When you are a parent you really notice the "milestones" in your child's life. From discovering finger foods, crawling, saying their first words, entering school and so much more. My son had a lot milestones in his first year as he was born with torticollis (tight muscle in his neck so he couldn't hold his head straight) he went to physio every week from 1 month until he was 8 months old. We were not sure what to expect but as he hit each "baby" milestone it helped improve the muscle along with the physio. Another great milestone, starting junior kindergarten! Such a big boy walking in line to enter the school, not even a tear in his eye! He also just got a great report from his teachers but in his french and english class.
Cheerios has always been a part of special moments like these. Commemorate your little one’s milestones with Cheerios! Mom Central is proud to announce the
Cheerios Milestones contest. You could see your little one featured on a special edition Cheerios Box and possibly even win $10,000 towards an RESP from TD Canada Trust!
I was given the opportunity from
Mom Central Canada to host an intimate Cheerios Milestones Sponsored Get-together in my home with my Mom friends. Mom Central Canada provided me with a Get-together kit that included everything I would need to host a fun and entertaining get-together.
The children were pumped for this get-together for weeks. On Friday they were counting the days to the party and telling everyone they are having a Cheerios Party! When Sunday rolled around that was the first thing out of my sons mouth, "Its our Cheerios party today! YAY!!"
I had my morning coffee while cleaning the kitchen and then preparing a yummy snack recipe I found on the Cheerios website called
Cinnamon-Popcorn Snack we made the Cinnamon Oat version. We also mixed another container with ABC pretzels, animal cookies (both Presidents Choice) and cheerios together for a nice little snack.
Shortly after 1pm our guests arrived ready to play! We had some free play time and then snack time. The kids sat down and looked at the snacks and jumped right in! They loved them both. Lots of talking about the ABC pretzels and the different popcorn and raisins.
After snack time it was time to get creative. We all moved into our craft room were the kids each got a Cheerio container filled with Cheerios to craft with.
My daughter (who is 3 years old) spent two hours crafting and using the Cheerios play book!
Thanks Mom Central Canada and Cheerios for the great afternoon! The kids had great things to say about the party, the best was "the party was awesome!"
