I have kids aged 12 9 and 7. These are great for netball/rugby games and training and even small enough to keep in my handbag. 👍
My girls would love this to try there 9 and 6yrs old, look like the perfect size to take when we go on Bush walk or walking the dog. My 6yr old prefers smaller bottles so this looks perfect size for her
Would love to try these for my girls – I have a Miss 8.5, Miss 5.5 and Miss 2.5, they love water, these bottle look like the perfect size to carry in my handbag !
Miss 5.5 forgets to drink water while at school : this might help her remember!!
I’d love to try these with my 2.5yr old. Always good to be able to encourage water intake with a yummy treat
My kids would love these, although they drink water, they don’t really drink enough, & this would also help with those times when they ask for juice, it would help them to still have something delicious but healthier for them 🙂
My 5 and 8 year old boys would love to try these!
We received a box of yummy apple-flavoured Mini Pump water bottles, thanks to Kidspot.
Firstly, both Miss 8 and I REALLY like the taste of these: they’re refreshing, a bit more exciting than just plain water, and they definitely encourage my child to drink more! She keeps asking me for ‘another bottle’, and I’m happy to give her as many as she wants in one go as they contain no sugar, sweeteners or preservatives. As you can see by the picture I’m uploading with this review, Miss 8 has been sipping on them with a piece of fruit after dinner in the evenings! As a mum, it’s sometimes a struggle to ensure kids are properly hydrated and eating/drinking well, especially if they’re a bit fussy (like my girl can be). So these are a really good way to get children to drink water! I also like how small and transportable the bottles are – they fit effortlessly into handbags or backpacks and I even took a few to work with me this week! The other thing I really like about the bottles is that they’re 100% recyclable, which is important in the current plastic-waste crisis. So these little snack-sized pump bottles get a lot of ticks from us – both in terms of keeping ourselves healthy and keeping our precious environment healthy. The only tiny negative I found when trialling this product is that Miss 8 struggled a bit initially to get the lid off the bottles. Not a biggie as I’m on hand to take it off for her, but this is just worth noting if you are including one of these Mini Pump bottles in school lunch boxes. Make sure your kiddies are able to get the lids off themselves first before packing one for school. I guess it depends on the child though as some kids may find it relatively easy to get off. Also, in terms of transportability, at least you know the lid is reliable and water won’t leak inside bags or backpacks. So, overall, I think this product is great and I’ll definitely be purchasing in the future! Just be aware – they’re a little addictive (for adults too!).
I have a 3 year old and a 1 year old. They are very good at drinking water, but they feel extra special when they have their own bottles and special flavours. This would make me not feel so guilty. Plus it sounds like quite a convenient size.
I would love the opportunity for my kids 6 and 12 years old to try these drinks, this would be a great healthy option instead of juice.
My toddler (3 next month) LOVES water, so I think these would go down a treat 🙂 I love the mini bottles concept, as the bigger ones, when full, can be a tad heavy for little hands 🙂
Thanks so much for the opportunity to review the pumped mini drinks! We received the apple flavour and my 3 children liked the flavour but didn’t love it. I think they may have enjoyed it more if the flavour was slightly more concentrated as I found the flavour myself a little too watery. I LOVE the fact though it has no nasties at all – no sugars, preservatives, etc. The 2 younger kids had trouble removing the cap but could open and close the nozzle themselves and my 8 year old had no trouble at all. We used these drinks on a variety of outings including the beach, playgrounds, soccer games and at home. I love the convenient size and shape of the bottle, a little adjustment to concentration of flavour and I think it would be the perfect on-the-go drink for our family!!
I have a 3 year old boy and think these would be the perfect way to get more water into him! So glad that someone has finally released a drink with no added sugar AND no sweetener!
My two year old daughter, Eve, would love to try these! We have a 10 week old baby boy as well so it would make getting out the door a lot easier to grab and go! She would love the flavours too.
Thanks for the opportunity to try the Apple flavoured Mini Pump water bottles. Out of my 3 children, only 1 enjoyed the apple water, the other two weren’t fussed on the flavour. The size and shape of the bottles was great and we have recycled them in our cupboard for future use. Would suggest that perhaps a citrus flavour might have been more popular in our house eg. lime or lemon.
We were thrilled to receive our Mini Pump apple flavoured water. My five year old loved the flavour and drank a whole bottle easily which is great as she is sometimes reluctant to drink water. She couldn’t open the lid though and I found it difficult to open as well so there is room for improvement there. We have used them at home for treats and also on day trips. They wouldn’t be a regular purchase for us as we try and limited our single serve single use plastic but I would use them for a healthy treat and for trips especially in the summer time when more fluid is needed. We have saved a few for a healthy options at the upcoming birthday party. I’m sure they will go down a treat with the kids. Thank you for the opportunity.
We would love to try out the out the pumped mini with five kids I’m always needing a convenient easy fun bottle for the children that won’t leak or take up too much room
Thanks so much for sending us through the box of apple Pumped Mini. These were not only a hit with my own kids but for their friends and family when they came over. I love that the nozzle is so easy for little hands to use and that I know they are getting the water they need into them and it’s healthy but the kids think it’s a ‘treat’.
Thanks so much!
Thank you for our box of Apple flavor pump mini bottles. 5 of our 6 kids tried these. 11 year old was a big fan. 9 & 8 year old weren’t to fussed on them. 2 & 3 year old skulled them back while they were sick. But won’t drink them anymore. Thanks for letting them try
My four little ones have love having the pump mini bottles, we got to try the apple flavored one. My two oldest have been taking them to school and they have been coming back empty , that is so good to see in the colder months because I know my kids don’t drink enough water 🙂 we have also been having them on walks and just around the home. I had to open the bottle for my two younger children (2 and 4) older kids found it easy. The kids have love the flavor and are always wanting more
Thank you Kidspot for allowing us to trial this product. We had pineapple Mini Pump but unfortunately the boys were not a fan of it at all. Normally our eldest is a fan of pineapple but he found this too artificial as opposed to fresh pineapple. The size of it was great and easy to put into lunch boxes or take to sport. I think they would have preferred apple flavour as they both are big fans of apple juice. Thank you once again for allowing us to trial.
We would love to try these! We all love water in this house (especially the kids) and it would be nice for them to have handy little pump bottles of water that have a bit of taste to it.
I would love my kids to try this ! At 7, 6 and 3 they love juice and pf course fizzy when they get it! Would be great to see them having a healthier choice that has some flavour for them to enjoy !
Thank you for letting us trial the new pump. My LO got excited just by receiving the box. I helped him open one bottle, he loved it so much that he went ahead and lined them all out on the box. I tried one myself- it has nice mild flavour. Good size for packing in his bag. Will definitely buy again, but probably the pineapple flavour this time 😊
Thankyou for giving my two the opportunity to try these! They loved them and was a great healthy option for them. The super tops were awesome and saved them from spilling. The size is perfect too !
Thanks again!
Thank you very much Kidspot NZ for the case of apple flavoured Mini Pump water bottles. My four kids loved them! Such a nice little treat. I usually give them plain water to drink, so as you could imagine, they thought apple flavoured sparkling water was the bees knees! I washed and reused the bottles afterwards. Such a perfect fit for the school lunch box. I even tried one, and enjoyed the taste of it. It wasn’t too strong in flavour or too fizzy. Would highly recommend. My mother saw the bottles and positively commented on the look and size of them. I would consider purchasing in the future. But will go for the pineapple next time, as I’m sure it tastes just as delicious. Thanks again. Sorry, I didn’t attach a photo of my kids with their bottles. Neither of my photos would upload as they all exceeded 2MB.
My son is a huge fan of water and the fruits pineapple and apple – he would love the opportunity to try either of these with water.
Wow these look awesome
My kids love water so these would be awesome to try, would also share them with my nieces and nephews.
Love the flavours 🍏🍍
My daughter is 2 and Im always looking for ways to encourage drinking more water as I don’t give her any other type of drink I.e. juice etc.
We recieved the pump mini pineapple flavour. Between all 3 of my boys the all said it was yummy. They all preferred to drink drunk there pump bottles than to have a normal glass of water. The size of the bottles was perfect for them it was just the right amount. I loved the fact that it had no sugar also which is a bonus.
My son is 5 and daughter is 2.5. Would love to try these as something different and a healthy option over juice
My boy is almost 2. I would love to trial these as he’s good with his water and loves natural fruit juice as a treat. Even though it’s natural this would be a great alternative. And would even be great for me to try 🙂
