The Ice Cream Man

This shop is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Weave Made Media and Klondike, but all my opinions are my own. #weavemade #KandyBar #ad http://my-disclosur.es/RgFrEH

The chime could resonate around the block and carry across many streets. The ping of that bell would elicit even the most rowdy of children to stop their activity and prick up their ears like a wary foal. "Where is it coming from?" we would say, trying to pinpoint its location like bloodthirsty vampire bats.

Shhhhhh! Pipe down! and when the next ping came, we'd run to the source, gripping that paper or loose change we had just scrounged from the couch cushions trying to run like children possessed to get there first; to procure a that sweetest summer nectar known as ice cream.

I am the first to admit that I regularly treat my kids with ice cream. On a hot day sometimes it is the only sweet relief that not only seems necessary but the expressions on their faces is priceless.

But what about me? What do I get for cleaning pee off the bathroom floor and answering 123,000 questions per day? Often when the kids are asleep and it is just my wife and I relaxing from the hectic day, we indulge ourselves. We turn to ice cream for solstice. We earned it! Parenting should be rewarded with ice cream.

That's why KLONDIKE KANDY Ice Cream Bars are the perfect ending to a crazy day with the kids. Honestly, these ice cream bars are the ones I hide behind the frozen vegetables so that the kids can't find them. With three varieties to choose from with Fudge Crunch, Caramel & Peanuts, or Cookies & Cream, there is something for everyone to enjoy. Just don't let the kids find them!

Here are 5 steps to help you enjoy them more

1) Measure your oldest child's arm length
2) Show the children the box keeping its height beyond the measurement in Step 1
3) Take a photo of their reaction and post it on social media for all your friends to see.
4) Take a video of them watching you unwrap it and then announce that they don't get one.
5) Slowly eat it in front of them stressing the Mmmms and Ahhhs as much as possible.

Parents, take some time to yourself and enjoy Klondike Kandy Bars and forget the kids for awhile, you deserve it! Just how did candy and ice cream come together? Here's the story:
