A party at the park with kids sounds like fun for many families, but for this get together we were looking to take our afternoon outside to the next level. The first step was inviting a few of our friends and their kids to join us. The next step was deciding on food. It is summer, and the day was hot, so it was clear we needed something tasty to cool everyone down. We had a bunch of kids and adults so whatever we chose had to work for everyone. This is where Yasso Frozen Greek Yogurt came in.
I remember as a young kid, playing with my friends in the neighborhood, and hearing the serenade of the ice cream man. There was no sweeter music in our neighborhood. Our ears were finely tuned to recognize his song and be able to make it inside to scrounge up change, and outside again to stop him, just in the nick of time. We would lineup to fill our stomachs with the amazing treats that he produced.
Although those ice cream bars were fun, I know now how unhealthy they were. This is why I loved handing out Yasso to my family and friends, I was able to be the ice cream man. Only this time I knew I was giving them a healthier, but still tasty, alternative to the typical run of the mill ice cream bar.

I just drove down to my local grocery store and picked up some boxes of the four flavors (but Yasso has tons of varieties) that the store carried. The great thing was that there was enough so everyone got to choose whatever flavor they wanted and there was no fighting over the last one. We handed the Yasso bars out to the kids first. They had worked up a sweat at the playground so they couldn't wait to get their hands on these. The hardest part was choosing what flavor. Everyone had had the challenge of choosing between Mint Chocolate Chip, Sea Salt Caramel, Dark Chocolate Raspberry, and Peanut Butter Cup.
The kids made their choices and those frozen yogurt bars kept the peace for the rest of our time there. As parents we know how precious that time is. The best part was that all the parents were able to enjoy their time as well. We visited and laughed (of course we tried the Yasso bars too, because we couldn't let the kids have all the fun).
the part of the Yasso bars that impressed me as much as the taste was what was missing from them. I'm talking about the calories, gluten, and artificial sweeteners. I couldn't believe there was only 100-130 calories in each bar, no gluten, and no artificial sweeteners. Each bar is made with only natural ingredients, and because it's made with real greek yogurt, there is plenty of protein in there!
Needless to say the party at the park was a hit. The kids ran, and jumped, and played. The adults pushed babies on swings, chased the kids around, and caught up with what was going on with each other's families. The party was great but most importantly it brought friends together for a brief moment to share good times and good dessert.
The best news for you is that you can share your own great times this summer like I did. Grab your kids, go play outside, and get your favorite flavor of Yasso frozen greek yogurt. Create your own memories that your family will talk about for years to come.
