Healthy Snacks for Kids – Part 2
Sophie has been eating SO much the last few weeks! She must be going through a growth spurt because it has been so much that I have been running out of ideas of what to give to her. So, I went to my best idea resource (Rachel!) who tapped in to her best team of resources (Mom Squad!) to help me out! They gave such great options that I wanted to share the list with you!
The Mom’s List of Favorite Healthy Snacks for Kids:
- Yogurt Drops – place yogurt in ziplock bag, snip off the corner and drop onto wax paper on a tray. Place in freezer to make a fun chip-like self-feeding snack!
- Peanut Butter or Butter on Healthy Bread
- Goldfish or Annie’s Cheese Bunnies
- Pirates Booty
- Pouches (with that fantastic anti leak top) or DIY pouches (disposable or reusable)
