Well if your kids are anything like mine you know how hard it can be to get them to drink their milk. Even with all the Got Milk? campaigns over the years kids just sometimes hit the milk "wall". So what can you do to encourage them the next time they stare blankly at that white glass filled with liquid Vitamin D?Here are a few tips:
1. Start by just giving them milk as their only choice. Too many times we try to please our kids with a variety of choices. The end result is you have poured four different drinks and they consume none of them.
2. Add some chocolate or strawberry flavoring to their milk. Both are available in syrup and powder forms. You can also blend a few frozen strawberries and go the natural route.
3. Offer flavored drinking straws such as Quick Milk magic sipper straws. They come in 3 flavors: chocolate, strawberry and vanilla. Best of all there is no mess and you can bring them with you on the road so they are always available when that next tall glass of milk is presented to your little loved one.
