Mouse Mommy Treats

Recently we are having hot weather, MR and baby MH requested to have ice-blended drinks. In Malaysia’s intense tropical heat, cold drinks are always in demand. From a young age, our children have enjoyed the cool relief that an iced drink offers on the hottest days. While they typically consume chilled cordial drinks or mass-produced juices, there are concerns about the sugar content of these drinks, with nutritionists recommending that children reduce consumption of such sweetened drinks[1].

Mouse mommy got a new blender helper - Philips Viva Collection Blender that comes with Duravita Tritan Jar that 20x stronger, not easily break off. Cool! That is my concern eventually whenever MR and baby MH eager to be my little kitchen helpers. My kids love to touch, explore, curious and experience together to see how the things works! Headache ya sometimes….

The first impression that mouse mommy loves this Philips Viva Collection Blender with Duravita Tristan Jar is the suction cup at the base of the blender, it is strong and able to keep the blender stay still on the table. Mouse mommy was feeling safe to allow my kids to operate on the blender itself.

Besides that, this blender is also easy to operate and easy to clean up. There are a control knob that in pulse setting mode for ice crushing and speed setting from minimum to maximum. User-friendly and child-friendly too!

The Duravita Tristan Jar is large with 1250mls capacity with 20x stronger the Tristan jar material that allows mouse mommy worried-free when my kids are handling the blender. Eventually mouse mommy was quite reluctant to allow MR and baby MH to “help out” in blending works, as in experience before that my kids accidentally drop their water bottles and blender jar, as a result break off and unable to use anymore, got to fork out money to buy a new one. Sad… sad…

This round, mouse mommy was happy to let MR and baby MH to be the little Chefs to make their ice-blended drinks. MR love orange and wanted to make orange milk smoothies. Baby MH loves apple. Hahaha… my little baby cannot wait for his turn and start chewing on the apple itself.

Mouse mommy always allows kids to Learn Life Today. Explore, experiment and experience life together to allow children can learn how things works and the science behind it.

MR was helping to peeling off the orange skin before putting in to the blender jar. This is able to train the children motor function. While peeling off the orange skin, MR also told mouse mommy that the orange aroma smells good. He was wanted to blend two units of orange with ice, milk and honey.

First of all, MR and baby MH putting in ice cubes, honey and milk, use pulse setting mode for ice crushing. The ice blending required adequate fluid in order to works well. Do not put too much of water too, as in the outcome will be too watery.

Once the ice cubes turn to small in size, MR is putting in the orange to blend it together. Recommended to peel the orange and section by hand before put into blender jar for easy blending.

Baby MH was busy to help to blend the orange milk smoothies. He is enjoying the blending session with brother MR.

After orange milk smoothies done, they are quickly go and get their favourite The Bare Bear cup to fill up with their yummy smoothies! OMG! MR and baby MH were enjoying the orange milk smoothies that done by them. Finished!

We love the texture and the taste of the orange milk smoothie. It is smooth and all the ice cubes are fully blended. Yummy, healthy and nutritious fruit smoothies drink that we can make it on our own! Last but not least, boys, you got to help in cleaning too. MR and baby MH also help to clean up the table. Good boys!

Mouse mommy also a working mom and understand that food preparation for our baby is not an easy task. The earlier that our kids explore to more foods, vegetables and fruits with different texture and taste.
