Turn flavor choice into a five-minute family game. It beats debating at the checkout, and it gives kids a stake in what ends up in the pantry.

Set up the tasting

Lay out a few gummies of each flavor on separate plates. Strawberry, orange, cherry and green apple make a nice rainbow. Pour water and keep a napkin handy.

Smell, bite, score

Ask your child to smell first, then bite. Give each flavor a score from one to five and let them describe it in their own words. Kids love being the judge, and the funniest descriptions make good notes to keep.

What to look for

Notice sweetness, tartness, chew and how long the flavor lasts. Some kids prefer sharp green apple, others the familiar strawberry. The store page for Punchies kids protein gummies lists the flavors currently offered.

Pair it with real food

A gummy is a fun side to fruit and yogurt. Serve five as a serving and enjoy the rest of the snack plate. Related reading: After-practice snack ideas parents can prep in five minutes on kidsproteinfuel.com.
