If your kids are always begging you for snacks and you cringe when you read the labels of certain conventional brands, it’s time to step away from those national brands and look for something better. I love grocery shopping with my son, but when we pass by aisles of brightly colored and insanely sweet foods, I know that temptation for kids can be a dangerous thing.

But fear not, for there are companies out there who are conscious of what they sell to the general public – specifically kids. They know that parents want what’s best for their kids and even if you can’t afford it all the time, in the long run, it’s still better for their health. Kids are more susceptible to things that they touch and food that they eat so we should be extra diligent in what we put in their tummies.

Sometimes it’s inevitable to avoid conventional foods, but if you had a choice in purchases, it’s better to go for the healthier versions. One brand, who has only improved throughout the years is Van’s Natural Foods. We’ve enjoyed Van’s Natural Foods for many years now and I’m amazed at the new products that they come out with every so often. In our household we always have at least one of Van’s Natural Foods products and it’s most likely their frozen waffles or chocolate chip pancakes since they are easy to heat up and taste great with some maple syrup over them.

New from Van’s Natural Foods this year are their Multigrain Chips, PB&J Sandwich Bars, and Love Your Heart Waffles. The Multigrain Chips come in two super yummy flavors: Mighty Good BBQ and Nacho, Nacho Man and I have to say that I could not stop eating them. Their new multigrain chips are delicately crunchy, incredibly light and airy, and perfectly seasoned. And since they are baked, they’re generally a lot healthier than fried chips. Both multigrain chips are made with Van’s signature gluten free whole grain blend and are made with non-GMO sunflower oil as well as other delicious and wholesome natural ingredients. Van’s PB&J Sandwich Bars are delightfully light in flavor and has a slightly sweet and nutty flavor. So if you really like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches you’ll really enjoy their new PB&J Sandwich Bars. Since they are smaller in size, you can pack them easily in your bag or lunch bag for a healthy and convenient snack. Van’s Love Your Heart Waffles are also made with their 8 whole grain mix which consists of Whole Wheat, Barley, Oat, Brown Rice, Dark Rye, Quinoa, Amaranth and Millet Flours. All of these new products are added to their already comprehensive lineup of healthy and delicious snacks and breakfast treats.

Van’s Natural Foods have been in the natural food business for over 40 years and have dedicated themselves in providing the best tasting and good-for-you food that you can find. From cereal to crackers to frozen pancakes, you’ll probably find a few products to keep around. I don’t always have time to make my own pancakes so I just pop in some Van’s frozen pancakes and we’ve got a convenient and wholesome breakfast. Van’s Natural Foods are suitable for those on a gluten free diet and they are Non-GMO Project Certified.

The good folks at Van’s Natural Foods had sent me their newest products to try and also wanted to give 1 LUCKY reader of Happymomblogger the opportunity to try their products as well. The winner of the prize will win 4 FREE product coupons  (2 for dry line and 2 for frozen products) and a branded shopping tote. I love their shopping tote as it’s a heavy duty bag and can go practically anywhere with you. So how do you win this wonderful prize? Read below to find out!

Growing up, my parents have always taught me to eat healthy and to choose wisely. It wasn’t always easy for a young girl to go to school with a lunchbox full of sliced vegetables and fruits rather than the sugar-laden Twinkies and sodas many of my classmates brought. Although at that time I really didn’t have a choice as to what I wanted to bring for school lunches, I am glad today that the lessons of wholesome nutrition stayed as a guideline to how I view food.

Now, I teach my son the same, if not similar lessons about eating healthy and making healthy food choices. While times have changed quite a bit thirty years ago and the food industry has expanded more than what we imagined, we as individuals can still decide what we eat and why we should eat them. With the threat of toxic pesticides and “Frankenstein” foods on the horizon, it’s even more imperative that we support not only our own bodies but the companies who strive to make healthier and better products.

Stonyfield Organic (http://www.stonyfield.com/), a well known organic and natural food company has always believed that what we put in our bodies directly influences what we put into our earth. With eating and buying organically grown foods, we are not only helping to protect our precious bodies, but also the planet that supports the land which produces them. Organic food choices shouldn’t be a guessing game or even an issue. It’s simply a wiser choice for people of any age or gender. But more importantly, for children who are constantly growing and looking to us parents as guides to their future.

I’ve been supporting, buying, and eating organic foods for many years now and while they can get pretty expensive, I leverage what is worth buying organic all the time and what can be skipped now and then. Even before I was pregnant, I made sure to always eat as many organically-grown foods as possible and fed my son solely organic meals when he was a baby. While this may be hard for some people, it’s important to plan ahead if you’re on an organically inclined budget. Organic isn’t impossible and can be easily achieved whether you grow your own edible garden or purchase products from your local store. In the future I hope organic food will be the mainstream in all markets and eradicate all illnesses caused by toxic food. That being said, many of you may already know of the company, Stonyfield Organic and their sole purpose in providing healthier food choices to children and adults alike. While no company or product is perfect, Stonyfield Farm takes making their organic and natural food products very seriously.

Stonyfield started over 30 years ago as a grassroots initiative to educate and provide people with healthier food choices. Once they knew how to make their own yogurt using their own farm cows, the need for more of their organic products grew and 30 years later, Stonyfield became a popular household food staple. I know that in my home, Stonyfield Organic became the prevalent yogurt choice as my son practically grew up eating them since he was just a baby. We always have some kind of Stonyfield yogurt in our fridge as not only are they affordable, but there are quite an assortment of products to choose from. Their newest products are their organic whole milk yogurt pouches and it comes in three different varieties – yobaby, yotoddler, and yokids. We’ve tried all of them and they all contain similar ingredients except for the slight differences in nutritional percentage.

As an ongoing Stonyfield reviewer, I was given the opportunity to try their newest yobaby squeezable yogurt pouches. What I find really neat about the squeezable pouches is that the cap is resealable so if your little kiddo can’t finish the yogurt in one sitting, you can just twist the cap back on, stick it in the fridge, and save it for later. And rest assured, all of Stonyfield pouches and containers are made without the use of BPA so there are no fear of the toxic plastic leaking into your yogurts. My son thoroughly enjoys squeezing the yogurt pouches into his mouth andI have to admit, it’s a fun experience for me as well.

Stonyfield would also like to give 1 LUCKY reader of Happymomblogger the opportunity to try their new yobaby organic whole milk yogurt pouches on their own. The winner will receive 10 FREE product coupons to pick up the new Yobaby yogurt pouches at their local store for any flavor.  Currently they only have blueberry, mango, sweet potato, and vanilla flavors but each of them have such different flavor profiles your kids will easily enjoy them all. So how do you win this yummy prize? Read below to find out!

Someone once asked, “is it necessary to eat vitamins every day?” Well, that all depends on why you take certain vitamins and supplements. With controversy on whether taking vitamins and supplements really help the body or not, health experts still agree that certain degrees of vitamins and supplements does actually enhance the body’s natural balance. Look at it this way – there’s no possible way in this day and age to eat a complete balanced diet on a daily basis. I know for me it  can be hard to do since I’m a vegetarian, and that’s why I supplement with vitamins and other important minerals. When asked my son’s pediatrician on the topic he agreed that a multivitamin for children can’t hurt as long as they are not solely relying on vitamins to nourish their bodies and minds.

However, buying the right brand is essentially crucial to the quality of vitamins you get. As an avid label reader and researcher, it’s very important to me that labeling is clear and concise without any hidden agendas behind them. After all, these vitamins are just as important as the food you intake if not more so. When it comes to buying vitamins and supplements for me and my family I have to make sure to get the highest quality and from a reputable company. One company who has been in the vitamin and supplements industry for almost 30 years is Nordic Naturals (http://www.nordicnaturals.com/consumers.php). Known for their extensive knowledge of Omega Fatty Acids, Nordic Naturals sells vitamins and supplements that nourish the important functions in your brain and body. They are recognized worldwide and can be found in natural product stores as well as mainstream supermarkets.

Nordic Naturals derived from Norway, shared a value of bringing the highest quality of fish oils to their consumers for the purpose of providing excellent supplements for anyone of any age. They have vitamins ranging from adult Omegas 3,6,9 to products specifically for the heart, eyes, and brain, as well as Omega supplements for children. Recently included in their newest lineup of products is the much needed Vitamin C which comes in a soft gummy form – perfect for kids and adults who hate taking anything in pill form. The Vitamin C gummies is actually pretty tasty and easy to chew and I think it’s great for kids as the vitamin is shaped like a cute little orange slice which makes it  incredibly fun for them to eat. And since they pack 250 mg of Vitamin C per serving (which is 2 gummies), that’s a lot more of vitamin C you may get on a normal basis if you were to eat just fruits and vegetables alone. As with most people and especially children, we don’t get quite enough of the essential vitamin C that we’re supposed to so supplementing with a vitamin is a good way of getting enough of what we need.

Nordic Naturals Vitamin C offers an essential nutrient that kids need for growth and development. In addition to supporting many of the body’s physiological functions, vitamin C helps optimize immunity and provides antioxidant protection. And as with all products made by Nordic Naturals, there are no artificial coloring, flavoring, or preservatives. No animal byproducts are used so it’s suitable for vegetarians as well. And really, with the sweet tangy taste and the adorable shape, how you can go wrong with offering this to your kids as well as to yourself?

The wonderful folks at Nordic Naturals provided me with a couple bottles of their newest Vitamin C Gummies and my son, husband, and I all enjoy taking it every day. Because they are in a sweet gummy form, there are no fights about taking vitamins or debates about why vitamin C is so important. In fact, my son even reminds me everyday to take them. I’m so glad that Nordic Naturals came out with a gummy form of vitamin C that is suitable for practically anyone of any age. And if giving your kids vitamins is like starting World War 3, then give Nordic Naturals a try. Ranging from their gummies to their liquids, you’ll definitely find something for everyone.

The weather is hot, really hot here where I live. It’s so hot that my school won’t let us go outside because we might melt. So instead, on our weekly Nature Class, the nature lady came and taught us all about ladybugs and the things they do. It was pretty cool but also kind of scary as we saw one of the pet spiders eat a ladybug. The spider caught the ladybug in its web, rolled it up and then kept it there in her web. My teacher told me that spiders eat ladybugs and that’s what they do. They keep their food rolled up in the web until they are ready to eat them.

As a cool project, we got to take home a ladybug of our own. My teacher put my ladybug inside two plastic cups, put some holes on the top and then taped it up. My ladybug is really great and he does tricks like staying still – that’s one trick he’s mastered. My mom told me that we will have to set the ladybug free though because it won’t last long inside his plastic home. She said that we will place our ladybug in our garden and hopefully it will stay there long enough to do what it’s supposed to do. Ladybugs keep the garden clean by eating other bad bugs. It’s a natural way of keeping your flowers and plants free from the bad bugs. But we only have one ladybug so he’s got a lot of work to do! Anyway, my mom gives my ladybug water and some fresh leaves that we plucked from the garden. My ladybug immediately went to the new leaves and even sat a long time on the water drop drinking the water. I think he was thirsty and hungry. I don’t want to set my ladybug free because he’s cool but I know that I will have to in order for him to be free and live longer.

Below is a picture of my ladybug.

Sadly the next day my ladybug passed away. I guess we didn’t let him outside fast enough and then he just stopped moving. When I got back from school, he wasn’t moving in his home and then that’s when I knew that was it. My poor ladybug. We buried him outside and I put a tombstone on his grave. My mom said that when you bury ladybugs they become part of the the Earth and they continue to do good things for the plants.

Long Live My Ladybug!

There once was a little girl who loved the beauty of words. They fascinated her, entranced her, and took her on impossible journeys. She took that unabashed love for words and used it for reading, writing, and eventually sharing the love of words to anyone she encountered. The love for words stayed with her throughout the years and oftentimes people wonder why her head was always buried in a book, looking up only when she had something important to say. What is it about reading a good book that can take you away to a far-off land ruled by fairies or frighten your socks off  right underneath your bed covers late at night? If you love the feel of those grainy rough papers in between your fingers or even sliding a page on your tablet, then you’ll know that the magic of reading goes far beyond anything your mind can take you. Books are magical yes, but it’s what you take from them that makes it even more powerful.

Each year on April 23, World Book Night (http://www.us.worldbooknight.org/) helps spread the love of reading to the general public. Launched in the U.K. in 2011, the worldwide phenomenon soon became so popular and sought-after that it spread to the United States. The mission is to help those who do not have opportunities to read on a regular basis or simply those who do not understand the importance of a good book. By sponsorship with authors, booksellers, publishers, and other professionals in the literary world, WBN finds “book givers” throughout the US to distribute carefully selected books to those who need a little nudge in reading. Recipients of these books could be children, teens, and even adults who need that extra push to open up a book and start falling in love with the beauty of words. This year I was fortunate to be selected as a Book Giver and my chosen book is Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson. I read Bridge to Terabithia a long time ago when it was first published and watched the movie. Although I didn’t enjoy the movie as much as the book – but really, can you blame that the original book is oftentimes hard to translate onto film – it was still a lot of fun to compare the scenes portrayed on film to the descriptions in the book. I would consider Bridge to Terabithia a good book for preteens and those who want to embark on a little adventure with a boy and a girl. Two unlikely friends bound together to triumph in the end and may even remind all of us that our minds can take us on journeys beyond the farthest stars, beyond the greatest adventures in our hearts.

Reading isn’t just meant for schools or as mandatory homework. If that was the case then there wouldn’t be artists or musicians or writers. Our civilization would be dull and uninspiring and we wouldn’t appreciate how the colors of a flower can be described in a hundred ways or what would be the safest way to bungee jump off a mountainous cliff. Words inspire us, transport us, and changes us in ways that only words can do. So take up a good book, find a comfy chair and let your mind enter the realm of words. You won’t be sorry for it.

Right now, you can download the World Book Night eBook for free ( for a limited time) at: http://eworldbooknight.org/ for brief stories of popular literature. Download and share. Read and share.

As a WBN book giver, I am also given the opportunity to give The Bridge to Terabithia to one of my lucky readers. For this particular giveaway, the winner has to share the book with someone who doesn’t have a lot of opportunities to read. For me, reading is very important – no matter the genre. So in order to qualify for future giveaways, I ask that you return to my blog and write a brief review of the book, Bridge to Terabithia. And the person you share the book with (if they are old enough to write a review) must share their thoughts as well on my blog. I will email the details to the winner after one has been selected.

So how do you win this wonderful book: Bridge to Terabithia? The entry is easy. Simply “Like” World Book Night on Facebook: (https://www.facebook.com/worldbooknightusa). Then tell me in the comments section what your favorite book is and commit that you would write a review of the book you won within 3 weeks of receiving the book. Please also share the book with someone and who you are planning on sharing it with.

*You can enter by providing the above comments in the LEAVE A COMMENT box. Please be sure to give me your name and email address so that I may contact you if you win. Contest is open to residents of US only. 18 years and older please. Please be sure to provide a physical address and not a P.O. Box. Only 1 contestant per household please. Please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery of prize. Any violation of the rules will deem your entry as disqualified.

If you’re like most parents with young children, sleep is an elusive dream. I’m somewhat of an insomniac anyway and it doesn’t help when the lack of sleep hits me during the day and I’m walking around like a zombie. But besides a good night’s rest, sometimes I need a little help waking up in the morning and going to bed at night. When I learned about Kiss My Face’s newest Early to Bed and Early to Rise Shower Gels I was intrigued. Could an actual body wash help me wake up refreshed in the mornings as well as one that can help me sleep peacefully?

When the good folks at Kiss My Face (http://www.kissmyface.com/) sent me their Early to Bed and Early to Rise shower gels to try, I was a bit skeptical. How could shower gels actually help with waking up refreshed in the morning and soothing enough to give me a peaceful night’s rest? Well, that’s when the powers of essential oils come in – their wondrous therapeutic properties have been known for many centuries and are still applied to modern day uses.

 

Both Early to Bed and Early to Rise shower gels contain specific fruit and herbal extracts that are meant to help and enhance one’s mood. With their Early to Bed shower gel the calming and soothing properties of Clove and Ylang Ylang are carefully blended with the stress-relieving quality of Lavender to put you in a relaxing and peaceful state of mind – something quite important to a good night’s sleep. When I opened the bottle cap the first scents that hit me were Clove and Ylang Ylang. Both have very powerful aromas that immediately brings tranquility to the mind. Some may not appreciate their pungent scents but I’ve been using natural essential oils and extracts for many years so I was accustomed to their fragrances. The lavender is very light but it’s in there and if you take a careful whiff, you’ll enjoy the melange of scents that is altogether soothing and intriguing. Although I can’t quite say whether it had helped me fall asleep faster than if I didn’t use it, the shower gel did create a natural sense of tranquility.

With the Early to Rise shower gel I was eager to try that right away. Using the essential extracts of Wild Mint and Citrus such as lemon and grapefruit, the fresh scents are both refreshing and invigorating. I definitely felt more awake the instant I stepped into the shower and poured some of the Early to Rise shower gel into my palms. I’m a major fan of citrus in my shower gels as they are delightful to the senses and reminds me of orchards and meadows.

Kiss My Face uses naturally derived ingredients and do not contain parabens, phthalates, or SLS and are generally gentle on the skin. They do not use any artificial fragrances only essential oils and extracts and come in a variety of delightful scents. We’ve been using Kiss My Face products for many years and I even use their kids formulas for my son. I really like the fact that they harness the powers of essential extracts to use for therapeutic purposes as well as enhances one’s mood. The properties for the two shower gels contain the following:

Early to Bed Shower Gel – 

Chamomile – calms and soothes the skin

Ylang Ylang – soothing for the body and mind

Olive Oil – superb moisturizer for all skin types

Early to Rise Shower Gel –

Basil – stimulates skin circulation

Lemon – uplifting and refreshing for the skin

Olive Oil – superb moisturizer for all skin types

Currently, Kiss My Face products can be found at most natural grocery stores, on their website, and online shopping sites including Amazon and Vine.com.
