New Danimals® SuperStars Greek Lowfat Yogurt Combines Great Taste and Nutrients to Help Kids Power Up for Adventures

How goes it at your house feeding your children at mealtime?  For me, I started off with one picky eater and now I have two, thanks to monkey see, monkey do.  Savannah has always been a fussy eater, and will only eat a handful of foods, which I switch up.  But, now our youngest is seeing this and turning away foods she usually eats because her big sister is looking at it and saying, "Yuck!'  So, as you can imagine the kitchen at my house is crazy come mealtime, and now I get to add mealtime to another stressful time of day with the girls, next to them skipping their naps. Ugh.  But, one thing I don't have to worry about fighting with the girls about it their snacking.  

Being a health educator by trade, I am concscious about what I feed my girls and keep in the house.  The last thing I need is for them to have a sugar overload and be more hyper than they usually are without sugar, or asking for unhealthy snacks after turning away their lunch or dinner.  One snack I always make a point to have on hand, that is also great for on-the-go is Danimals greek lowfat yogurts.  Since my oldest starting eating solid foods, we have been buying and stocking up on Danimals products, and offering to the kids when they are looking to recharge their batteries, or just have a yummy treat.  Shh, don't tell them this Danimals is good for them.  :-)

So, when I heard about the folks at Dannon launching a new product to their already popular Danimals product line, I just had to reach out and see about reviewing the new Danimals® SuperStars Greek Lowfat Yogurt.  Within a few days of my request, a cooler filled with Danimals® SuperStars Greek Lowfat Yogurt, along with a sampling of other Danimals products arrived at my door.  I wish you could have seen the girls' faces as I unloaded the cooler and filled the refrigerator with the Danimals® SuperStars Greek Lowfat Yogurt, Danimals smoothies and Danimals Crunchers varieties.  

Savannah was the first to notice the new Danimals® SuperStars Greek Lowfat Yogurt cups and wanted to try them.  

With 10g of protein per 4oz cup, Danimals SuperStars contains twice as much protein as regular lowfat yogurts*. Danimals SuperStars Greek Lowfat Yogurts can help provide kids with the nutrition they need. Each cup is a good source of calcium and Vitamin D, which help build strong bones, along with an excellent source of protein (25 percent of the Daily Value)."

Luckily, the girls had cooperated for the day and had eaten their lunch, so I didn't hesitate in offering them one of these new Danimals® SuperStars Greek Lowfat Yogurt to try.  Both girls chose to sample the Danimals SuperStars cotton candy flavored cup.  And, as soon as the spoon hit their lips, in unison, they both said, "Yum, this is good stuff."  "Yes! we have another winner," I thought to myself, as I watched as the girls continued to spoon this delicious snack into their mouths.  

 The benefits of Danimals SuperStars:

While enjoying the cotton candy Danimals SuperStars cup, I heard them making a game plan on what flavor and product to try next.  Savannah was quick to tell Bella that she saw a cup with colored sprinkles that looked like it would taste good.  :-)

Over the course of the week, the girls helped me review the assorted Danimals products sent our way.  When it came time to give me the final verdict and let me know which of the Danimals SuperStars flavors of the two we were sent, they struggled to come up with an answer, as they both tasted so good and were their favorites!  I couldn't argue with this.  They also raved about the Danimals Smoothies, which have been a hit in our house for quite some time.  

"With fruity flavors packed into a nutritious drink, Danimals Smoothies will be a go-to favorite. Give 'em to your kids as they head out to play with friends! And look out for our seasonal varieties, including Orange Scream, Winter Brrr-berry, Mixed Berry Jelly Bean, and Striking Rainbow Sherbet!"

When it comes to drinking these smoothies, Savannah likes to use a straw and take slow sips, while Bella will pull a bottle from the fridge, peel back the cover and chug away.  So much for being lady like, right? :-)  Hey, I can't complain, as they are enjoying a nutritional snack, that has no artificial colors or flavors and no high fructose corn syrup.

Other fun Danimals products that kids will go crazy for include, and that make for great snacking at home or on-the-go include:

"Kids love the crunch, moms love the goodness! Danimals Crunchers with grahams combines delicious nonfat yogurt with crunchy grahams that kids will love to dunk, crunch, and munch. Pack ‘em in the cooler for a tasty afternoon snack at the family picnic!"

"Our New Danimals Crunchers varieties combine delicious nonfat yogurt with fun rainbow sprinkles and chocolate candies that kids will love to crunch, mix and munch! Give 'em to your kids for a fun playtime treat!"

"Danimals nonfat yogurt is a good source of Calcium and Vitamin D, and contains no high fructose corn syrup, artificial colors, or artificial flavors. Your kids will love it! Take 'em on the go – remember to bring a spoon!"

"Danimals® Smoothie Max has more than twice the Danimals Smoothie goodness and twice the fun! Available in delicious flavors, it’s a great snack for your kids’ big time adventures! You’ll feel good about giving them to your kids because each Smoothie Max is an excellent source of calcium and vitamin D."
