Family Vacations Reinvented! Are you planning another family vacation that’s heavy on sedentary activities?  Try switching gears- check out places that are both tranquil and encourage your family to stay active while on vacation! Instead of stuffy hotel rooms and unhealthy buffet dinners, consider these options: Take  your family camping in the great outdoors with picnics in the forest. Go on hikes as a family to teach your children about nature and how to preserve it. Go stargazing, kayaking, canoeing or fishing. See what local organizations or businesses are having events. This weekend, for example Bass Pro Shops is hosting their FREE Summer Kickoff Event, where they’ll teach kids how to have fun and stay safe in the great outdoors.  Go to Bass Pro Shops to find a store near you and get ready for a summer full of adventure! See what you can do for free!  Not only are outdoor vacations fun and exciting, they’re also much cheaper than amusement parks and resorts and sometimes cost nothing at all! Book your next family vacation at one of your local, state or national park and learn how to visit a park for free on June 9th for “Get Outdoors Day!” For foods to pack on your outdoor excursion, and how to keep them safe while camping, check outwww.Superkidsnutrition.com.

Flying Veggies -Making Food Fun Flying vegetables anyone? Have fun making food art with your kids and increase the likelihood of them eating more veggies. Let their imagination and appetite take flight with this twist on ants of a log -just add celery, carrot, bell pepper and fun! 1) Have kids help wash veggies. We keep a fruit and veggie scrub brush by the sink, it’s an easy task to scrub and gets kids involved. 2) Put nut butter along the inside of the celery. Then place passengers in the nut butter. Use raisins or craisins for the passengers. Don’t worry if kids get a little messy or a passenger or two falls over – just say he/she is sleeping. 3) Have your child help you cut the bell pepper for the airplane wings. Young children can use a plastic knife. Discuss the shape first or cut out an example for them to copy. 4)  Save the tinny tip of the carrot for the very front of the propeller. 5) Cut the carrots in circles (3) for the wheels and to for the circular shape behind the propellers. Cut 3 rectangle shapes for the propellers. 6)  Using tooth picks assemble the wheels and propeller. You can use nut butter to stick on the wings, but may need a tooth pick to reinforce them depending on the consistency of the nut butter.  *Be sure to purchase toothpicks that obviously stand out with color, like the toothpicks featured so little kids don’t eat them when eating their veggie airplane! 7) Take a picture of your flying veggies then eat your art!
