I have lucked out with good eaters. And still, my four and seven year old have a talent for suddenly hating a food they loved only days before. Based on the responses in my mom chat, this switch-up is frustrating, but normal. Luckily multiple moms recommended a win-win solution for everyone. 

Hiya, the brand we know and love for their clean, sugar-free vitamins and chocolate greens, recently launched a grass-fed whey Daily Growth + Protein, made specifically for kids. Here’s what you need to know about this magical sweet cream-flavored powder made of whole-food and organic ingredients.

It’s Sneaky Good for Them

Beyond grass-fed whey protein isolate – complete with all essential amino acids – Hiya's formula includes: a targeted amino acid blend, organic MCT oil, coconut milk, and a mineral blend for strong bones. It supports muscle development, bone strength, digestion, and energy for picky eaters and growing littles, and somehow…

It Tastes Like a Milkshake

This part is the most surprising. My kids genuinely love this stuff. At the end of the day, no matter how nutritious something is, it doesn’t matter if your little ones won’t eat or drink it. Made with natural vanilla, banana, and cinnamon, this protein blend tastes like a sweet cream milkshake – and also contains 0g of added sugar. Zero!

A Brand Parents Can Trust

Supplements are an unregulated space, which means the bar for transparency matters. Hiya clears it. Every batch is third-party tested for heavy metals, microbials, and contaminants, and the formula holds a Clean Label Project Purity Award (the most rigorous independent safety certification out there). 

Made for How You Live

Just mix it with water or milk and you're done — no blender or prep necessary. On top of that, Hiya delivers on a pediatrician-recommended monthly schedule, so running out mid-month isn't something I've had to think about. It genuinely makes all of our lives better, and that is a win I’ll take!
