Have fun with Infused Water!
 
As temperatures rise and kids get out of school for summer, staying hydrated becomes more important than ever! Drinking water can get boring and monotonous, but there is a way to refresh your typical drinking water. Using fruit and herbs in water increases taste with natural flavors, infuses some nutrients in, and can quench thirst. Making a large pitcher of water with different flavors and getting inventive with your fruit and herb mixtures can keep a family hydrated all day! Most people tend to think of lemon water, but there are so many different options to explore! Try any of these recipes and then get creative, seeing which ones you can mix and match. It can be a fun family activity that the kids will love too!

How far apart should we eat?
 
Getting home from a long day and realizing you haven't eaten for an extended period can result in over tiredness and an insatiable appetite. Most experts suggest eating every 3-5 hours to keep glucose levels stable while fueling your body properly. You will need to plan ahead to accomplish this, but learning your body is the first step. Hunger cues come in many forms from a rumbling stomach to a headache. Listening to your body can help you determine general mealtimes you function best around. Knowing these times can help you anticipate when you’ll need to pack a snack or stop for lunch. Having items on hand to snack or prep a meal is key. When eating away from home, invest in a good lunch box and cool pack. It can make packing easier and help when you need to keep refrigerated items cold.

Sunflower Seed Butter
 
There is a good chance your grocery store will have a large, dedicated section just for nut butters and their alternatives. Peanut Butter, which contains one of the top nine allergens in the U.S., is used in various kid-friendly snacks as a satisfying and tasty way to get daily protein. Sunflower seed butter is a nut butter alternative that isn't exactly new on the scene, but seems to be gaining traction as of late. Sunbutter brand is GF, free of the top nine major food allergens, Non-GMO certified, and tasty! One serving of Sunbutter provides 7g of protein and more vitamins and minerals than the majority of alternative nut butters. There are also now different flavors of Sunbutter out on the market such as chocolate! Sunflower seed butter can be an incredible alternative to try the next time you want something to dip pretzels or apples in, or when you make a PB&J.
