Outdoor Fun and Healthy Refreshments For Kids

The weather in Colorado lately has been full of sun and heat! For the most part, those hot summer afternoons do not bother the kids which means they want to be outside playing soccer, riding bikes, running around yard and creating beautiful sidewalk chalk art. I love that they want to be outside and enjoy their summer vacation being active and having fun. Active play requires great nutrition so I’m always on a mission to find easy kids snack and refreshment ideas for summer.

I don’t know about your kids but mine have always loved chocolate milk. Now, that love of chocolate milk could be because that when I was pregnant with both of them I had to have about 2 gallons of TruMoo Chocolate Milk on hand every week. It was my pregnancy craving and that craving has continued with me and my children. YUM!

I have always believed that after an afternoon of running around in the summer sun a great healthy snack and refreshment is very important. TruMoo Chocolate Milk is the perfect snack that is also a great chilled refreshment for the whole family. TruMoo Chocolate Milk is the perfect drink to help active kids continue to have fun, all day long. Plus, when I am out working in the yard or playing with the kids, I do not want to have to worry about preparing a snack so having our favorite TruMoo milk in the refrigerator waiting for our afternoon break is perfect, delicious and easy!

Why TruMoo Chocolate Milk?

When I was pregnant and drinking ALL OF THE CHOCOLATE MILK, my coworker told me that a lot of runners drink chocolate milk after a long run because of how much nutrition is packed into a glass of chocolate milk. I honestly had no idea about all of the great facts about chocolate milk so instead of feeling guilty about my chocolate milk cravings I dove right in and since then, I have continued to enjoy my daily glass of chocolate milk.

TruMoo provides 8 essential nutrients that kids need for critical development stages—making it a nutritiously delicious win-win for moms and kids. TruMoo Chocolate Milk is made with no high fructose corn syrup, and no GMO ingredients, so us moms can feel great about giving it to our kids as they enjoy their summertime adventures. Plus TruMoo chocolate milk is made with REAL cocoa and contains the right combination of protein, calcium, and vitamins of chocolate milk.

This summer has been filled with so many great accomplishments already for the kids, including Jude finally learning how to ride his bike without training wheels. And with every fun day outside, we find time to sit down for a break in the shade with some of our favorite TruMoo chocolate milk. My kids LOVE when I pick up the individually sized bottles…makes it so much more of treat in their minds.

Finding easy and kid approved snacks and refreshments that are also healthy can be difficult but with TruMoo chocolate milk I am always ready for when the kids come running inside from their fun activities outdoors. After a long day of active play in the sun, kids need the valuable nutrition and the great taste of TruMoo Chocolate Milk to help them get back out there and enjoy their summer break.
