The Joy of Childhood

This post was sponsored by Kinder Joy™ but the content and opinions expressed here are all myown.The Joy of Childhood | Live ColorfulI often think about my childhood and the things that made me feel joy and excitement, such asknocking on my friend’s door on Sunday afternoons and asking them to go with me to the store tobuy yummy treats with the money from our mesadas. Most of those afternoons ended with usplaying avioncito, jumping between numbers and enjoying our yummy treats!From those memories, I remember how a few times I felt disappointed about having tochoose between getting a yummy treat or a toy at the store! If we could have had Kinder Joy™ inour local store when I was a kid, I assure you that I would have picked that exciting egg full ofwonder and delicious treat in a heartbeat!In case you haven’t seen or heard, Kinder Joy™ is now available in the U.S. If you have never trieda Kinder Joy™, you shouldn’t wait! I’m sure you and your kids will love to try them. Kinder Joy™is a fun treat with two separately sealed halves, a treat side made of two creamy layers and a secondhalf containing an exciting mystery toy.The Joy of Childhood | Live ColorfulI’m not sure who was more excited to see the the Kinder Joy™ display in our local store lastweek, my toddler or me.This afternoon, after finishing lunch, I let my son open his first Kinder Joy. I wish you could haveseen his excitement when he saw the treat, and then when he discovered that there was a toy in theother side of the egg.The Joy of Childhood | Live ColorfulHe said he didn’t know what he liked best, the treat or the mystery toy. But I have thefeeling it was the combination of both surprises that made the treat even more magical.We finished our treats and then played avioncito together. I tried to teach him about the rules of the game and how I used to play with my friends, but he just ended up running and jumping on the squares, which was also fun and cute. The important thing in the end was that special moment that we shared together, just like the ones I used to have when I was a kid.The Joy of Childhood | Live Colorful
