3 Products to Help Introduce Your Baby and Toddler to Real Food

It's no secret that good nutrition starts from the very beginning. Many moms take a good look at their own health habits upon learning about their pregnancy and even take steps to improve their well being for the health of their baby. But often times after baby is born, moms go back to their pre-pregnancy habits for themselves and for baby. It’s often unintentional but more due to lack of time or lack of understanding what to feed, and sometimes dealing with “picky” eaters.
Understanding how to rid your child's life of processed food is just as important as ridding your life from processed food. And it actually could be more important. Keeping in mind the idea of little organs growing and maturing, and it's a wonder that the idea of helping your child maintain a "real food" diet isn't one of the most important things to parents.
To help mothers and fathers (whether you are expecting or you have a 2 year-old and whether your child might be labeled a "great" eater or even a "picky" eater), I'm excited to introduce three products/resources from our sponsors, including a great video, that can make it that much easier to rid the processed foods from your child's diet.

Make Ahead Smoothies (2 Ways)
Sure throwing a few ingredients in a blender to make a smoothie doesn't take long, but on a busy weekday morning we all know...every minute counts! And after trying out this make ahead method of bagging (or bottling) up smoothie ingredients myself, I can attest that it really does make a difference.
Even in the afternoons when the girls get home from school, I might not always be into the idea of getting out all the different ingredients to make a smoothie, but if the fruits and veggies were already packaged up in the exact right proportions? Sure, we can have a smoothie snack any day! It's amazing how sometimes a little advance preparation can go a long way.
