Ok, I have a confession to make … I think I may be addicted to Clif Bars. Seriously, they are so ooey gooey, tasty good and the perfect solution when we’re out and about and don’t get home in time for lunch. That’s why i jumped for joy when I was asked to try Clif Kid ZBars … and guess what … I think I like them EVEN MORE! 
Cliff Kid ZBars are more like cookies than their gooey aunts and uncles but still pack a healthy punch and tide my kids over when we’re outdoors walking, hiking, or playing at the park. Their flavors are so delicious, I just had to insist my kids “share” these special treats with me (hey, don’t judge – at least I’m teaching them to share, right?)
Happy thoroughly enjoying his 1st Zbar
Since the kids versions only have 130 calories versus the grownup 260 version. I may even replace a few of my go-to snacks with these yummy treat bars. I feel like I’m eating something I shouldn’t be (indulging, dare I say) , but instead I’m getting 12 vitamins and minerals and 7-11 grams of whole grains not to mention 3 grams of protein. Um, I mean that’s what I’m serving my kids … I also rest easy knowing the bar is certified organic and that I recognize every ingredient that went into making it.
Try all 6 amazing flavors (I promise you wont be disappointed)
Blueberry (120 cals)
Chocolate Brownie (130 cals) Tastiest Bar EVER!! Doubles as a special treat/dessert even
Chocolate Chip (130 cals)
Honey Graham (130 cals)
Peanut Butter (140 cals)
S’mores (130 cals)
I found a variety pack of 24 Clif Kid Zbars for just $14 + Free Prime Shipping
($11.90 if you use Subscribe & Save)
* I was not paid to write this product review, however I did receive a free sample of each flavor Zbar in order to form my own opinion on this great product. Clif Zbars will be added to the KSW pantry list (coming soon) as a go-to product for children’s and healthy Mom snacks. If you aren’t familiar with Clif Bar & Company take a moment to read their incredible story here.

It’s Amazing all the things I say,
When Mommy takes me out to play …
Will this stick float? Or this rock hop?
Oh Mom, Did you see those orange fish flop?
I love You Mom. This sure is fun,
Look at those silly water bugs run
away from me as I laugh and play.
I really wish we could stay all day …
There’s nothing more fun than this,
A day outdoors is just pure bliss.

I thought I’d share a fun tradition for New Year’s Day that I like to do with my kids, it can be as simple or as extravagant as you make it and it gives you a reason to think outside the box and indulge in a few sweet treats before you crack down with your New Year’s resolutions.
There are lot of food traditions on New Years – black eyed peas and collard greens in the South, noodles and citrus in China, cakes and pastries in Sweden and Germany but as nice as all those sound, they just weren’t silly enough for our family.
Instead we created a fun play on words in regards to food, for this one particular day we regard everything we eat with its literal meaning. Hershey kisses ensure a year’s worth of kisses, Laffy Taffy means the house will be filled with laughter, Mr. Goodbar means we’ll do lots of good for the year … you get the point.
Anyway, this is a fun tradition I’ve been doing on my own for years and I’m so excited to start sharing it with my children. I see this tradition getting more and more fun as years go by.
Our Menu this year includes:
Breakfast: Smart Start Strawberry Oat Bites Cereal
Snack 1: Honest Kids Berry, Berry Good Lemonade Drink Pouches & Laffy Taffy
Lunch: Happy Meals & Friendship Tea
Snack 2: Hershey Hugs & Kisses & Quaker True Delight Granola Bars
Dinner: A Pasta Bar Buffet w/ Good Luck (Broccoli Spinach Alfredo) & Lots of Love Sauce (Marinara)
Dessert: A Dream cake
You can read more about how I started this tradition on my page at MySanAntonio.com

I’m thankful this time of year to have three Merry elves running around my home offering to help me in any way ~ whether it’s Decking My Halls or Ringing My Bells these guys have it covered.
That’s why this homemade wrapping paper activity was just the thing we needed to occupy busy hands on a blustery day. Armed with newspaper, brown paper sacks and some drawing paper we stuck dozens of stickers, stamped many stamps and then wrapped everything with loads of glittering ribbon.
Picture perfect, if I must say so myself, and since we had all the adornments in our craft supply we also did this for, well… FREE! What could be Merrier than that?
