Challenging

Challenging with kids, they get bored or tired of snacks. I am always looking for new ideas. They love blueberries but when they bored I need to transform them into something different. I had changed it to blueberry dipped in yogurt and frozen in the freezer. What can I do? How should I change it up? Being a mom, children love to give moms all these challenging tasks. We need to do what is impossible. And, sometimes just fix things right on the spot. Mom just needs to be super creative and do the impossible. Or, what I need to use to change it up. Do try mac & cheese snack bites.

If you like snacks, how about energy bites.

Or, maybe I should try something like kale chips.
