New Survey Shows Only 9% of Children Get Their 5-a-day, Every Day.

Do you struggle to get 5 portions of fruit and vegetables into your child’s diet?

I have to admit that it is a daily struggle for me, particularly with the boys as they are so fussy with their food.

Fruit Bowl have recently commissioned a survey to highlight the difficulties that parents face in edging their children closer to the daily fruit and vegetable targets.

The survey shows that only 9% of children are currently reaching the recommended 5 a day intake every day, with 11% never getting their 5 a day.

The survey shows that despite government campaigns and increasing awareness around the benefits of a healthy, balanced diet, parents are still struggling to help their children aged 12 and under reaching their five a day target for fruit and vegetables. This is supported by Mintel’s recent survey which shows that 50% of parents who buy snacks for children agree that it is hard to get children to eat healthier snack.

Fruit Bowl understand the struggle parents face in getting their children to reach their five a day. That’s why they’re putting the fun into fruit by creating their customised Snack Spinner. Engage your child with a healthier snack time by allowing them to spin the spinner to choose their own snacks – fruit made fun! Fruit Bowl are also giving the limited edition spinners away via their Facebook and Instagram pages – look out for competitions across the channels! 

Fruit Bowl offers an exciting range of irresistibly tasty and fun to eat fruit snacks and have a healthy snacking solution that works for you and satisfies little tummies too! Readily available at Morrisons, Sainsbury’s, Tesco, The Co-Op, Asda, Waitrose and on Ocado, you’re never far from Fruit Bowl!

Thanks to the team at Fruit Bowl I have a Multipack of Fruit Bowl Products and a Snack Spinner to giveaway to three lucky readers.
