My children are never happier, sillier, or fun loving than at meal times. They LOVE to eat and talk and joke and laugh, it’s just who they are. It drives me crazy but it shouldn’t – they live perfectly in each moment and enjoy everything they do. 
Nothing brings out the funny sillies in my boys like Goldfish® crackers. I know as a mom I’m supposed to discourage my kids from playing with their food but… when it comes to Goldfish crackers I just can’t do it. No matter where we are – at home, on the road, in the grocery store, at the park – our Goldfish crackers are the main character of whatever dramatic, creative tale my children are weaving as they snack. 
So when I heard about The Goldfish Tales campaign launched in February of this year found on GoldfishSmiles.com, I loved it! Children just can’t enjoy Goldfish crackers without making their own Goldfish Tale and now there’s a fun place for parents all over to share their children’s special Goldfish moments, photos, and stories. 
We’ve been having plenty of fun creating our own Goldfish Tales this week. Our Goldfish crackers have been well loved and since I gave my boys the go-ahead to “play with their food” they sure did. Gus made a fancy fish tank for his Goldfish crackers and Elliot created a wooden block village for his fish to enjoy. Plus, he wrote a special poem:
The Goldfish
A fish has fins to swim-im-im
So he swims down with his fin-in-in.
I love to eat Goldfish-ish-ish
With my fishy tooth-ooth-ooth.
(He has a front tooth starting to grow in that he calls his Fish Tooth. I don’t really get it, but it’s still adorable!)
