I am forever trying to find healthier, more affordable snacks for myself and my children. Konnor has always been huge on fruits and veggies (I know I’m one lucky mama), but it isn’t always convenient when you are going to the park to slice up an apple or peel an orange, and then find a plastic container (don’t throw it away on accident – those are spendy) to store it in until the kids are ready to eat. Or you could put it into a sandwich baggie and hope it doesn’t get squished and spill all over everything else in your bag.
With Dole, these problems are a thing of the past! Each individual serving of their fruit bowls
come in a little plastic containers with a peel off lid, which is not only disposable, but easy to open. Konnor has no problems opening their fruit cups and digging right in, with or without utensils! Seriously. The fruit inside are bite size, and great finger foods too!
Ariana can pick up the mandarin oranges bites (which are her favorite) and put them into her mouth with little effort. Teaching her independence and helping to develop her hand/eye coordination, these are a great snack for her age.
What I love about Dole’s Fruit Bowls is that they come in 7 different flavors: diced apples, diced pears, mixed fruit, tropical fruit, diced peaches, mandarin oranges, and pineapple tidbits. My children are not at all picky, but if you have a picky child, they are sure to enjoy at least one of these delicious fruit bowls.
Dole was also sweet enough to send both Ariana and Konnor a Marty (from Madagascar) Snack Pack (shown on the right), which is an insulated pouch that easily fits one of the fruit bowls in. There is a key chain clip, so you can clip it onto the diaper bag, purse, or, like Konnor does, right onto a belt loop.
Three(3) lucky winners will receive a Marty Snack Pack along with a coupon for a pack of Dole Fruit Bowls.
