Today we’re celebrating episode 10 of Fun With Food! We’re learning how to make a smoothie while learning about the letter S sound, counting, colors, health benefits of a spinach and I wonder what is in the big cooking pot this time?!⁠

If you’re looking for learning videos for kids that are quality, wholesome and fun I recommend watching our new show, Fun With Food! Fun With Food is an Educational Cooking Show for Kids. In each episode, we make a recipe or go on a food adventure while learning about letters, numbers, colors, shapes, nutrition, feelings and more. Fun with Food is created and hosted by Megan Roosevelt, Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and mom of 2.

In our smoothie today we’re adding a handful of nourishing and delicious ingredients such as banana, spinach, mango, almond butter and almond milk! Let’s learn about the health benefits of two of these foods below!

Health Benefits of Bananas

Bananas contain potassium which supports heart health and muscle function. Bananas are also rich in fiber which is important for digestive health.

Health Benefits of Spinach

Iron carries oxygen in the blood within our body which is really important to support our brain and muscle function and to give us energy!

A smoothie is made in a blender! Blenders have a sharp blade that turns solid foods into smaller pieces. Pieces so small that it can even become a smooth creamy smoothie! Because blenders have a sharp blade they can be dangerous, so it’s always best to ask a grown up to use a blender to help you make a recipe!

Green Smoothies!

This smoothie turned the color green because of the spinach! Spinach contains an important nutrient called Iron. Iron carries oxygen in the blood within our body which is really important to support our brain and muscle function and to give us energy! Isn’t it amazing that different foods help our body be so healthy and do all the things we need to do in a day like run, jump, play, sing and dance! Here are some other foods that contain Iron!
