Scrummies: The healthy snack for school lunch boxes and kids on the go

June 28, 2017

Sometimes it can be tricky getting the right balance in your child's packed lunch.

If like us, you have a little fuss pot that only seems to want the same lunch over and over again, then these new Scrummies from Clearly Scrumptious might help you out.

These little packs of healthy goodness can get one of your five a day into kids without them realising, thats always a win in my book!

Scrummies are a mix of juicy cranberries and succulent raisins with natural fruit flavours.

There's no artificial flavours, just lovely soft fruits with nothing added and nothing taken away.

With no added sugar, no sulphates, 100% vegan, wheat gluten and dairy free they are a welcome addition to any packed lunch. And you can buy 20 (20g packs) for £10. They are for little ones age 12 months and over.

These little packs are great for snacks on the go. If you have a long car journey or are going on a family day out, these are perfect.

They come in 5 flavours: Blackcurrant, Cherry, Strawberry, Blueberry and Raspberry.

Clearly Scrumptious was developed by founders Rick Wadsworth and James Feddo. While running in the Yorkshire Dales they realised a gap in the market as they were frustrated at the lack of high quality dried fruit snacks available in snack sized portions to carry in their rucksacks for a natural energy source.

The Blueberry, Raspberry and Strawberry fruit snacks, sold in a multipack (5x20g) are available in more than 200 Morrisons stores across the UK.

And if you parents keep pinching the kids packs, then fear not, they also sell them for adults.

You can order them online direct from Clearly Scrumptious and I have a discount code for my lovely readers which will save you 15% off all items in your cart. Just enter Ourfamily15 at the checkout.

We decided to do a taste test with our son Jacob. He always gives an honest opinion (like kids do), I think you will see they went down very well. See below for the video. 

Disclaimer: We were sent some of each flavour complimentary to try.

A Day in the Life video - Scootering, chocolate cake and Skype

April 24, 2017

I am kind of getting to grips with my new Canon G7X camera, I love recording footage of our family when we are out and about.

I have uploaded our second Day in the Life video on to Our Family Life YouTube channel.

In this video we go out for some lunch to a lovely place in Folkestone, Kent called Googies Art Cafe. If ever you are in Folkestone, I'd recommend a visit to Googies, it's a great place and the food is yummy!

The kids (and Mark) go scootering on Dover seafront. We enjoy some chocolate cake in the Waterfront cafe where Jacob ends up eating most of the cake!

Then it's back home. While Jacob is tired from all that scootering and decides to have a nap, I get chance to chill out for a bit with a cup of tea and have a read of The Sunday People and Sunday Mirror newspapers.

In the evening on a Sunday we always like to Skype my mum and dad because they live in Yorkshire. It's a great way to keep in touch with them.

Then it's story time for Jacob and time for bed. When the kids are in bed, me and Mark enjoyed a Chinese takeaway and watched a film.

It's great to keep memories of those little days out, when in years to come we will have probably forgotten about it!

I don't think I am quite ready to take the daily vlogging challenge. I'm really impressed by people who vlog everyday. 

I don't think anyone who watch videos on YouTube realise just how long they take to edit. It usually takes me around 5-6 hours to edit one video! But I really enjoy the process.

I'd love you to have a watch and let me know what you think of it.
