In the days where technology has basically taken over, we often forget how important it is to spend quality time with our kids. We only get 18 years with them before they’re adults and it’s important to make the most of that time. The key to successful child/parent bonding activities in our home? Plenty of snacks… especially Snyder’s of Hanover® Pretzels and Cape Cod® Chips because those are their favorites!

Shopping

I get my quality time in with our teenager, Lucia, every time I ask her to go shopping with me. One of her favorite stores is Walmart. She loves to visit every aisle and look for deals, especially in the snack aisle. She’s definitely my girl! Starting May 20th, Walmart shoppers can buy $15 worth of participating Cape Cod®, Kettle®, Late July®, Snack Factory®, and Snyder’s of Hanover® products between May 20, 2019 – June 30, 2019 in one transaction and get a $5 Walmart eGift Card. Lucia especially loves those deals because I allow her to redeem that $5 card on something she wants (and at Walmart, there are so many options at or near that price point).

Backyard Camping

With our Snyder’s Lance snacks in hand, it’s Super Dad’s turn for a little one-on-one time. Recently, he pitched a tent in our backyard for a camp out! I loved seeing how much they can learn about each other when there are no screens involved. And although they often disagree, as teenage girls and Dads do, they have so much in common. Snacks, for one.

Find Fun Activities

You’d be surprised just how much fun you can have in your own backyard when you think outside the box. Super Dad and Lucia can always find ways to have fun together. Whether its wheelbarrow races, the seesaw that is clearly too small for them, making s’mores by the fire pit, or talking about life in the treehouse, they are able to have fun together with the most simple of tools. These childhood memories will be something that Lucia will always remember. And that, for us, is the key to a successful bonding moment.

Snap a picture of your receipt, ensuring all the items are in view, and email the photo to snackon@uploadreceipt.com by July 13. Once your purchase have been validated, you will receive a code. You can redeem that code at summersnacking.com by July 27 to receive a $5 Walmart eGift Card. You can use it in-store or online for something to make your day even more fun!

  • Spending time with your kids is always a good thing. I like that you have shown people that it does not have to require lots of money.

  • I love spending quality time with my kiddos. Camping is something I’m not a fan of, but I’m going to give it a chance this summer.

  • Bonding with your kids is such a nice idea. I am looking back and realize that my daughter who is going to college next year is almost out the door so these moments are valuable.

  • We love backyard camping. We try to do it a few times each summer. Such a great way to bond with the kids and break up their routine. I also agree that pretzels are a must at every backyard campout!

  • I love their mini pretzels! They are so good and now I’m craving the kettle chips. I need to stock up on Snyder’s on my next trip to Walmart and get the gift card. What a great deal!

  • Food always bonds our family, that’s for sure. We all love to eat. Walmart has some awesome snack options. My daughter would love to backyard camp, but she’s the only one who likes to be outdoors in our family, so she’d probably be on her own.
