banana splits....for breakfast!

For Christmas, Reid received a subscription to "High Five" magazine (a younger version of "Highlights"). We have really enjoyed the stories and crafts from it. This morning, Reid and I made healthy Banana Splits for breakfast. Here's the recipe if you'd like to try with your kiddies...

**Banana Split Breakfast
Yogurt (we used plain, sweetened with cinnamon and maple syrup)
frozen berries
ripe banana
granola (or other cereal)


-the night before, freeze the yogurt
-In the am, take out the yogurt and berries and set on the counter for 15-20 min. Let your child set the timer and listen for it.
-With a butter knife, help your child cut the bananas and put them in the bowls
-When ready, scoop the yogurt onto the bananas.
-Let your child scoop the berries and granola on top.

Enjoy!
