Raise your hands if you\u2019re absolutely STOKED about this season\u2019s beautiful weather! I\u2019m sitting here, flailing my arms because I am thrilled with the amount of sun we\u2019ve been getting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our little family is absolutely ready for this year\u2019s summer season. We set up an inflatable pool (that my son adores!). We\u2019ve been taking daily walks and creating pieces of sidewalk chalk art on our driveway. For our family, summer is all about spending time outside, splashing around, and indulging in yummy (and healthy!) kid-friendly snacks. Check out some of the snacks we\u2019ve been munching on lately (<\/strong>psst: some of them use Evive smoothie<\/a> <\/strong>blends, so be sure to use the code FABULOUSHABITS15 for $15 off your next box!<\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is one of my simplest mom hacks – but super effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rather than going for processed, sugar-filled popsicles and freeze pops, I wash and freeze fresh fruit for many of our afternoon snacks. It\u2019s a quick solution that our family loves. On a hot summer day, nothing is more refreshing than a bowl full of yummy frozen fruits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Trail mixes really take me back to my childhood. When I was a Brownie (ie.: Girl Guide), we used to make our own trail mixes for nature walks. The experience always stuck with me and now, I do the same for my son.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I suggest building a \u201cTrail Mix Buffet\u201d for you and your little ones! Set up your kitchen counter with bowls of nuts, granola, raisins, shredded coconut, etc. You can then ask everyone to scoop their own servings so that they can create a personalized trail mix!<\/p>\n\n\n\n What\u2019s summer without indulging in a delicious banana split? Some of my fondest memories are going to the local ice cream shop with my parents and sharing a huge banana split with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today, I\u2019ve got a delicious recipe for a healthy, homemade banana split – and it uses Evive smoothies<\/a><\/strong>! How cool is that?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n You\u2019ll need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n1) Frozen Fruit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
2) Trail Mix Buffet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
3) Banana Split with Evive Nice Cream<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
