This Giveaway is Now Closed
I’ve been following Super Healthy Kids for some time now. Amy and Natalie just keep the healthy meal ideas coming. When I found out Amy was coming out with a book, I was all over it. She kindly sent me a complementary book to review and give away!
201 Healthy Smoothies & Juices for Kids: Fresh, Wholesome, No-Sugar-Added Drinks Your Child Will Love comes at good time for me. We’ve been making smoothies for a while now and are admittedly in a rut. It’s also summer and the perfect time to experiment with smoothies and fresh juices.
The book is chock-full of recipes for kids smoothies and juices with a huge variety of fruits and vegetables. And they are really good. I only have a regular blender which works fine for most of the recipes, but some call for a high-powered blender. Also, the juice recipes require a juicer, which I don’t have (yet).
I like smoothies because they are a totally different (and tasty) way for children to experience fresh produce. It’s also nice to whip one up with produce that is looking kind of sickly but is still good to eat. Don’t sneak in the good stuff without your child knowing though. Have them help you make it so they are aware of the healthy items that go into it!
I had Big A help me and she gives a thumbs up or down for the final results. We have some good ones she likes, a couple for me and even one for Little D. He’s not big on “fruit sweet” but was all over the Banana Split Smoothie which has cocoa.
Mango Madness was one of our favorites:
Makes 4, 1 cup servings:
1/2 cup dandelion greens
1/2 cup romaine lettuce
2 mangoes, peeled and pit removed
1 banana peeled
a handful of ice or choose a frozen banana (optional but makes it more slushy)
1/2 cup water
Directions: add the first 5 ingredients and 1/4 cup water in a blender for about 30 seconds pushing food into blades if necessary. Add the remaining 1/4 cup water until it reaches the desired consistency.
In addition to the recipes, there are plenty of tips and fun facts about nutrition throughout the book. Overall, this a must-have book for parents wanting to experiment with kids smoothies and juices.

Thank you so much! Love your information!
We got a vitamix not long ago and have been looking for ideas for smoothies and things that the kids will enjoy. This would be wonderful. I will have to get a book.
Thanks!!
I have 2 girls and have been trying different smoothies with them as the oldest does not like vegetables. This would be very helpful.
I would love to win! My girls love smoothies but I’m running out of recipes

My one year old is living off smoothies lately! I was fortunate enough to be able to breast feed her w/o supplementation until this point. When we both were ready for weaning she did good for about 3 days and the suddently went, and still is, on a total drinking strike!! She laughs and bats away any sippee or straw or cup offered to her (milk, water, juice, breast milk, etc). The only thing I can be sure of is smoothies, so, a variety of recipe suggestions would be amazing!
Thanks again!

We make green smoothies everyday with our Vitamix! Would love to have some more recipes that my 6 and 9 year olds would like. Thanks!
I would love to win this. I have a picky eater and am pregnant with a 2nd and would love to see if my picky eater would enjoy these recipes. I have tried so many cookbooks with no luck on things that she will eat.
I would love to win a copy of this book because I love making smoothies with my kids. I also teach healthy eating to their elementary school, and smoothies are an easy treat for big classes.

I would absolutely enjoy having this book of recipes for my 2 year old daughter and even my friends kids. My family is vegetarian, but my daughter is a picky eater and will only eat carrots as a vegetable. I have tried to juice veggies to get her to get some nutrients from them, but she will never drink them. It would be wonderful to finally find something she likes and is healthy. I might add that my husband and I would definetly use these recipes for ourselfs as well 🙂
I’d love to try the recipes and share it with others!

This book sounds wonderful! Over the past few months, my kids and I have been experimenting with fruit smoothies. I would live to have this cookbook to have recipes that add veggies too that my kids will actually drink! I just received a free Omega juicer from a Dr. Oz sweepstakes so I’d love some juice recipes too! Thanks for the giveaway!!!
Would love to win this book for some more creative ideas on incorporating fruits and veggies in smoothies!

I’d love to win this book – my daughter & her husband are so organic and healthy with all of Ellie’s food – but I’m at a quandry – I am not so much – this will help me find smoothies for when she visits her Gramma and it will allow me to give her “gramma treats” that are not only good for her, but mommy & daddy approved!

I would LOVE to win this book. We recently bought a high powered blender, and have been making smoothies every day. My kids are wanting to branch out from the typical spinach/berry smoothie I have been making and this would be a GREAT place to start! I have been reading her blog for a long time, and love all she offers, so i know her smoothies recipes will be great!
My daughter loves smoothies, so this would provide us with some variety!
My son is low on weight, but he loves fruit. I’m hoping there might be some recipes with some protein added in that I can “sneak” to him. Thanks for the giveaway!!
I have a three year old boy and a four year old daughter. The three year old will eat anything in a smoothie and doesn’t even ask what it is before he drinks it all up. My daughter on the other hand is more apprehensive. I would love to win this book for more ideas and hopefully get her in the same mind frame as the boy! Thanks for the chance!

I have five kids who are not very good breakfast eaters including one who is a diabetic. The one thing they will have for breakfast is a smoothie.
I am always looking for more healthy snacks for my daughter. This would be a great help in that respect.
Dandelion greens in a smoothie! I’ve got to read this book.

I want to win because I *want* to love smoothies, but I just haven’t found the right recipe yet – I bet this book has it!
After 4 1/2 years of presenting smoothies to my 5 1/2 year old daughter, she has finally decided she likes them. Yee haw!!! In 10 days she will have her tonsils out and during her recovery I would LOVE to use your recipe book to keep her nourished while on liquids for a few days. Thanks for your creation and sharing your passion.
My 4 year old son does not eat vegetables, but he does like smoothes. I’d love to find ways to make even healthier smoothies for him, and for me too!
I am currently in a dietetic internship and would like to open a private practice in the future that focuses on pediatric nutrition. This book would be a great one to have in my office for kids’ parents to look through.

I am a pediatric registered dietitian, and I would love this book to help all the little kiddos that I work with! Not only do I work in school nutrition, but I also speak with parents and families at various pediatric practices for developmentally delayed and/or picky eating children who are at a nutritional risk. Parents are always asking how to get their kids to enjoy more fruits & veggies!
I have referred several moms to your website- love it!
I’m just getting my family started on the “Real Food” path – this would be a great way to show them how real food can taste great!
I have a five year old who is a picky eater and a two year old that is fast following in her footsteps. Would live anything ghat gives new and tasty ways to get kids to eat…plus I love winning things…lol. All jokes aside…thanks so much for your site. It is wonderful!

I operate a small family child care out of my home and love to make smoothies for the kids on a hot afternoon or at the beach. I usually jus make modified versions of ones i make for myselfo but would love more options–especially including veggies!

I have been researching and working on eating clean for three weeks now and I want to be able to provide my 2 year old son with the best possible food! I would love this book because we all know 2 year olds are pretty picky! :0)

My kids constantly ask for me to make them a smoothie when I make my protein smoothies (I cannot share my protein as it’s too much for their little bodies to handle). This would provide me with the recipes that i need to create them smoothies 🙂

I’m also a follower of Super Healthy Kids in addition to your blog – we Amys have to stick together! – and I would love to win this book because while my daughter and I love smoothies, I’m not that creative when it comes to combos. Blueberries and spinach is our usual. Some additional inspiration would be great!

I would love a copy of this book to climb out of our smoothie rut and mainly because my youngest has texture issues with food, but if the challenging food (like spinach) is blended in a smoothie…he gobbles it down! I love sending the kids off to school with a smoothie for breakfast and would love some inspiration for new ideas.
