouches come with hidden veggies.  Can I get a “Hallelujah?!” My kids never seem to get enough veggies so I love that these have veggies in such a way that they are concealed by the delicious fruit flavor so my kids don’t find me out.  If your kid reads…that’s a whole other story! 

My kids were so excited to try these pouches and to make lunch on their own.  My one daughter has been into all things “fancy” and decided that parfaits were the thing she and her siblings just HAD to make!  It was quick, easy, and painless for me.  Best of all my kids loved that they made their own lunch and it was fancy!  I was happy they were able to feel like they achieved something great and thrilled it was with something healthy for them.  They decided to make a quick video showing you just how easy it is!
