Strawberries!!

You have probably seen strawberres at the supermarket and at the local farmer's market. Strawberries are in season right now which makes them priced cheaply and at most supermarkets. Strawberries are full of Vitamin C, B Vitamins, and many minerals.  They are an excellent snack and most children love their sweet taste especially when they are in season and nice and ripe.  You can add strawberries to a salad to give it a sweet taste or put it in a smoothie. Also for a fun family activity you could go to one of the pick your own strawberries in the area.
