My Favorite Summer Time Snack or Side

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Pringles® Summer Jam.

Our family seems to travel quite a bit during the summer months. So far, this summer alone, I’ve been to 3 different theme parks with my kids. That’s not a normal thing for me, but this summer, that’s just the way it worked out. On many of our trips, we tend to pack lunches to save money. We discovered that 2 of the 3 theme parks are so incredibly family friendly that they let you bring food in! Pretty cool, huh?

We typically always bring sandwiches and chips, but we’ve found that if we ever bring bagged chips, they get crushed. So….instead, we always pack Pringles®. We love the variety of flavors and just love that we don’t have to eat smashed chips. But another fun thing, we love how we can make music with the cans. Have you ever taken a Pringles can and used it as a drum? Or taken the last little bit of chips in there and used it as a shaker? Yeah… me, too. In fact, I used to do it when I was little, too. As soon as a can of Pringles® was eaten, I’d grab the empty can and stash it in my room for some drums. I think I borrwowed some of my mom’s pots and pans for this drum set as well.

Funny enough, I never went on to play the drums. I did however learn to play the piano and the flute. My mom was a piano teacher and instilled the love of music in our lives at an early age. She’s even taught my kids to play the piano and my son is now taking guitar lessons. Music has long sense a part of our lives!

We were having a Pringles® party outside, trying out our can drums and the baby (toddler, really) kept stealing them. She just happens to love Pringles®, too!

It turns out that I’m not the only one to ever try out playing the drums on my Pringles® cans. Apparently, it’s an online sensation. Pringles® has challenged Percussion Prodigies to try out their Pringles® cans as drums and you should see some of the pieces they put together. Here’s a video that was shared on the Pringles® website.

This one is probably my favorite….

But there’s several more good ones on their site here.
