It has been a true pleasure hosting our first drawing contest here at 5 Minutes for Mom.

Thank you to Yoplait Kids yogurt for sponsoring such a creative and fun contest.

Looking over the entries was a true delight. As you can imagine, picking our top 15 finalists was tough!!!!

Thank you to all of the children who took the time to enter our “Strong and Happy” drawing contest. We hope that you all had as much fun drawing your pictures as we had looking at them.

Since Yoplait Kids is a tasty yogurt snack with calcium, vitamin D and 25% less sugar than the leading kids’ yogurt, we asked for those entering the contest to draw a picture showing themselves as the happy and strong kids that Yoplait Kids can help them become.
