One big resolution at the first of this year was to remove HFCS products from our house. No products will come into our house now without a complete analysis of the ingredients and nutrition label. It is a personal preference but one that I am feeling so much better about. I want my girls to be healthy and have healthy teeth.
Juice can be a big problem. There are so many juices that claim to be all-natural but when you read the ingredients, HFCS is right at the top. Introducing the Nestle Juicy Juice Fruitifuls.
– 35% less sugar than regular fruit juices
– All-natural ingredients: No added sugar, sweeteners, preservatives or artificial flavors
– Hydrating: A naturally refreshing blend of fruit juice and fresh water to help hydrate active kids
This makes for a happy mommy. Juicy Juice has a fruit promise as well: Every box of Juicy Juice Fruitifuls provides one serving (1/2 cup) from the Fruit Group (source: USDA). The girls are loving the juice. It is a great taste and I have been putting one in their lunchbox daily. We even gave out the juice boxes at L’s recent birthday. Every child at the party asked for a second one. I think that speaks for itself.
There are four fun refreshing flavors: Apple Quench, Punch Splash, Berry Cherry Burst and Orange Strawbana Blast.
L prefers the apple quench and the punch splash. M prefers the Punch Spash and the Orange Strawbana Bast. Even though they have their preferences, they will drink any of the flavors. I have been keeping them stocked in the fridge and the girls will go straight to the fridge to grab a juice box as soon as we get home from school. I do not feel one ounce of guilt letting them drink the juice boxes.
Another positive since I am PTO President at my girls’ school is each package of Juicy Juice, comes with a box top. On each case so far, there has been a bonus box top. I love when companies want to give back to our schools and children’s future.

Usually one juice box or a small glass with breakfast.
The kids I watch are allowed to drink one juice box or glass of juice each day although if they aren’t looking I can dilute the juice a little bit 🙂
As much as they want, it is better than soda.
IT DEPENDS ON THE JUICE…IF IT HAS SUGAR NO…IF IT DOES NOT..A LITTLE CUP
A few glasses a day and that is alway’s enough for her.

2 small glasses a day
I don’t have kids, but I do understand limiting it because of the sugar. If you can find one with less/no sugar then I’d allow more per day.

As much as she wants, but she prefers water most of the time.

no children here but grandson probably doesn’t drink very much
I don’t have kids but I think a serving of good juice without sugar and other things added is okay and definitely better than soda.
Whenever he’s thirsty he can have juice.
Not much…we mostly do milk and water. If I get juice I look for lower sugar options
My kids get a juice box in there lunches every day.
They usually drink about two or three glassfuls a day.
