Since becoming a parent there are two things that have changed. #1 – I am up really early. #2 – I have taken global issues way more serious. I am leaving this earth for my kids and their kids. I want my littles to understand that the Earth is here for us, and we need to be here for it. Which is why recycling has become so important to not only me but the rest of the world – Including Entenmann’s. I am so happy to announce that Entenmann’s has partnered with TerraCycle to help us all recycle those Little Bites Pouches and turn them into  park benches, recycling bins, and playgrounds.

As soon as my kids walk in the door from school, they are immediately starving! After a busy day at school and with dinnertime still a couple of hours away I love when I can find quick yummy snacks. Entenmann’s® Little Bites® are the perfect pre-portioned pouches of delicious baked snacks. I love that because they are pre-portioned with four little muffins my kids can quickly grab a bag after school while they start homework and I start dinner prep.   Entenmann’s® Little Bites® has partnered with TerraCycle®, an international recycling company that turns waste into plastic that will be used for products such as park benches, recycling bins, and playgrounds. This is a free recycling program!   After your kids have enjoyed their snack, they can learn about recycling by collecting their pouches. Then you ship the pouches to TerraCycle® for processing using a pre-paid shipping label. So easy and such a great way to teach kids all about how important recycling is and how it works. Now through March TerraCycle® and Entenmann’s® Little Bites® will reward you for making eco-friendly habits by Making the Pledge.

When it comes to the snacks I enjoy, I find that I have quite a sweet tooth, and when I add the sweet mini cakes from the Entenmann’s® Little Bites® line up, I can enjoy those sweet snacks without having to worry about those large amounts of calories that can come with the majority of sweets. Well along with the Little Bites that we enjoy in my home, I also like that right now through March 31st, when I head to the store to stock up on those sweet treats I adore, I can also help my kids K-12 school for recycling the bags! I was told about this amazing initiative through a campaign with TerraCycle® and Entenmann’s® Little Bites®, and after hearing about it, I was not only excited to get started in my own home but also share it with you, my readers!   See with TerraCycle®, you get a recycling company who turns that waste into plastic that can be then used to make park benches, playgrounds, recycling bins and more! And with this amazing initiative, I can take those empty pouches of the Entenmann’s® Little Bites® after myself and my family have eaten the treats inside and be rewarded for making a eco-friendly pledge. The pledge is simple too. All I have to do is collect and send in the bags after we have used them, and even earn rewards! I also like learning from the video below, that I can even recycle the boxes and turn them into useful organizers for my home.   Then with my kids class, when we as a whole make the pledge and send in our waste, we can then enter our kids class in a random drawing to win a Classroom Party! The Classroom Party is a fun way to get the kids excited to start saving those bags as well as encourage the community to help out as well. Making this initiative that will not only benefit the community, but also help to encourage others to take a eco-friendly pledge so together we can all make a difference! And to help with taking that first step in making your own eco-friendly pledge with Entenmann’s® Little Bites® and TerraCycle®, the wonderful people from Entenmann’s® would like to give one of my amazing readers 3 coupons, each valid for $5.00 off the purchase of any Entenmann’s® Little Bites® and a $25 Visa gift card to use purchase additional Entenmann’s® Little Bites®!
