Make Winter More Fun With TruMoo Chocolate Marshmallow Milk

Did you know that watching movies tops the list of Americans’ favorite indoor winter activities, followed by reading books and playing games?

Did you know that the top outdoor wintertime activity for Americans is building a snowman, followed by starting a snowball fight and sledding?

Another fun fact is that nearly 70 percent of Americans agree that hot chocolate is the drink that reminds them most of their childhood. I am fairly confident that this will be the exact same for my children. We have hot chocolate several times a week and although my youngest just likes to eat the whipped cream from the top, my other two kids really enjoy drinking the entire cup and them sometimes ask for seconds.

My family seriously loves winter. My kids skied for the first time last year and after that, all they ever want to do is ski when we go on vacation. They also love sledding and building a snowman so we are definitely part of those statistics above.

Something else that my family seriously loves is TruMoo Chocolate Milk. We are working with them again and this time we tried the fabulous TruMoo Chocolate Marshmallow Milk. I have to say that we cannot keep this in the house. My kids absolutely LOVE it.
