Water makes up about 60% of the body and is needed for every single organ to function properly. Water also helps prevent dehydration and regulates your body temperature, which is so important during the hot summer months! ☀️Staying hydrated is especially important for little ones and those who are breastfeeding!

🎒🍎 Back-to-School Lunch Tips! 🥪

A new school year means busy mornings and packed lunches! Here are a few simple tips to make lunch prep easier for families:

✨ Keep it balanced: Include a fruit or veggie, whole grain, protein, and dairy or dairy alternative when possible.

🌈 Add variety: Offer different colors, flavors, and textures to keep lunches fun and interesting.

👧🏽 Let kids help: Give children choices and involve them in packing their lunch.

❄️ Keep food safe: Use an insulated lunch bag with an ice pack to keep perishable foods cold.

💡 Plan ahead: Prep fruits, veggies, and other lunch items the night before to make busy mornings easier.

Here’s to a happy, healthy, and delicious school year! 📚💛
