We are currently traveling in Europe right now, but most of you ( I should hope all of you!) know that we are usually traveling somewhere. Even when we are home, we are very active, whether it’s heading into the city for the day, heading out to the park, or to hit the beach this summer, we are usually on the go. Days spent just running daily chores and activities can sometimes seem the busiest of all. One of our favorite things to keep with us while we travel are Balance Bars.
My son, age 5, especially loves the mini-bars, which are just the right size for him and are much better then handing him something out of a vending machine or a bag of chips or something along those lines. Balance Bars make this easy because not only are the healthy, but also are the perfect size to bring along with you wherever you may go.They are also are full of protein and 23 vitamins and minerals, while still having a variety of flavors, sizes, and types. They have enough substance to help keep cravings at bay and keep you going until your next meal.
Everyone knows that a cranky kid (or a cranky mom, just ask my husband) will wreak a day pretty fast. If you are hungry, you are most likely not in the best of moods. Snacks. Kids appreciate stability and scheduling. While you’re certain to upset their normal routine when you travel, it doesn’t mean that you can’t offer them some comfort by ensuring that they stick to their eating schedule as closely as possible. Although you can certainly eat at the airport or on the plane, it couldn’t hurt to have plenty of snacks on hand to tide kids over in case of scheduling conflicts. The best snacks include foods and beverages that are low in sugar and preservatives that can make your kids hyper or mess with their motility. Also- choose water over sugary sodas or juices to keep them hydrated without encouraging hyperactivity in a confined space, and they will need to be hydrated while they fly or travel about (especially in the summer) and we all know water is best for that.

I will give these to friends with kids. Eating well while traveling is key, especially if you want to maintain balance with your diet. Thanks!
This will go great when I am hungry.
My favorite Balance Bar is the Chocolate Craze. I eat half of one before I Spin, and half afterward. Sometimes they’re breakfast in the car if I’m in a hurry. And I keep a couple in my bag, just in case. So, to answer the question, I’d probably keep them for myself and whatever hungry nephews I’m carting around. Thanks for the giveaway.
I will give these to the grandchildren.
