My kids think it’s fun to eat their breakfast as a “snack” when we walk to school. Truthfully, I’d prefer they sat and ate every morning, but some days it’s all we can do to grab a glass of milk, cheese stick, and a breakfast bar. They loved the Chocolate Crispy Rice Bars, and I felt more comfortable with the choice when I discovered the bars are made with wholegrain brown rice.

EnviroKidz is more than breakfast

My kids immediately fell in love with the EnviroKidz line, even before I opened the Cinnamon Jungle Munch Cereal, which ended up being their favorite of the products we tried. Their animal-loving hearts loved the various jungle animals on the boxes, and EnviroKidz does more than decorate with the sweet animals you see on their products. EnviroKidz provides organic, gluten-free, Non-GMO options for kids and teaches them about protecting the environment by donating one percent of sales towards endangered species, habitat conservation and environmental education for kids, including 1% For The Planet.

Nature’s Path and EnviroKidz wants to send you to Costa Rica

Who wouldn’t want their family breakfast to include a gorgeous view? EnviroKidz wants to share their conservation work with the families who love their products and care about how people can work to save endangered animals.

Nature's Path

EnviroKidz is sending three lucky families on an EnviroTrip to Costa Rica to help save the sea turtles at SEE Turtles, a non-profit wildlife conservation travel operator in the beautiful OSA peninsula.  Three lucky winners and their families (three groups of 4 people) will get an all-expense paid trip to Costa Rica in March 2015.  They will spend three days working with Costa Rican organization Latin American Sea Turtles to catch endangered green and hawksbill sea turtles in the Golfo Dulce, a beautiful gulf located alongside the Osa Peninsula. They will help researchers set out nets, measure the turtles, and collect important data before releasing them back to the water. In addition, the winners will participate in a mangrove restoration project, helping to plant two species of mangrove trees that are critical to turtles and other wildlife of the Gulf. Finally, the winners will visit a chocolate farm to see how the world’s favorite treat is made!

Ten runner-ups will receive EnviroKidz gift baskets.
