My kids’ favorite time of day is snack time. Colin asks for snack before James gets home and doesn’t like that I make him wait. The minute James walks in from school he asks where snack is and I (almost always) have it ready to devour.
About once a week we have a snack time play date with friends. That’s my favorite because they kids get time with friends and I have time for adult conversation – a win-win!
Juicy Juice and Crayola are products I have on-hand almost all the time because they are products that allow my kids to become more independent. Pulling both (or either) products out for a play date is easy!
Because I was running low on Nestle Juicy Juice, I headed up to my closest Walmart and picked some up. I had a $1 off 2 Juicy Juice coupon, so I grabbed both Apple and Fruit Punch Juicy Juice in the slim packs.
From April through September, there will be specially marked packages of Juicy Juice products offering up to $3 off coupon savings on toddler and kid appropriate Crayola products (such as Color Wonder and My First Crayola). There will be $1 off Juicy Juice coupons on specially marked packages of Crayola Color Wonder and My First Crayola products.
A play date at my house isn’t complete without snacks. And because I am always experimenting with new treats, I wanted to try to make a Fruit Punch cupcake. What better way do accomplish that than with Fruit Punch Juicy Juice?
The first batch was a flop. But the second batch turned out really well!
We didn’t have friends over for a play date last week, but the boys and I took our cupcakes outside to enjoy the weather. We had apple Juicy Juice, fruit punch cupcakes and colored with Crayola sidewalk chalk! It was so much fun!

Color Wonder & Juicy Juice makes for a relaxing afternoon. But playing outside with sidewalk chalk can be just as fun.
My boys are great artists – flowers, boats, birds, tic-tac-toe boards – but the only thing I can draw is an elephant’s rear. And that’s just what I did:
What is your favorite Juicy Juice flavor?

My boys favor the Apple Juicy Juice. I often have Juicy Juice boxes on hand for playdates, but never thought to use the juice in cupcakes as well! Thanks for sharing that idea! #client
