AFTER SCHOOL

 
Many days after school my kids need to get rid of some ENERGY.  (I know I can't sit for 7 hours!)  Sometimes I tell them to go run around the house 5-10 times.  Another great way to get your kids to move and you also is to have a jump rope contest.  See how many times you can jump rope without stopping or how many jumps you can get in 1 minute. 



Then it's always fun to make a snack together.  Below is a recipe I found at Kids Eat Smart Foundation and LOVE the idea.  All ages can help and it's HEALTHY!

 
Watermelon Pizza 
 
Ingredients
    • Watermelon
    • Strawberry Jam
    • Slices of banana, kiwi and strawberries
    • Other berries (blueberries, raspberries and blackberries)
    • Shredded coconut (optional)
 
Slice watermelon into thick pizza shaped slices. Add a very thin layer of strawberry jam to the watermelon so that the fruit will stick. Add slices of banana, kiwi and strawberries. Add the other berries to the top of the watermelon slices. Sprinkle with some shredded coconut (optional). Please keep any allergies in mind.
