Getting kids excited about smoothies is as easy as 1, 2, 3 with these sweet tips. 

1. Make It Familiar

The first tip for a kid-friendly smoothie experience is to make it friendly and familiar for those little ones with big preferences. Use ingredients that your kids already love. Whether they’re drawn to juicy strawberries, creamy bananas, or crunchy carrots, let their favorite flavors shine in the smoothies you create for them. If they already have go-to fruits and veggies, blend up their favorites and let them dig in. 

2. Make It Sweet

There’s no reason for a smoothie to be bland! You can add sweetness for kids in a number of ways! Maybe you transform your smoothie into a blended, blissful treat with vanilla-flavored yogurt as a creamy base, honey drizzle as a gooey final touch, or just bulk it up with nature’s candy using fruits from berries to mangos! If you’re feeling more adventurous, you can also amp it up with cocoa powder, chocolate chips, or a swirl of peanut butter. 

3. Make It A Treat

Let smoothie time be a celebration every time. While it’s wonderful to share the healthy aspect of smoothies with kids, be careful not to make smoothies sound like just blended-up vegetables. Embrace the chemistry of smoothie making with your mini mixologists, making smoothies fun for kids to create and eat! Explore the vibrant colors, playful textures, and exciting combinations that make each blend a unique masterpiece, all while celebrating smoothies as a sweet, refreshing treat!

Now that you have these 3 secrets to make amazing smoothies for kids, go turn up that blender! And enjoy!
