I scheduled a playdate for Meagan with her best friend – Maddie. I planned a little picnic at Happy Valley Park and the girls played and ate as they wished.
I brought fruit, veggies, crackers - but what the did the girls want? Anything with a Disney character on the package or whatever included enough sugar to rot their remaining baby teeth.
As a Mom, I initially thought it was over the top that Disney had branded yogurt, cereal and other foods. Then, of course, I ended up with one of the pickiest kids in the country. One of the only ways I can get her to ingest yogurt is if the package has Kim Possible or Hannah Montana on it. The Jonas Brothers are becoming equally effective . Yes, I still think it's ridiculous that there isn't a product category Disney isn't competing in, but it hasn't stopped me from buying into it.
Will I be Mother of the Year? No. That's OK. Meagan had a great day with her best friend and I brushed her teeth.
So Disney - keep on branding food. In fact, could you start branding spinach and carrots? Even better - could you rename my favorite sushi restaurant and post a life sized cut out of Hannah and Joe Jonas eating a tuna sushi roll together?
