Hello there, my little foodies! As a children’s dietitian, I know how important it is to get you involved in the kitchen. Not only does it help you learn about healthy food choices, but it also encourages you to try new foods and develop your cooking skills. So, today I want to share with you a fun recipe that you can make with your parents – fruit kebabs!
Fruit kebabs are a delicious and healthy snack that you can enjoy at any time of the day. They are also very easy to make and require just a few ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients:
- A selection of your favourite fruits (such as strawberries, blueberries, grapes, kiwi, pineapple, and melon)
- Wooden skewers
Instructions:
- Wash all the fruits thoroughly and dry them with a paper towel.
- Cut the fruits into bite-sized pieces.
- Let your little ones help you to thread the fruit pieces onto the wooden skewers in any pattern they like.
- Enjoy your delicious fruit kebabs!
Making fruit kebabs with your kids is a great way to spend quality time together while also teaching them important life skills. Not only will they learn about healthy food choices, but they will also develop their fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.
Plus, it’s a fun and creative activity that they will love! You can encourage them to come up with their own fruit combinations and patterns, making each kebab unique and special.
Remember, as a children’s dietitian, I always recommend that you eat a variety of fruits and vegetables every day. Fruit kebabs are a great way to do this, as they make eating fruit fun and exciting for kids. So, why not give them a try and let me know what you think?
I hope you enjoy making and eating these delicious fruit kebabs, and I’ll be back soon with more fun and healthy recipes for you to try at home. Until then, keep cooking and exploring new foods!
