The transition from summer to school signals the start of busier schedules, which can make it challenging for families to stay connected and maintain healthy eating habits. To help everyone stay on track, Nestlé once again celebrates the new school year with an exciting back-to-school program featuring helpful tips, nutritious meal ideas and family-fun activities on NestleFamily.com/backtoschool.

«We know family health and happiness is a parent’s top priority and the busy back-to-school season can be a difficult time to manage it all,» said Becky Chao, Mom Insights Director, Nestlé. «Whether it’s ideas for a nutritious family-style meal or other family-fun activities, we’re pleased to offer our support through a variety of helpful back-to-school resources parents can use to meet their goals throughout the school year.»

In addition to staying connected and eating well, Nestlé is excited to help make the back-to-school transition easier on the family wallet with this year’s «Happy New School Year» Sweepstakes, which provides families the chance to win the grand prize of $5,000 to help with back-to-school essentials, plus a $2,000 Nestlé literacy grant to support their school. By entering every day, parents can increase their chances to win the grand prize, and enter for a chance to win a daily prize of a Crayola® Dry-Erase Family Creativity Pack.
