SMA PRO Growing Up Milk Liquid 200ml is rated 4.7 out of 5 by 252.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Keeamy from So easy wit a toddler I'm so happy to have tried this after deciding to carry on formula instead of changing to cows milk. My son has taken to this change so easily, we tried cows milk and he just didn't seem to want it so how great that I can move from follow on milk to toddler milk from the brand I've used and trust. So much info on packaging to reassure that he's still getting all he needs and so much easier to just pour rather than the task of boiling cooling and mixing powders, just open and go, my son info's happy to drink this cold too which makes my life much easier....just wish info's known about this with my daughter.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Chibsortig from perfect for busy mums I love these cartons and so does my little one she feels like one of the bigger kids when using them. She prefers the milk in this format compared to the others. I like the fact it doesnt have to be kept in the fridge so it doesnt matter if you forget about it whilst its in the change bag. It can be used without heating or cooling straight from the carton with a straw. They are great for popping in the change bag no bottles/beakers needed to decant into. Its just the right serving size for a toddler. I can leave a couple at grandmas house and at nursery and it doesnt matter if we forget her cup. Even better for trips to the park instead of leaky beakers and great on picnics.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Gemma0606 from Sma toddler milk We was really excited to try out this milk when our parcel arrived. We got off to a good start but been slightly bumpy since. My daughter does not like the powder at all. However she loves the taste of the ready made cartons (seems sweeter, yes ive tasted it myself!) , she drinks the whole thing no with no problems. She really likes the cartons with the straw, makes drinking it more fun than having it in a cup. The cartons make it so much easier for me also, no messing measuring scoops, water etc. Just open the fridge, grab a carton and it's good to go! Would recommend the cartons to everyone, fab product and such an easy way of ensuring my daughter gets the nutrition she needs.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Kay0502 from Great for growing toddlers My son has always been a little picky when it comes to his milk but he took to this one straight away. He has been having it morning and night and has even asked for it in the day which definitely means it’s a winner with him. My first impression was that the cartoned smells a little sweet but when I tasted it it didn’t taste that way. I really like that I know he is getting plenty of vitamins to help him grow from drinking this milk. The single use cartons are fab. The fact they come with a straw make him feel very grown up. The only problem is he liked to squeeze the carton so we have started pouring it into a beaker for him. I have already recommended it to friends with toddlers!

Rated 5 out of 5 by JohnR from My boy loves the cartons! - they are so handy too! My toddler loves loves this milk and he prefers the premade cartons to the tinned powder, i think mainly because he can carry it and use the straw! incidently i love that the straw is just right for small kids to drink from and is sealed with small holes at the end, preventing it coming out too fast. Make sure that you use the large carton within a couple of days in the fridge as it will not be as fresh. i spoke to a few people who already know about SMA and it seems to be the choice for most as it is the brand which is top of the recognised baby milk brands, has been for a number of years.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Kirsty L from Great for my fussy milk drinker I had previously tried SMA milk with my daughter and she didn't like it as a baby. So i haf my reservations at first with the SMA toddler milk. The box came filled with generous samples and coupons for friends. The milk had a pleasing smell and consistency. I had a little sip before i gave it my daughter and to my suprise it was good balance of sweet and creamy. My daughter tried it and loved it. She has asked for this milk every dinner time. I'm actually quite thrilled with how it's made her drink more milk, as previous to this, she wasn't a huge fan. It's a thumbs up from us!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Bmackay7 from Peace of mind My toddler is going through the typical “will not eat ANYTHING” stage at the moment and I was really worried about the lack of nutrients he was getting (I don’t think his daily intake of 3 grains of cheese was suffice”.. toddler milk to the rescue!! Luckily my boy will drink milk until it’s coming out of his ears so these were my life savers. Gave me huge peace of mind to know he was getting some form of goodness! The handy pack and take cartons were great too, always at hand when out and about and no need to worry about trying to keep cows milk chilled in my changing bag!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Tracyannw from Loved by my toddler & convenient to take out. I had never tried toddler milks but was given the opportunity to trial this product. As soon as my 2YO saw it he was eager to have a sip. He feels he is a big boy getting to drink out of a carton. It has definitely passed the taste test for my boy. It is also a convenient size and doesn't have to be kept in the fridge so you can take it out for a drink on the go. The best bit is that its full of extra goodness and has encouraged my boy to drink more milk. The only negative i have is the price - albeit it is not a comparable product to cows milk that was the alternative we were using and the price difference is large. I would however recommend this product and will be looking out for it on deals at our local shops.
