I<\/span> remember getting Kinder eggs from my grandparents when I was a kid, just about the same time they first became available in Canada in the early 1980s. (Did you know the brand is 40 years old?) I was fascinated by the exotic milky white insides of the chocolate eggs, aside from loving the wee surprise inside. Though I’m not a huge fan of chocolate, the kids know when they have a Kinder egg they always have to save a bite of that light\/milk chocolate combo for me. They’ve always been one of my favourite treats to give and to get.<\/p>\n

That\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s why I am happy to tell you that for the next year I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be working with Kinder Canada \u00e2\u20ac\u201c I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m a Kinder Mom! The boys are, of course, absolutely delighted with the news.<\/p>\n

I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m pretty happy about it too. Although I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve bought a lot (seriously, a LOT!) of Kinder Surprise treats through the years, I had no idea about some of the fun things they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been up to. For instance, just last month they set an official Guiness World Record in Toronto for the most people unwrapping chocolate at the same time. And starting this month, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll find a whole new set of Kinder Surprise toys: there are eight different Transformers toys and ten Disney Fairies toys available in specially marked Kinder Surprise eggs, for a limited time only. Let me know if you see them in Ottawa – we’ve been hunting high and low for them!<\/p>\n

The folks at Kinder Canada are all about the family fun, which seemed like another wonderful reason to partner with them on this year\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s campaign. Feeling like a little online fun? Try the Kinder Smile booth<\/a> app on the Kinder Canada Facebook page. You can take photos using your smartphone or webcam, or upload existing photos, and turn them into a #kindersmiles photobooth strip, like the one above! (I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m pretty sure some cities have actual Kinder Photo Booth locations where you can do this in real life, but I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think there is one here in Ottawa.)<\/p>\n

For a little more tactile fun, Kinder has partnered with Curiosity Box and they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re offering a limited edition Kinder SmileBox<\/a> including crafts, activity ideas and more. I got a sample pack to play with and we are having a LOT of fun with the photo booth props. Just ask Kerry’s family<\/a>! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

So, TL;DR: smiles, chocolate, family activities, chocolate, silly photo fun, chocolate, happy boys (and Beloved!) and chocolate. You can see why I didn’t hesitate to join the Kinder Canada family, right? \ud83d\ude42 More Kinder fun, and maybe even some treats to share, coming up soon – stay tuned!<\/p>\n
