Yoplait Kids: Delicious & Fun Yogurt You Can Eat or Drink

When I was a young kid I hated yogurt. I refused to eat it. Probably because my mother tried to convince me it was just ice cream. When I realized it was "melty" and not frozen, I gagged. Thankfully, when I was older I fell in love with this dairy goodness. For a daily dose of calcium, yogurt is usually my first choice.

Dawson, however, has loved yogurt from the get-go. In fact, we've had a few Strawberry Banana Yogurt Phases 'round these parts, in which my son will only eat yogurt for each of his three meals and loves the yogurt drinks instead of milk. He's even gone so far as to beg for those yogurt pops in the grocery store.

When the Parent Bloggers Network asked us to try Yoplait Kids yogurt, I jumped at the chance, even though we're seasoned veterans.

Yoplait Kids yogurt offers a delicious and nutritious, creamy texture and taste, made with Omega-3 DHA, which is an important nutrient that supports brain growth during childhood development stages (which totally explains why Dawson is so smart -- or maybe he's just a smarty pants?).

We love the Yoplait Kids yogurt drink in Strawberry Banana as well as the yogurt cups in Banana/Vanilla. Dawson loves the packages, too. What child can resist Dora, Diego & The Backyardigans? Dawson stares at the package while spooning delicious yogurt in his mouth.

In each serving of Yoplait Kids yogurt is an excellent source of calcium, 16 mg of Omega-3 DHA, no artificial sweeteners or flavors, Vitamins A& D, protein, and 25% less sugar than the leading kid's yogurt on the shelves of the dairy aisle.

My favorite thing about Yoplait Kids yogurt, other than the nutrional value, is the price. At $2.79 a package (either six 3.1-oz bottles of drinkable yogurt, or a six-pack of 4-oz. cups) I'm able to afford to keep it stocked in our refridgerator for the Doodlebug. Some of the other brans are in the $4-5 dollar range and definitely not as nutrious as Yoplait Kids brand.

Thanks, Parent Bloggers Network and Yoplait for giving us a sweet and healthy treat!
