After
writing about Asda’s Baby and Toddler Event, Asda offered to send me a few
samples of products they have on offer during the event.
We were
sent a Munchkin Baby Shape Sorter bath toy, a Munchkin Mighty Grip cup, Heinz
Mum’s Own Meals Juicy Apricot Chicken and Rice meal, Heinz fruit smoothies and
Organix Goodies Organic Raisins and Chopped Apricots toddler snack.
Little
man has already had lots of fun in the bath with the Munchkin Baby Shape Sorter bath toy. It is a lovely bright green
turtle with colourful shapes that fit through different holes on the
turtle. I think this toy is great as it
will not only entertain little man when he is having splishy splashy fun in the
bath but it will also help his hand eye co-ordination and encourage learning
shapes and colours. This Munchkin Baby Shape
Sorter bath toy can be purchased during the Asda Baby and Toddler Event for
£5.00.
The
Munchkin Mighty Grip 10oz straw cup is very colourful and I like how it is
specially contoured for easy grip and perfectly designed for little toddler
hands. Little man has not used a straw
cup before and has only used Tommee Tippee cups up until now so I am keen to
see how he gets on with his new cup.
This cup can be purchased during the event for £2.00 and is available in
two different colours; blue and red or pink and yellow.
Even
though little man was already eating before 6 months of age following our
Health Visitor’s advice as soon as we reached 6 months we ditched the baby food
and veered more towards Baby Led Weaning. As we decided to go down that route
in little man’s journey with food he quickly progressed to feeding himself and
eating a variety of different foods. He
now eats the same food we have and has no problems eating lumps and chunks of
food, no pureed or lumpy baby food needed as he easily devours everything from
meat to fish to vegetables to fruit…the list goes on and on. He has never chocked and never had a problem
chewing food. As he eats this way I
don’t buy ‘baby/toddler’ food apart from snacks. Little man hasn’t tried the
Heinz Mum's Own Meals Juicy Apricot Chicken and Rice meal yet but at first glance it does look a lot more pureed than he is
used to and I will most probably mix it with some more rice when he has it. I do like the fact though that it contains no
added preservatives, artificial colours, flavours, added salt or GM
ingredients. The Heinz Mums Own Tray Meals’
can be purchased during the Asda baby and toddler event for the discounted
price of £1.00.
We were
also sent 2 Heinz fruit smoothies. As
little man loves his fruit and does enjoy homemade smoothies I am sure these
will go down a treat. I like the fact
that they are filled with fruity goodness with no added sugar and that they are
a great way for little ones to get 2 of their 5 a day. These smoothies are currently available from
Asda on a 2 for £1.00 offer with two varieties available; a Pear and Apple smoothie and an Apricot and Pear smoothie.
Little
man is on the go all the time as such he eats a lot and enjoys snacks to keep
his energy topped up for all the mischievous adventurous he has so the Organix Goodies Organic Raisins and Chopped Apricots for toddlers was perfect for
little man. They come in individual 18g bags
that contain 1 portion of a child’s 5 a day, making for a quick and healthy
snack for toddlers. I like the fact that
they have no artificial additives or added sugar. These Organix Goodies can be purchased from
Asda for £1.00.
There
are lots of offer products and offers available at Asda during their Baby and
Toddler Event which runs until the14th of May.
