When it’s your turn to bring snacks to a classroom party or a youth sports event… you may end up looking for something you can grab in a hurry. I’m here to tell you that doesn’t have to be an unhealthy grab!
Here are 4 healthy snack ideas that provide energy and nutrients for growth and development:
- Frozen grapes
- Low-fat string cheese
- mini pretzels
- and Ants on a log which is Celery topped with creamy peanut butter and raisins
Healthy snacks help teach our kids that nutrition is important throughout the day – all the time. It’s worth reminding ourselves as well. Take the opportunity often to reinforce the message that healthy eating and good nutrition plus lots of physical activity are cornerstones of Healthy Living!
