Snack Time at the Bowers

Uncategorized

Congrats to April! The winner of the Naturebox Giveaway!  You should have an email in your inbox right now girl!

Disclaimer – This post and giveaway is sponsored by NatureBox.  All opinions are 100% my own.

Who out there is a fan of snacking?

Yeah…everyone.  I thought so.

So when NatureBox asked us to give away some of their snacks, I knew this would be a winner.  But they also asked how we and our kiddos interacted with the snacks we get.  I was like….ummm….we eat them.  (?)  I mean…we don’t mess around.  The box arrives right at our door and the kiddos are usually dying to dive into the packages.  Like they try tearing things open with their teeth.  No joke.

And I always order something just for me….because moms need snacks too, right?!

And then it clicked….I could try to describe our snack time….but why don’t I just show you and NatureBox our snack time?!  So I made a video.  Max was down for his nap and LJ had to go down for his nap half way through…but this is a real life version of what we do on any given day.  There is fort building, wrestling, the couch is completely torn apart and the boys are picking their favorite snack for the afternoon.  We laugh a lot.  Pillows are always everywhere.  Someone usually is telling tooting jokes.  And I always have to steal kisses.  But it’s our version of everything.  And we love it.

So now that you know what we do, I want to get right to it.

  1. Aged cheddar lentil loops look so good, but so does honey macadamia pretzel pops. So many delicious snacks to choose from!!!

  7. My kids are popcorn addicts! I would love to try the Parmesan Garlic Pop Pops or the White Cheddar Caramel Popcorn. I think both of my kids would love both of them! 🙂

    Thanks for the opportunity, Katie!

    Also, totally random, but I loved Weston laughing towards the end of the video. You could see the pure happiness in his face! <3

  11. I must say this is the cutest sponsored post I’ve ever seen! LOVE LOVE LOVE the video. 🙂 I have three littles and nature box is a big hit at our house too! They know the difference between an amazon prime box and the nature box delivery. 🙂

  13. I think the Roasted Red Pepper & Artichoke Bruschetta Dip-It., the Blueberry almond Quinoa, and the Salt and Pepper Pistachios sound wonderful.

  14. Well, I want to try them all… but if I have to pick, it’s the Classic Hummus Dip-it. Thanks for a fun giveaway!

  15. I would try the Spicy Sriracha Popcorn since you cant find that in stores. Some of the other treats, like dried pears or apples, can be found at the normal grocery store (or at Trader Joe’s).

  20. Your boys are just darling! The Blueberry Almond Quinoa Bites and the Dark Chocolate Berry Trail mix look so tasty!

  21. I have always wanted to try the mini cocoa Belgian waffles! And the dark cocoa nom noms look pretty tasty also!!

  25. Ha! I am snacking on the mini Belgium waffles as I read this post! I am obsessed with the nom noms. I need to learn to make them…. Or just order a whole ton of them.

  35. Gosh, they do have a large assortment and that makes it hard but I would probably go with some of the dried fruit options first.

  38. I can’t decide between the Dark Cocoa Nom Noms and the Crispy Coconut Squares! Oh, man, so many awesome things to choose from! Thanks for the chance to win!!

  39. Um, hello! I want to try them ALL! But if I had to choose one to start with it’d be the peanut butter nom noms!

  45. Those coconut squares and lentil loops have me intrigued, but I know my husband would love the sriracha popcorn! Such a cute video too!

  54. umm everything looks so good! parmesan garlic pop pops, the lemon figgy bars, mini belgium waffles. I think i’m going to try it out..my son needs to mix up his snacks and so doesn’t momma!

  56. Garlic Bread Cheese Crisps for me. Figgy Bars for the boys. And Lemon Tea Biscuits for me – again………..

  57. Your video is adorable! Trader joes has these amazing dried white peaches so I’d def give these a try. For the little, she’s a fan of fig bars. The lemon figgy ones sound so good right now.

  58. The cocoa cashew crisps sound delish! I would love those with a cup of afternoon tea to get me through the work day!

  62. I’m a chocolate everything kinda gal so when I saw the Cocoa Cashew Crisp, I was all in! I love that it has that chocolate hint that I need, while still being rather guilt free with the cashews and oat clusters. Yummy!

  75. Popcorn is a stable in our house for snack time, the coffee kettle popcorn looks great for the adults, cheddar caramel for the kids!

  78. the whole wheat chocolate chip cookie bites. Because the two babies in my belly that will bring my family to the big No. 6 DEMAND chocolate. I mean, as do I 🙂

  82. I can hardly make a decision, it all looks soooo good! Parmesan garlic pop pops, Lemon Tea Biscuits, Aged Cheddar Lentil Loopss, etc….

  84. The Cocoa Cashew Crisps please! I’d like to say it would be for me, but let’s be realistic – my girls will definitely want to “share” it with me.

  90. Asiago and Cheddar Cheese Crisps look amazing! I think I’d also want to try the Big Island Pineapple.

  92. If I was choosing for myself I’d go straight for the Almond Mocha bars. . . for the kiddos, the strawberry figgy bars would probably be a big hit.

  93. Your boys are too cute! I think mine would love the peanut butter graham jam, but I want the dark cocoa almonds!

  99. Ugh. All of them? Probably one of the granola bars, because that’s my daughters current favorite thing for breakfast. It’d be nice to get a healthier version for her.

  100. I don’t think I can possibly choose…the quinoa bites, figgy bars, and yogurt pretzels would be big hits in my house!

  107. There are lots of other exciting options but for health sake I’d probably pick the dried mangos. It’s impossible to find dried fruit with no added sugar at my local grocery stores so they would be great!

  110. I’d have to go with the animal cookies – chocolate or vanilla – and I would eat the heads off of them and then feed the bodies to my kids because that’s how I roll.

  112. The dark chocolate nom noms sound good. Thanks for a chance to win. Your kids are adorable in action!

  122. I want to try the crispy coconut squares! Also, I just have to tell you every day I get so excited when I see a new post from you! Hashtag favorite blog!!! ❤️❤️

  135. 100% expected them to just have “kid” snacks, but then I clicked and saw mini Belgian waffles…salted caramel pretzel pops… and quinoa bites. Count me in! I’m dying to try the Sriracha popcorn.

  139. Whole wheat blueberry figgy bars. They sound like a healthy snack my kids might actually try!

  141. Is like to enter! If I won, I’m most excited to try the Bug Island Pineapple! I’ve heard such good things about it!

    Love your blog!

  144. Love the video! I have 3 boys 5, 3, and 20 months and our snack time is ALL DAY LONG. My kiddos would live the dried white peaches and dried mango!

  152. So much to drool over! I’d love to try the blueberry, apple & sunflower seed oatmeal and my little one has been eying the sour cream and onion almonds. nom nom! : )

  154. I would like to try the lemon tea biscuits but I am sure my kids would like the mini waffles 🙂

  155. Hard to choose…we love popcorn, yogurt pretzels, fruit bars and animal crackers. I think the cinnamon yogurt grahams look yummy for me!

  166. There’s a lot that looks delicious–Cococnut squares? Parmesan Garlic Pop Pops? All the Nom Noms? If I had to choose one it would have to be the Cocoa Cashew Crisp though. I’ve been on the fence about trying Nature Box for a while now. It’s just me and the husband so we try no to have too many snackie things around, but I always need to have something stashed in my desk at work since I work long hours (and have a tendency to get hangry).

  174. I would pick the Sourdough cheddar pretzels or the watermelon mini stars. Too hard to narrow it down!

  183. So, I totally didn’t expect that many choices! The dark chocolate no noms, but the dried white peaches look awesome too. Need something nice and non horrible for my one year old.

  190. So many good choices…I’d try the Cocoa Cashew Crisp and the Strawberry Greek Yogurt Pretzels.

  195. Aged cheddar lentil loops. That’s four words I never imagined putting together, but it sounds yummy.

  196. Oh my! Looks like they have several new products. The crispy coconut squares look yummy, and anything mocha is up my alley!

  198. Long time reader, infrequent commenter…. The pictures in your past three posts have come across my iPad super pixelated…not sure whether it is just me so thought I’d let you know in case you may have changed something and it isn’t just me.

    Thanks for all the great content ! 🙂

  205. Mmm, the blueberry almond quinoa bites look luscious plus good for you. They will help me reach my goal of getting healthy in 2016. Thanks for the great post and letting us know about this company.

  209. Any of the cheesy items would be a hit at our house, but the aged cheddar lentil loops looks fabulous!

  212. Gosh! Dis not realize that there were SO much options! love how user friendly the website is as well…ahmmm this was a toughie…all looks interesting and yummy……but i would try first…the aged cheddar lentil loops..(sounds fun )!

  219. The pear praline crunch looks so good! I would also try any of the fruit chews and dried fruit.

  220. The pineapple coconut bars sound wonderful. Also the cashew crumble. Thanks for the chance to try!

  223. I can’t decide between the maple chipotle almonds or the sourdough cheddar pretzels. So both?

  227. I would definitely get the white cheddar caramel popcorn, but should probably order the whole wheat vanilla animal cookies for my little guy!!!

  228. I would love the crispy coconut squares and my kids would love any yogurt pretzels and maybe the nom noms. Everything looks yummy!

  230. Love your video! Love all the nut options. The sriracha roasted cashews sounds awesome. My son would love the animal crackers. They looks cute and delicious.

  238. everything looks great! I miss peaches though and would dive right into a bag of dried white peaches. yum!

  252. The Salted Caramel Pretzel Pops look yum! If I had some of those I just might lay off the birthday cake that is screaming my name!

  254. Those mini Belgian waffles would be amazing in ice cream. (Does that defeat the purpose of having healthy snacks delivered to your doorstep?)

  259. They all looked so good – especially the Probiotic Power Mix and Blueberry Almond Quinoa Bites! Thanks for the opportunity!

  273. Peanut Butter Graham Jam sounds delish!
    You’ve inspired me to build a fort today- my kids thank you.

  280. I would love to try the Dark Chocolate Nom Noms. Or Chocolate Banana Chips.

    To be honest, I had a hard time choosing because everything sounds great!

  285. I want to try the dark cocoa nom noms! Or the mini cocoa Belgian waffles! Really, anything with chocolate. 😀

  287. The dried peaches sound so good right now! With a newborn and an almost two year old who is almost always hungry, I could use some snack help!

  290. Everything looks good! I’d especially love to try the Cheddar Sour Dough Pretzels, Mini Belgian Waffles and all of the dried fruit! 🙂

  295. I’d love to try the salted caramel pretzel pops. They’d be great for when I have to lock myself in my closet to hide from my kiddos…;-).

  300. Ohh, this post was for me. I’m queen of snacking. I literally just finished dinner and am currently wanting a snack because…snacking! ha! The impossible part of this contest is picking ONE snack that we would like to try. So I’ll just throw a few out there. The dried fruits, the small cookies/biscuits, the oatmeal…I want ’em all. Yum!

    Now off to go fix a snack. 😛

  331. Thank you for this giveaway! I was salivating looking at all of the options. I love that there’s such a variety in the nuts section! I’d definitely like to try one of those. The dark chocolate berry nut mix looked especially tempting.

  345. Oh my goodness I would definitely try the dried white peaches! I ate a whole costco carton of Peaches when I was pregnant with my daughter!!
