Just a quick reply on this matter of feeding your little children - there are many great books out there on the subject. I like the book "The Raw Food Detox Diet" by Natalie Rose. (of course not my only favorite but start with one) She has a section on tots and teens and explains that the goal is not to make a young raw foodist of your children. And it's not important that they combine their food perfectly. The goal is to simply start upgrading the quality of the food that you keep at home. If you provide healthy choices - that's all they get - it's as simple as that and their bodies will naturally want the "natural" food. If you can check out the book at the library and read what N. Rose says about it - it will give you a lot of ideas how to start slowly and make the changes fun for everyone involved. It is great that you are already starting them on smoothies. That is the perfect start. You may already have all the right answers but just don't know it yet.
Reading what others have done might give you ideas you might not think of. Pick and choose what works for you! And for sure...have fun with it! Good luck. Judy in Phx
