First gather a few things:
2 cups fresh strawberries (or 1 unfrozen package)
bananas (1 cup sliced bananas)
wheat germ (optional)
milk
butter knife
potato masher
eggbeater or blender
bowl
Use the potato masher to crush the strawberries. With a butter knife, cut bananas into slices -- enough to fill one cup. With an eggbeater or blender, combine the strawberries and bananas, adding 1/2 cup of wheat germ (optional) and 1 cup of milk, a little at a time.

 | What a fun way to eat fruit! And what a useful way for your child to use some pentup energy -- by mashing strawberries. You might also find that your child is more open to tasting something new when he or she has been involved in making that healthy snack. |
