I am a believer in letting children help. The mess is unbelievable, the extra time ridiculous, the stress high, the memories -- PRICELESS! So thus begins our smoothie ritual with more help than I can almost handle, more laughs than imaginable!
I lay out our 5 ingredients: bananas (3) , PB, chocolate syrup, organic milk, 1/2 a blender of crushed ice!
Munchkins wash their hands
Gabe peels and puts in one banana!

I snap a picture while they are occupied on banana duty! LOVE THEM!
Gabe was chosen to be the milk pourer. (he always is, go figure! :) )
Grant is on chocolate duty.
Gavin works on getting the peanut butter in!
READY TO BLEND!
AND THAT'S HOW WE ROLL AT THE COWARTS!

Something sounds awfully familiar here......
OH YEAH! We use your brilliant smoothie idea! We love it, and I like the protein from the organic PB, plus the healthy milk and bananas. I am still thinking about trying carob chips in it to see how it tastes, but then again, we eat pretty healthy 99% of the time, so I might not even mess with a good thing!
