This is sort of a question for parents since most of us also have our own little ones. If you don't serve juice to the children how do you assure yourself that they are getting enough vitamin C? Since a glass of juice has a day's supply and if you water it down that is now only half a day's supply if that and if you don't serve juice at all then what. Since most toddlers won't eat an entire orange just how much broccoli or strawberries or other vitamin C sources do you have to try to get into them.
I am really noticing that my families that serve juice have kids that don't get colds as often and when they do seem to fend them off better. In the past I always served juice for morning snack that was half orange juice and half some other kind of juice just so I knew they had their daily vitamin C.
With winter coming on quickly I would like some suggestions to keep the kids as healthy as possible. Even now we are heading into another round of colds with at least a couple of them. For one child this will be her third since September - my poorest eater and sleeper I might add and both things we know are the best way to fend off illness.
