Throughout summer break some kids take a "break" from making the healthiest choices when it comes to what they eat, drink and do for physical activity. As a reminder to stay moving and make healthy choices the Blender Bike when on a road tour. The Blender Bike toured this summer to 9 different summer camp groups and made learning about healthy drink choices more fun!  

The Blender Bike is a fun and interactive teaching tool that almost 350 kids got to utilize to peddle their way to a real fruit slush. The blender will only work through the physical effort of peddling. The "How Much Sugar is in Your Drink" lesson was taught  at the beginning of each camp. The kids (and some adults) then peddled their way to a freshly blended fruit slush. The kids said after riding the stationary bicycle it made them want to go home and ride their own bicycle. 

43% of the kids reported riding their bike more after riding on the blender bike

78% of the kids liked the blender bike fruit slush and 19% of the kids had made one at home in the past week

12% of the kids had started to choose water instead of some of the sugary drinks they normally consume
