Helpful Hints:

Not only are the smoothies great tasting, but they are also packed with good nutrition. There’s lots of calcium, which helps build strong bones and teeth, and vitamin D, which helps us use calcium. The fruit provides vitamin C to keep our gums and blood vessels healthy. The milk, yogurt and peanut butter supply protein to help build and repair skin, muscle and blood.

Safety Tip:

Young children need supervision when using a blender. The blades are very sharp and could easily cut fingers. Help with assembly and clean-up. Make it a rule with kids that the lid is always on the blender while it is running. Turn it off when adding ingredients.
