I was sitting in my classroom taking a sip of my smoothie when one of the children asked what I was drinking. I told him it was a smoothie and he asked, "May I try it?" I went and got a spoon and let him have a taste. Next thing you know, three other children came over and asked to taste it. So, I got more spoons and let several of the kids have a taste. The first child said it was delicious and asked for more. Another asked, "What's in it?" I told him it had a banana, spinach, peanut butter, flax seeds, cinnamon and ice. They all asked if we could make some for snack. Well, yes. Yes we can! Gotta love when the kids ask for (and want more of) a healthy recipe. Yummy and good for you. Perfect lesson in my book...
