If you are one of the first 100 moms to enter the contest you will automatically get prizes for yourself and your readers!

Feel free to upload photos, videos, etc. The only requirements we ask are that your post includes at least one link back to this page so your readers can enter the contest too, a link to www.LittleBlends.com and that you tweet about the contest using the hashtag #LittleBlends. Then return to this discussion page, post a comment below summarizing your blog post, and include an active link to your qualifying blog entry. That’s it! Contest officially ends October 3.

Prizes:
• The first 100 bloggers to enter the contest will win a Thermos snack jar to keep their cool snacks fresh for on-the-go, plus a coupon off Horizon’s new Little Blends yogurt. Participants will also receive a second prize pack to give away to one of their own readers.

Requirements:

Here are a few tips from my post:

Tip: Make it fun for them, get them involved in cooking meals at home-I always mix veggies in with something they are more likely to eat. Also add “dip dip” for the veggies.

Thanks Megan!!; ▶ Reply to This

Food can be changed and added to get it into a child. Puree it and add it to something they like or change it from fresh to frozen or grilled.; ▶ Reply to This
