      Thank you for the opportunity to trial these yoghurts. Strawberry was a firm favourite with both my boys. Banana was enjoyed by my 4 year old but my 8 year old found it too sweet. Blueberry was a bit hit and miss as the kids were a little undecided but they did finish it. Loved the packaging and the serving size was spot on.

    2. Debbieandcayden 10/03/2020 at 5:15 pm

      We were very lucky to try these my 6 year old loved the strawberry flavour the best but still liked the other flavours. The packaging is really colourful and eye-catching we will definitely be buying these more often.

    3. Tashakobe 10/03/2020 at 5:07 pm

      I received the vouchers a bit late hence the late review. It was a bit hard finding a supermarket close to us that sells these, finally found one in Hamilton.

      My 5 year old twin girls tried these in strawberry and both loved it. They loved the packets and hope pink they were. Being in a pouch is so easy, the girls can take the lid off themselves although they can’t take these in their lunchboxes as they do nude food boxes.

      My 12 year old tried it and didn’t like it but I’m guessing that’s the no added sugar part for her. I like the probiotics as that will help keep the girls healthy.

      All in all a great hit with my family. Will definitely be buying again.

      We are a berry loving household here 💁🏽‍♀️ So the flavours we choose we’re the blueberry and strawberry. Mr 13 doesnt like yoghurt so I couldn’t convince him to try it but mr 11 miss 9 and mr 3 all throughly enjoyed it. Two of my kids couldn’t wait to eat it so they had theirs for breakfast. The toddler had two pouches. We froze all the pouches so they stayed nice and cool on a warm day. Yogurts are never normally eaten in lunchboxes but they came back empty which was great. I’m loving the fact that there is no added sugar and the kids didn’t notice this either until I mentioned that then they decided to say it was sour (mind over matter). 3/4 kids enjoyed and would/have already bought again

      The strawberry flavour was a huge hit with my three year old son – he just loved them! I think probably because they weren’t really sweet and were easy to have on the go – so he could still run around while eating his kai! The blueberry flavour wasn’t so popular unfortunately. I would buy the strawberry again and would like to try the other flavours but they only had the two at our loc supermarket.

    6. Cheekybabes 09/03/2020 at 10:13 am

      We were super lucky to have been chosen for the Kefir Probots yoghurt trial.
      We have been a supporter of The Collective yoghurts for quite some time and was super excited to be able to try out this latest yoghurt with the added benefits of the probiotics!
      As always, the packaging is so appealing – bright and colourful and I was really happy to see the variety of flavours available.
      The kids had two each and no surprises – they loved them all! I think I’ll be buying these from now on knowing all the extra goodness they have in them and will also be keeping an eye out for when the new Boysenberry flavour comes out!

    7. Trinitytwydle1 08/03/2020 at 7:57 pm

      My one year old son, got to try all four flavours which was blueberry, strawberry, banana and mango.
      I loved the packaging for these products as they were so bright and were exciting for the kids.
      The blueberry and mango were my son’s favourite, he ate the whole packet and just wanted more. It was very sweet and tasted like blueberry and mango.
      But the strawberry and banana, he wasn’t as big of a fan, I tried it. And noticed compared to the blueberry and mango, that it was quite sour or tangy.
      But I would highly recommend this product as the kids just love the colours of the packages and it’s awesome how they are in Squeeze packages.
      So easy for the kids to take in school lunch or for my one year old son to suck on.

    8. Yasminn 05/03/2020 at 8:48 pm

      Wow what a treat! A healthy one! My 2.5 yo loves this! We got the mango coz that’s his absolute favourite. We have a blueberry awaiting in the fridge. He loves having them in the morning on the way to preschool. Love the size and convenience. And the fact that they’re fresh. Great product with no crazy amounts of sugar.

    9. Missgoldie 05/03/2020 at 4:22 pm

      My girls have thoroughly enjoyed these delicious yoghurt pouches. I did have some difficulty in finding them in our town but finally after 2 trips to 2 different supermarkets I finally managed to get some. Our vouchers never arrived unfortunately, lost somewhere to the rural mail, but I didn’t want the girls to not do a review so I purchased some myself and the only flavours I could find was the strawberry & banana. They loved both flavours but especially the strawberry, and both commented about how sweet and delicious they were. The girls didn’t mention any difference to regular yoghurt which is a great plus and I love it’s much gentler on tummies! Both girls commented about how cool the packaging was & both found them easy to open (they are 3 & 5). As a Mum I love how they are low in sugar & a better choice for them in the pouch yoghurt variety! Will definitely be purchasing again.

    10. Cfmjm 05/03/2020 at 3:36 pm

      Thank you for choosing us for this review!

      My kids loved these!! My sons favourite was the Mango and my daughter loved strawberry! We definitely loved the packaging it was easy to find and the kids loved the spaceship design. I love that these are lactose free so they were gentle on my wee ones tummies. The probitotics were a feature I loved!

      Thanks so much for an awesome product, I will be buying these instead of other yoghurt for my kiddies from now on.

    11. Emmzip 03/03/2020 at 7:56 am

      Thank you for the opportunity to review the collective yogurt. Unfortunately my local supermarket didn’t have the new kefir pouches available so I picked 4 of the orginial collective yogurt pouches instead.

      I got a raspberry, strawberry, banana and blueberry pouch. All 4 children really enjoyed their yogurt pouches and were looking for more. I love the cute, bright packaging of the collective products – it’s very eye catching.

      I love that the kefir probots has no added sugar and is full of probictics for good gut health. We will be buying the new pouches when they’re available at our local to try them. Thank you!

    12. Kazand2girls 02/03/2020 at 9:18 pm

      Thankyou for the chance to review these awesome yoghurts!!
      My Miss 6yrs enjoyed the Mango and the Blueberry flavours, both as an addition to her lunchbox, which they fit in easily (yumbox). I was pleased to hear she enjoyed them as they are not quite as sweet as the usual “squeeze yoghurts” she would have occasionally. She liked the rockets in the packaging.
      Miss 20months also enjoyed hers, the banana flavour as an addition to her breakfast & the strawberry as an on-the-go snack.
      I love that they have no added sugar and the benefits of probiotics, disguised in the usual squeeze yoghurt style, so the kids don’t know it’s actually good for them! I can say ‘yes’ more often now when begged for a squeeze yoghurt at the supermarket 😊
      I tasted a bit of the banana one and wondered why it was almost a bit sherbet like on my tongue….. But apparently according to the packet that means the kefir is on point!!

    13. Chompy101 28/02/2020 at 7:31 pm

      We choose all 4 flavours, my daughter couldn’t wait and had the strawberry one in the supermarket and loved it, she was also pretty fascinated with the rocket on the package and kept asking for a rocket out of the fridge, she also really enjoyed the mango over the other 2 flavours. Would definitely recommend to others for a easy snack on the go

      • Ditto85 04/03/2020 at 9:18 pm

        My daughters absolutely loved these yoghurts and so did I. The way the company valued us as customers (sending the yoghurts out via courier when our vouchers didnt arrive) was a great start to our trial and it really meant a lot. My girls loved these yoghurts, my 6 year old demolished one the day it arrived and loved all 4 flavors, her favorite being strawberry. My 20 month old simply says yum and yells yoghurt by the fridge when she sees the pouch in there. And I love them as it’s good for their gut and it has less sugar than other yoghurt. I would definitely buy again as its great on the go. I would also buy them if they came in big jars where I can repackage into my daughters little reusable containers for her lunchbox. I tried a little bit from their pouches and it does taste different to regular yoghurt, but my girls aren’t fussed and as long as they’re eating it I’m happy 🙂
        Overall we did love them and I’ll be buying them again.

    14. jeniplatt 28/02/2020 at 7:05 pm

      these yoghurts are amazing. Totally love the bright colours of the satchets and certainly taste good. The kids love them. My autistic littlie is very particular to what he will eat and this is one thing that he seems to love.
      LOve that there is no sugar and this is good for our little ones and big ones too.
      Managed to trial the banana and the strawberry and both were a real hit

    15. Nicole_wood 28/02/2020 at 12:33 pm

      They are delicious, my daughter just loves them she had two when we got home from shopping. This is the first time ever asking for second of any food (she has never been a big water) so I highly recommend them and I will be getting more because she loves them. Very happy that we got chosen for this review

    16. Chirp 28/02/2020 at 9:58 am

      We went and redeemed our vouchers at our local New World. Miss 5 and Mr 6 chose a strawberry and blueberry flavour each to try. Miss 5 said the taste was a bit too strong. She ate them but wasn’t a huge fan and preferred normal yoghurt to the kefir. Mr 6 loved them though and said they were yum. Didn’t seem to mind or notice the slightly different taste to usual yoghurt at all. This is great because he has a sensitive tum so being lactose and gluten free plus probiotic is perfect for him.

    17. AngelaSW 27/02/2020 at 9:42 pm

      What a great product! My kids absolutely loved these The Collective Kefir Probot pouches. They disappeared as soon as they got their hands on them. So much so that I had to go and buy more.
      I love that there is no added sugar in these, yet my kids didn’t once complain about the flavour. We tried Strawberry and Mango originally, and have also bought Blueberry… we’ve yet to find the Banana but I am sure it will be met with the same
      I also love that I know these are doing great things for my children’s bodies as they eat them. I’m thinking of adding these at least once a week into their diets so that I know their good gut bacteria are regularly getting a boost.
      I would love to be able to buy them in a larger container that I can portion out into reusable containers to lessen the environmental impact, although I’m not sure how that might impact on the live probiotics.
      Overall, a great product we will definitely be purchasing again

    18. Missmel123 27/02/2020 at 1:24 pm

      These yoghurts were great not only low in sugar but the added benefit helping maintain a healthy gut was awesome -we got our free ones and since have purchased more.
      My 4 year old is constantly asking for another one he said he likes the slightly fizzy feeling from the keifer , our favourite flavour is blueberry . We’ve used the yoghurt in smoothies aswell as lunchbox and as a snack , I 110% highly rate this product , would be awesome if it could be purchased in a big tub as I am conscious of plastic use

    19. Jassie 26/02/2020 at 4:21 pm

      Thank you for the opportunity to try these yoghurts. We are big fans of The Collective yoghurt in our house and have been buying the big tubs for a while so it was a pleasure to see they now make pouches. I tried a bit of the blueberry and thought the flavour a bit more subtle than the big tubs but not sure as I didn’t have them side by side to compare. We tried Blueberry, Mango and Strawberry. The kids (age 5 and 1) loved them, my 1 year old was reluctant to hand over the pouch when it was finished. These have low sugar, just over a teaspoon per pouch and I like that they have a good amount of cultures for assisting good gut health. They are a bit more expensive than the pouches we usually buy however I would buy these again.

      Thanks for the opportunity to review these yoghurts. Our household loves pouch yoghurts and frequently buy other brands as I was not familiar with this brand. We reviewed 1 of each flavour. I was a bit worried that my 2 year old yoghurt lover would notice the difference in flavours and not be a fan but he seemed very happy with the yoghurts – all flavours. He is normally a strawberry and blueberry fan. The pouches are colourful and eye catching and I found the spout a lot easier to open than other brands. The toddler seemed more than happy to suck on the yoghurts and it definitely makes me feel good knowing about the sugar factor and the Lactose free was interesting. I have a child that has a bowel condition so I do get a bit concerned about the dairy he eats as he loves it but this was a great option for his tummy with so many good things in it for his gut health. Will definitely recommend these yoghurts to friends. The pouch is bright and appealing to the toddlers, he was asking for the rocket yoghurt and found it s a bit easier to squeeze the final parts of the yoghurt out. Thanks for the opportunity.

    21. EmmaWhiting 26/02/2020 at 11:43 am

      Our 1 year old son Walter sucked back a few of these pouches and was really into them. He can’t talk as yet but he hinted the mango flavour was his favorite. Thank you for giving our family some free samples to review! 🙂

    22. Mandy83 26/02/2020 at 10:30 am

      Thank you Kidspot for giving my daughter the opportunity to trial the Kefir Probots. She absolutely loved them! We bought each flavour and the strawberry and banana were her absolute favourite. I will definitely continue buying them as they are a great way for her to include probiotics in her diet. They are the perfect addition to her lunch box now:)
      Thanks again!:)

    23. Amandy 25/02/2020 at 8:32 pm

      I was chosen as a reviewer for this product. I let the kids pick two flavours each that they could review for me.
      Both picked a strawberry and blueberry. Both kids found the blueberry one a little sour but did like it. The strawberry one went down an absolute treat. I love the package size as it fitted perfectly into their lunchbox.
      My daughter is lactose intolerant so it was great knowing I could give her a yoghurt that wasn’t going to upset her tummy since this does not have lactose in it. I tried part of one and found them to be very smooth and creamy. Great knowing that it has the benefits probiotic so I know I’m helping my children’s gut health with these.
      I would definitely buy again and also would recommend. My local store had a multi buy on them at the time which I thought was good.

    24. spap006 25/02/2020 at 7:36 pm

      I have a 5 year old and a 10 year old so they both got involved in the trial. Unfortunately mango wasn’t available, but we bought the other three and a second banana. The 10 year old was excited to read the no sugar added label and both girls thought the rockets on the packaging were cool. Both girls really liked the strawberry flavour and the blueberry although the 10 year old wasn’t so much a fan of the banana. Both girls definitely enjoyed the yoghurts and the 10 year old has suggested we get the mango one later to try.
      Thank you for the opportunity-with plenty of after school activities to drive little people to, these yoghurts would make a nice, healthy snack that is convenient and full of energy.

    25. Shorrty4life1 25/02/2020 at 4:27 pm

      My two children trialed strawberry and banana flavor. Their favourite out of the two was strawberry of course. These were the Only two flavours at pak n save timaru. They found it sweet for a product with no added sugar and really tasty. They found the packaging easy to open and it was handy to put in the freezer and then have a nice chilled yoghurt for school in the morning which is the plan for over night tonight. They don’t take up too much space so easy to pack away in lunch boxes. Only downfall was the price at $1.65 per one it starts to get Abit expensive for two children and 5 each a week it’s around $15 just on yoghurt a week so it’ll definitely come as one of those things we do as a treat. Or if on special then I will definitely grab some. The kids definitely thought they were delicious yoghurt’s though so we are giving this product 8/10 overall.

    26. Jackie Horgan 25/02/2020 at 1:44 pm

      My 2 and 5 yr olds tried the strawberry and blueberry as that was what was available at our supermarket.
      I wasn’t sure if they would like them as the usual pots they normally have are sweetened. My kids usually have fruit pouches too so they liked the idea of yoghurt pouches and were very excited to try them. They really enjoyed them, so much so that they wanted another as soon as they had finished them. My 2 year old said it’s her favourite.

      I really like the convenience of the pouch. Normally my sons lunch box comes home covered in yoghurt from his pot as they have to bring their rubbish home. The pouches eliminate this mess.
      The fact that the sugars are from milk, fruit and fibre are great, no added artificial sweeteners.
      The best bit is as it’s a probiotic. it’s great for little tummies.

    27. AmandaB 25/02/2020 at 10:39 am

      Thank you for selecting us to trisleep the yoghurt pouches. My two kiddos loved them! So much so they fought over them. We tried the blueberry and mango flavours and both were devoured in minutes. Perfect for the lunch box and a quick snack on the go. Perfect size for little hands and the no added sugar is a win all round

    28. Madsid123_ 24/02/2020 at 9:07 pm

      I am so happy to be part of this trial because I got to know a healthier snack for my kids. We tried all 4 flavors ( mango, strawberry, banana and blueberry) and they tasted great. I tested all before giving to my kids because I wanted to make sure how it taste before giving them. I loved it for the fact that it has no added sugar and it is good for gut health. I was not sure if my kids would like the taste because they dont like to have any kind of yoghurt. But to my surprise they liked it and infact asking me for more. I loved the convenient packaging and it is easier to be sent in lunch box. I loved the beautiful color of pouches and how well they explain what the pack contains. It taste good when chilled. Once again thanks to Kidspot and Kefir Probots for giving this opportunity.

    29. wild_electra 24/02/2020 at 11:17 am

      we only had strawberry and blueberry available at the supermarket. my kids love sukies and i do find it very convenient for daycare/school and on the go however not always good for the environment.
      my little one loved them she ate 2 of each flavour ! i tried and i cannot see the difference with other yoghurt even thought this one is lactose free and no added sugar which is a bonus! would def buy it but would be good to have them in a big jar

    30. Flutterbye 24/02/2020 at 9:56 am

      We love these yummy pouches. I went to the Supermarket and bought all 4, Mango, Strawberry, Blueberry and Banana. The Packaging is bright and easy to see in the Chilled Aisle. My Toddlersaurus Boy who is 3 wanted to open one straight away. He enjoyed the Banana Pouch while I did the shopping, so very convenient in a Suckie Pouch (no mess, no dropped spoon or tub on the ground), one very happy customer. I was worried that he may not like it because of the no sugar factor, but very surprised he loved it. He also tried the Mango Flavour and polished that off in seconds too on the way to Kindy yesterday (again great for when travelling in the car). My two older boys saw them in the fridge and asked for one in their lunchbox. I didnt think they would like the flavours and the no sugar factor, but they both came home and said they were nice, better than another brand they had tried before and not liked. Definitely will buy again for my little one, as love the no sugar added and the health benefits of the probiotics and the variety of flavours is awesome. My kids thought it would be good to put in the freezer overnight so by lunch time it is still nice and cold to have in Summer. Thanks for the chance to review, definitely will recommend to family and friends.
