  13. My own girls and the children I look after all LOVE smoothies! Such an easy, healthy way to get their fruit and dairy servings in. I just throw some yogurt, a frozen fruit and any juice on hand into the blender, give it a swirl. For a special treat, we throw a touch of chocolate in with our bananas!
