Have a picky eater in your home? Just looking to make healthier choices as a family?
You'll definitely want to check out the fun new cooking show from Super Sprowtz; Super Sprowtz RAW!
Super Sprowtz is teaching kids the importance of making healthy food choices and how different foods help to fuel our body (i.e. Colby Carrots super power is "Super Sight"). They are also helping children and their families put that new knowledge into action, by introducing healthy recipes in each episode of their new cooking series; Super Sprowtz: RAW.
I sat down to watch the first episode with my kids and they were definitely engaged, as was I! I love how difficult concepts and advanced vocabulary is broken down for young audience members. In my opinion, incorporating children into the farm/garden/store-to-table process is a crucial element in developing life-long healthy nutritional choices.
In episode 1, Roger and the Super Sprowtz head to a farm (in Upstate New York) to gather the vegetables for their vegetable casserole. Zack Zucchini gives Roger some facts and tips on Zucchini picking, then Todd the Tomato calls Roger. Todd rattles off a long winded explanation on phytonutrients and Lycopene. Then Roger "chops it up into bite size pieces" for young viewers to better understand. Simply stating - Lycopene protects your stomach, "like a shield from germs".
Overall, Super Sprowtz: RAW is sending kids a valuable message, using a highly relatable platform. The message? EAT YOUR SUPERPOWERS! Want to be "super-strong" well then, eat your (Brian) Broccoli! Want to be "Super Smart"? (Erica) Eggplant is the way to go!
We are loving the concept of Super Sprowtz: RAW. The episodes are the perfect length for young viewers too; the first episode is just over 9 minutes long.
We can't wait to tune in next Thursday to catch the rest of the recipe for veggie casserole, with special celebrity guest, Chef Sam Talbot!
Check out the first episode of Super Sprowtz RAW - "Into The Fridge" below.
