Thank you to Milton’s Craft Bakers and Brainiac Kids for partnering with me on this post!
What is the key to keeping your littles happy? To prevent the meltdowns, convince them into taking the family photo, or making dinner at a restaurant a little more manageable? I know that all my mamas are responding with a resounding… SNACKS!
I keep them in the car, in my purse, in my kitchen, and just about any odd spot you can think of. I specifically add a list of kid friendly snacks to my weekly grocery list when I work on my meal plan.
In my Meal Planning For The Busy Mom Ebook, I share my list of things we buy EVERY week at the grocery store so we always have our must-have items in stock. I also give ideas for easy + affordable lunch ideas, snack ideas, and dinner ideas with kids in mind! I’ve shared a little SNEAK PEEK below:
I know it can be a little bit overwhelming to start meal planning, that’s why I wrote a complete guide for busy mamas just like you. You can check it out HERE! I guarantee it will save you time and money each week!
Our Favorite Applesauce Squeezers
For at least a year, we have been stocking up on Brainiac Kids Smart Squeezers applesauce pouches aka “happy apples” as the boys call them! These pouches are made with the really good stuff… packed with Omega-3s and Choline, brain nutrients for those little brains that are still developing!
They are non-GMO and contain no soy, nuts, or gluten! Perfect for your littles with certain allergies. On average, kids are only getting 20% of their Omega-3 DHA/EPA needs. With one serving of these Applesauce pouches with BrainPack, they get up to 90%! These are a GREAT grab-and-go, no mess snack for your littles!
We plan to have Brainiac’s pouches handy all summer long to take with us to the beach and pool and most certainly as we near back-to-school season!
Best part, you can grab them on AMAZON and 20% off this weekend for Memorial Day! Use code 20BrainSnack for 20% off Brainiac snacks on Amazon or Brainiacfoods.com.
A Cheesy Snack We Are Loving
We recently found Milton’s Cheesy Cheddars and are loving them! You’ve probably already heard me rave about their cracker selection in past because I’ve shared them before with my yummy chicken salad recipe! The new Cheesy Cheddars taste like the nostalgic cheese cracker we all LOVED as kids, now all grown up and certified organic and no-GMO Project Verified! You can find them at your local grocery store here!
