I don't think I've ever gotten anything for either LO at Starbucks, and I don't think they've ever asked. But my coworker was telling me that she sometimes gets her daughter a smoothie from there. Do usually get a milk or juice or something else for your child when you get yourself a coffee?
-
I occasionally get hot chocolate for him, but far more often I get him a snack - for a long time it was banana bread, then a cake pop, now he's into the sugar cookies.
-
I get her a chocolate milk. Not every time though.
-
Nope!
I only go every once in a long while so it's just a treat for me! I do get him a munchkin at DD though if we go there.
-
When I lived in Asia, they gave free babycinos - frothed milk with a chocolate sauce smiley- in an espresso cup. But I generally don't buy them something special - though they do like coffee!!
-
Sometimes a milk, but they are happy just to get (free) ice water in the special cup
-
Water with her name on the cup usually does the trick for now!
-
Yesterday she got a kids hot chocolate sometimes chocolate milk but nothing in the drive thru only at Target
-
They have horizon milk cartons so I'll get him that and maybe a cookie. Not just at Starbucks, but any coffee shop we go to.
-
Vanilla milk (the horizons one) or regular little white milk. I would get her a little hot cocoa for a treat but LO hates chocolate
-
No but sometimes we'll share a scone or croissant.
-
Ice water or kids hot chocolate depending on what else we're getting. If I get a smoothie we'll share.
-
Nope, at this age (18mos) he isn't interested in the drinks and would rather watch cars go by through the window.
-
This winter we did a lot of stroller walks that ended with a kids hot chocolate with only one pump of syrup.
-
Ice water usually. Although my LO recently kept stealing my frap! Milk is a good idea, I don't know why I never thought of milk! You could even do a steamed milk.
-
Sometimes the horizon chocolate milk.
-
She loves the croissants so that's usually her request, she loves being water in a Starbucks cup but thankfully has no interest in a drink other than that!
-
My 3 year old daughter is something of a Starbucks fiend... My mom takes us every week when we go visit and now my child will say "Mommy, I am starrrrrving for Starbucks". She always gets something when I go, but I have been cutting back on sugar for both of us so I have been trying to just get her a "fancy" ice water and me a plain coffee or latte.
BTW I highly recommend never taking your child to Starbucks for exactly this reason.
-
She always wants an apple juice box (so overpriced!) and a butter croissant.
-
I get them a kids vanilla cream ( steamed milk with a pump of vanilla) occasionally. They love it
-
Box of chocolate milk or apple juice for my 4 yo. Usually nothing for my younger child (1 yo).
-
Only a couple of times a chocolate milk.
-
yep my kids like the vanilla fraps!
-
A few times I got her those expensive Peter Rabbit pouches because I was caught without a snack for her, but no I don't get her specialty drinks. After a while, I started buying the Peter Rabbit pouches on Amazon so when she asked for the pink rabbit pouch, I could give her one from my bag.
-
@newlypregnantlady: this is what we do we'll ask the barista if they could put the extra milk in a small cup for LO. My kids love steamed milk so it's a great treat for them.
-
Never been to Starbucks with her!
-
@Anagram: I was thinking about buying some of those Peter rabbit pouches for Easter
-
I think I've gotten D a hot chocolate once. Usually I'll just get him a milk box.
-
She's obsessed with muffins but I don't think I've ever gotten her a drink
-
@Anagram: ha! I did the exact same thing as you - I got sick of paying $$$$ for the PR pouches so ordered them online and kept them in my bag. LO would get mad that she didn't hear me order "her order" but then I would always be able to secret it out of my bag when we got to the window so I could be like "see, I ordered it!!"
-
@travellingbee: Usually milk or apple juice. I've also gotten her the strawberry frappucinno on a couple occasions.
She's 2.
-
Hahaha, no. We get him a cup of water and will as long as we can. He's 3 and since we always say no it's never a huge battle. He knows he isn't allowed to have coffee.
At other stores he tries to share with us. I love that when we go to CFA we can get lemonade and he can get water and they look the same because of the cups. I think he is starting to know that we have a more exciting drink than him.
-
I always get her something. Usually a drink and a snack. If I'm getting a treat why shouldn't she? Maybe my kid's spoiled but she would be pissed if I got something for myself and not for her.
-
My 4 yo feels important when he gets a "tall" water.
-
He usually gets a milk or a juice box and a croissant. It's our fun treat on the weekends. He got a hot chocolate once but didn't like it.
-
No I've never gotten him anything. He has had a sip of my coffee though (I only drink decaf) and he seemed to like it. oops!
-
@psw27: ugh every time I try to give my son a sip or bite of something I am sure he won't like so he'll leave it alone, it backfires and he loves it! Bad parenting technique for me both in practice and results! Lol.
-
@mrsbubbletea: I tell him its tea a lot now, which he for some reason has decided he doesn't like (even though I'm pretty sure I've never offered him tea). Usually I'm happy to let him try something I'm eating since it is something I usually wouldn't be able to get him to eat (vegetables! quinoa!) but yes, it backfired with the coffee/lattes.
-
sometimes a kid's hot chocolate.
-
we aren't big starbucks people, but my parents take her occasionally and they usually get her a plain cup of milk. The last time we went she said she wanted MINE OWN CUP OF MILK so I got her one lol
I only go every once in a long while so it's just a treat for me! I do get him a munchkin at DD though if we go there.
