Got Milk? Why yes, yes we got.

In this house, we drink lots of milk. My kids are like super duper milk-drinking machines; and you know what milk they really like? MARIGOLD UHT Chocolate Milk.

These guys can power through a litre a day, which is pretty impressive, if you ask me. They start off their mornings with a glass of… that’s right, MARIGOLD UHT Chocolate Milk

We all know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day so I make it a point to prepare a healthy, nutritious breakfast for the kids every morning. Only thing is that my kids aren’t very adventurous when it comes to food. I tried experimenting with fun recipes like breakfast pizzas, omelettes, rolled oats, blueberry pancakes and granola parfaits but all my attempts were met with diplomatic comments like “uhh, it’s quite special but I think I don’t like that…just give me a sandwich.”

These days, we’ve settled on a breakfast routine of cheese toast, tuna sandwiches, ham sandwiches, or butter and jam sandwiches (on wholemeal bread YAY!) and always with a glass of chocolate milk.

So even if they make vomit faces at organic rolled oats with flax seeds and agave, I feel better that they’re drinking lots of milk. Milk provides them with calcium, vitamin D and energy to help them remain focused, alert, energetic and healthy throughout the day. It’s brain food for their growing little brains. Plus, MARIGOLD UHT Milk is enriched with a unique BonePlusTM formulation that helps to increase calcium absorption and build strong teeth and bones.

In the evenings, they wrap up the day with another glass of MARIGOLD UHT Chocolate Milk. Ever since they’ve been weaned off formula milk, they’ve been drinking a glass of milk before bed at night. It’s part of our bedtime routine to help them to wind down and prepare for a good night’s rest.

Since we’re such big fans of MARIGOLD UHT Milk around here, we were really thrilled to learn that MARIGOLD would be celebrating World School Milk Day with a fun and creative contest in the preschools, closing with a finale at eXplorerkid last Friday. A special day to celebrate drinking delicious milk with super fun activities? COUNT US IN!

World School Milk Day falls on the last Wednesday in September to celebrate the health benefits of school milk programmes. It’s a wonderful initiative that engages schools to promote the importance of drinking milk in a fun, memorable and educational way.

About 200 students from 4 preschools were invited for a morning of fun together with the enthusiastically cute mascot – Happy Cow from MARIGOLD. The schools were selected based on the amazing art pieces they created with MARIGOLD UHT Milk packs.

There were also MARIGOLD UHT Milk goodie bags for the kids. Kirsten was obviously thrilled with her chocolate milk. She was all “WHATTT?? I get to drink extra chocolate milk?? Today is the best day ever!”
