Some Easy Drink Recipes for Kids

Happy Labor Day everyone! Whether you are grilling, or just chillin', I have some great drink options for the kiddos today. Don't get me wrong, the adults can enjoy too! I have a recipe for a blueberry smoothie, that has blueberries, bananas and yogurt. Also in the article are recipes for a tropical smoothie, a cran-orange chiller, and a strawberry smoothie.

There are many ways in which to enjoy being healthy, and making a round of delicious, fruity drinks for the family can be one. Berries are full of antioxidants, so add as much as your taste buds like! Bananas are high in potassium, and low-fat yogurt is a great source of protein. Make them all organic and you up the health ante even more.

Come back soon, when I post some great high protein, toddler friendly smoothie recipes....including one for avocado melon....avocados are a super food, and are amazingly healthy!

Enjoy, and HAPPY LABOR DAY!!

Apple Cinnamon Water

I am always trying to find more ways to get more water.  I came across this on Pinterest, and I am so going to try this!!!

I think flavored water, NATURALLY flavored water is the way to go for kids too.  I do not give my kids juice, but you can better believe they can drink some water infused with apples and cinnamon!  I am so excited to try this out!!


 
  Think of the possibilities!  To top it all off, both apples and cinnamon are natural metabolism boosters.  So it can also increase the odds of weight loss!!  I cannot wait.  If it wasn't 10:00 PM, and I would be up all night, I would go make some now!  But tomorrow morning while my coffee is brewing you can bet your bottom dollar that I will be giving this one a try!!!
**EDITTED TO ADD**  Made it this morning, and it is DELICIOUS!!  All three kids love it too.  Yummo!!
