Tips for Parents

Use a frozen banana for a creamier, thicker consistency without needing ice.
Serve in a small open cup or straw cup to support cup-drinking skills development.
Keep portions modest — about ½ to 1 cup is appropriate for toddlers.
Boost nutrition by adding a teaspoon of nut butter or chia seeds for extra protein and healthy fats.
Leftover smoothie can be frozen into popsicle moulds for a healthy treat.
Let your toddler help pour ingredients to build interest and encourage independent eating habits.
