Healthy Fruit Breakfast Smoothies For Kids

Sharing is caring!

We are a smoothie household, my kids are go, go, go, kids, particularly my eldest.

Sometimes getting them to sit long enough to have a full breakfast can be tough, so I love serving these Healthy Breakfast Smoothies they are fast to drink and packed full of wholesome nutrition.

 

 

I like to make sure I include healthy fats and grains in my kids' smoothies as well as fruit. It keeps them fuller for longer and is just generally great for growing bodies.

The Macro range from Countdown ticks all the boxes for this, the range is healthy, wholesome and simple. Not to forget that a huge part of the range is on Price Lockdown at Countdown Supermarkets as well.

When it comes to the liquids used in these smoothies, you can totally mix and match the milk used to make the smoothies dairy free or to just to match your particular taste preferences.

These smoothies are all fruit based, if you are looking to add some veggies into your child's smoothie then don't forget my earlier post  Fruit and Veggie Smoothies For Kids there are 4 smoothie ideas all of which sneak in some vegetables as well.

A big thank you needs to go to Countdown NZ and their Macro range for making this post possible. I hope you enjoy these 4 breakfast smoothie ideas for you and your kids!
