- Adult secures the lid and blends until completely smooth, checking for unblended pieces before pouring.
- Pour a small serving into a cup and enjoy seated together. Cover and refrigerate any remaining smoothie promptly.
For ages 3 and up with an adult. Milk contains dairy; check ingredients for allergies and suitability. Wash hands and fruit. Adult operates and cleans the blender and supervises seated drinking.
