At Jamba ready to try some new flavors. Its the summer but my son would only leave the house if I let him wear these pants. Anything to get him out the front door right!

I have loved Jamba Juice drinks for the last 15 years! They are a great way to cool off in the CA summers and to get your fruits and veggies in a tasty way. When they come out with new flavors I love to try them. My son of course wants to be like his Mama and he always gets a kids Jamba when we go. I was a picky eater as a kid and my son has developed the same habit. I eat all sorts of fruits and veggies now and he sees that but he still says no way or thats gross. As a kid who said the same things I know how he feels and know I need to sneak in the veggies. A perfect and fun way to sneak in veggies is by serving juice.

Anyone who loves Jamba has a favorite flavor, mine is Aloha Pineapple. This trip to Jamba Juice we planned to try two new flavors. One for me and one for my son.

I tried the New Tropical Harvest Smoothie and loved it! It contains the orange veggies I dont seem to get enough of, sweet potatoes, carrots and butternut squash. It tasted great with the mango and peach in it to balance the veggies.  My son gulped his down and got a little bit of brain freeze lol. Poor kid was saying how yummy it was then grabbed his head. He caught on that he needed to drink it slower but I saw that as a sign he really did like it. I love that there is beets and kale in it, no way could I get him to eat that at dinner time.

We will be back for these flavors again soon. I tried my son's drink and it was great, he liked mine too. I like to be able to order him kid size and kid tailored drinks for him when we go out.

Info on the new flavors:

The new Tropical Harvest™ Smoothie is made with a fusion of mangos, peaches, and passion mango juice blended with juices from butternut squash, sweet potato, and carrot. With only 230 calories, this beverage is
free of dairy and gluten—plus, it’s an excellent source of Vitamins A and C.


The Jamba Kids™ Berry Beet It!™ Smoothie is made with a delicious blend of strawberries, mangos, bananas, and mixed berry juice with carrots, beets, broccoli, spinach, kale, and lettuce. With only 190 calories, this beverage is free of dairy and gluten—plus, it’s an excellent source of Vitamins A, C, B6 and fiber.

We saw some cute kids cups in our Jamba store and a sign about becoming a Jamba Insider. I love to get deals and coupons so I will sign up and see what deals we can get.

There are new items I had not noticed in this store too, we often go to the mall Jamba and they do not have all the items this store location has. The Make it a Meal pack is a great idea for a grab and go summer lunch.

You can learn more about Jamba Juice on Facebook and the Moms Meet Blogger Program online.

Imagination Fun at the Sacramento Discovery Museum

We have an annual pass to the Sacramento Discovery Museum that I won from a local Sacramento Magazine. I had no clue what to expect from the museum. I have read its small but a fun interactive place for the kids. We went on Mother's Day to have a day of imagination play and discovery. They had many areas for the kids to play in. A whole kitchen area where kids can dress up as a chef and play with all the pretend play food in the kid size wooden fridge and stoves. My son had a great time pretending to make us all dinner.

His favorite part of the museum is the Space Discovery area. He enjoys the stars and the moon. I read him many books about space and the planets so this place was like his books coming alive, I loved that. We played with a toy that is very familiar to us, my son has one of the space toys the museum has that he loves.

The coolest part was the play room that looked just like a spaceship cockpit. There were buttons to push, computer parts to mess with and steering wheels to drive the spaceship into outer space. He loved putting on the astronaut helmet to pretend to be a space man as he called it. There were even space suits to put on. Many other kids were wearing them but there were not enough for my son to wear one too so he just wore the helmet. The hardest part was getting my son to get out of the space ship and out of his imagination mode of he was an astronaut, not really a bad thing though :)

This museum is more of a kids play zone, there is learning of course through play, the best way to learn. I think the museum part made me not understand what this place was. We had fun and even saw an live animal show with a tiny owl. We will be going back again soon to have a day of imaginary fun.

How do you encourage your children's imagination?
