Healthy Fun Snacks
We all know that most children are grazers and prefer little and often with food. This doesn't make life any easier for parents who are constantly having to think about what to feed their children at the next mealtime let alone what to give the kids for snack time.
I'm not sure about you, but I honestly don't have time to prepare fancy snacks for my children! So I set about finding some fun and healthy but also quick and easy snacks that will pique their interest.
1. Butterfly Snack Bags (source)
Take a zip-lock bag and a peg, and peg down the middle of the bag. Stick (or draw) on eyes and the pipe cleaner to finish. Fill the two sides of the bag with what ever healthy snacks you have to hand!
Halve a pear, add some grapes and blueberries with a little carrot to decorate! 3. Peanut Butter Slice (source) Slice an apple, add some peanut butter - nothing-could-be-simpler! 4. Egg Boats (source) Peel and halve a hard-boiled egg. Cut some cheese into sails and stick on a cocktail stick. 5. Cat in the Fruit Hat (source) Apple, banana and strawberry and a cocktail stick! 6. Melon Heart Kebabs (source) Melon hearts on lolly sticks ready to dip in to yoghurt. 7. Flower Power & Peanut Butter and Jam Sushi (source) Carrots and a celery stick with some dip. Peanut Butter and Jam rolled up! 8. Healthy Cone (source) Grilled cheese and sliced banana with a cherry on top. 9. Flower Pot Fun (source) Crackers, celery, carrots, grapes, bananas, strawberries, jam sandwich and ham.
