Back "Pack" To School with Green Supplies Giveaway

 

   

Welcome to the Back "Pack" To School With Green Supplies Giveaway Event hosted by Mama to 4 Blessings. Special thank you to Green Apple Supply for sponsoring this fantastic giveaway!

As parents: Stephanie and Robert Tobor, founders of Green Green Apple Supply want the best for our kids. And as global citizens, they were faced with the responsibility to care for our planet, and each other. They began as an endeavor to feed our family natural, organic foods has grown into a much larger enterprise. Learning about potential dangers to children, and the planet, in cleaning supplies, household goods, office supplies…everywhere. The worsening state of our environment, climate change, and increasing levels of toxins showing up in children’s blood work combined to create a great passion for exposing our family to only the cleanest, most wholesome products.  When they had inquired as to why individuals were choosing traditional products rather than opting for eco-friendly versions, typically given one of two answers:

1. Green products are too expensive.
2. There are too many choices, and some are not effective.

This was the beginning of Green Apple Supply! By utilizing economies of scale, wholesale purchasing power, and personal product experience, their endeavor to make it easier for anyone to purchase Earth-friendly products. Keeping overhead low and this is a non-profit effort. Products are sold as close to cost as we can, while still keeping the lights on. Why? Because we think it’s the right thing to do.

alternaVites Kids Vitamins Review and Giveaway

There seem to be a lot of different types of vitamins for children out there. Until I was introduced to alternaVites Kids, I had no idea they came in a powdered form!  alternaVites Kids is a new potent high-quality multivitamin containing a full spectrum of essential vitamins and minerals in a unique delicious crystal powder form that melts in your mouth. Created for kids ages 4 and up, alternaVites Kids is a perfect alternative to traditional chalky chewables or sugary gummies that are high in sugar, low in nutrients and can stick to a child’s teeth.  Using a proprietary blend of ingredients, it is free of sugar, aspartame or high fructose syrup, artificial flavors and preservatives.  alternaVites Kids has also been carefully formulated with ingredients that do not contain the major food allergens (egg, milk, peanut, tree nuts, wheat, soy, fish and shellfish) and is certified kosher pareve.

alternaVites Kids sprinkled on yogurt

 alternaVites Kids is easy to eat. You can sprinkle a little at a time on the tongue or you can sprinkle it in yogurt, smoothies, puddings, etc. Above, you can see that the entire package is sprinkled on my yogurt. I found it mixed it perfectly and added a touch of the flavor. It would be a great way to hide vitamins if your child is picky! It was also fun to sprinkle on my tongue and letting it dissolve.

alternaVites Kids is available at www.alternaVites.com for $15.95 (one month’s supply/30 daily dose packets). Use code moms20 to get 20% off of your order!
