Young children can be very picky and none of my children have been exempt. I know if I have yogurt on hand my two boys will always have a healthy snack. When Stonyfield asked us to try their new YoKids Greek Yogurt it was a no brainer.
I have always been a fan of Stonyfield’s YoBaby Yogurt. Karolyn and Kyle both were big fans of the YoBaby with the Blueberry variety being their favorite. As Karolyn got older she decided yogurt was gross but my boys still love it and eat it many days a week.
We are graduated out of the YoBaby now that Wyatt is 2. We have moved onto the YoKids with the strawberry/vanilla and blueberry combo being our favorite combo pack. My kids love the rich taste and wonderful texture. I love that it has 25% less sugar than the leading kid’s yogurt. Yo Kids is also USDA organic so I know I am giving my children something nutritious without any of those nasty chemicals lurking in the background.
The YoKids Greek was totally new for us so we were excited to try it. If your child eats yogurt as much as mine do, you will know it is a totally new product. YoKids Greek is the very first organic Greek
yogurt made especially for children. Each container contains 100 calories and just 1 gram of fat. It contains 6g of Protein and 20% of your child’s daily needs of both Vitamin D and Calcium. This makes YoKids Greek a wonderful snack choice for your child. It also contains their exclusive blend of 6 live cultures: S. Thermophilus, L.Bulgaricus, L.Acidophilus Bifidus, L.Casei And L.Rhamnosus. These cultures aide in digestive health as well as overall health and well being.
I did have a bit of a problem finding YoKids Greek Yogurt as it was not sold in the grocery store at which I shop. I did eventually find out that it is currently sold in Target stores. It comes as a 4-pack of either Raspberry or Strawberry flavored yogurt. Wyatt absolutely loved it. The rich texture and tanginess you would expect from Greek Yogurt were definitely present. I actually liked it too because it wasn’t too sweet like most of the other brands marketed towards children.
Right now Stonyfield is offering you an opportunity to try out YoKids Greek Yogurt by winning some great coupons.

By now everyone knows how much my Buddy means to me. Lately, I’ve been getting even more obsessed with my dog (if that’s even possible). Last week we were playing and I noticed that he was starting to turn grey around his nose. This sent me into a panic attack! Buddy is 5 years old, but my son is 18 and leaving home soon. I can’t lose Buddy; he’s the only thing that is going to keep me going once Jake leaves. So now I’m being extra careful about what I give him to eat. SmartBones is a healthy vegan alternative to the old rawhide.
Buddy’s nutrition is no less important than mine. He has to eat well if he’s going to stay fit and have a long life. Did you know that rawhides are thought by some people to be dangerous for your dog? Rawhide does not break down, so there is a high risk of choking and they are extremely hard for a dog to digest, which could cause stomach and intestine problems. SmartBones have no rawhide; they are made by combining multiple vegetables and processing them with chicken jerky, so they are all natural and 99% digestible. SmartBones have a delicious center strip that is also made of only the best healthy ingredients like real chicken, corn and peanut butter.
I gave Buddy a SmartBone in chicken flavor. Buddy is a bit of a Diva, go figure. He won’t eat anything I throw at him. He loved his SmartBone. He took it outside to chomp on in the front yard where all the neighbor dogs could see him, like I said Diva. It lasted about 10 minutes, which is about as long as anything Buddy really likes lasts. He seemed pretty happy and I felt better giving him something other than rawhide. After all, he’s the best dog ever, how could I take any chances with his health?
SmartBones can be found at your local pet supply stores. Don’t take any chances with your dog’s health. To learn more go to www.smartbones.com
Right now 2 lucky readers can win a bag of SmartBones for their best four legged friends.
