23 Healthy Kids Snacks

If you haven’t heard Zane is going to school this year. I’m so excited and so is he. But one of the things I’ve really been working on is trying to figure out some great healthy snacks for him and for Zarek too!

What About Sugar?

I let my boys have sugar and I try to not stress about giving them too much sugar. But as they are pretty hyperactive little guys I try to watch what I’m giving them. I don’t mind giving my children alternatives to sugar, but if it is not a natural alternative like Truvia we do it in moderation.

So I have collected some great healthy snack ideas to prepare for him!

Snack Ideas:

Fruit:

• Sour Patch Grapes
• Grape Catepillars
• Healthy Frozen Bananas

• Pineapple & Cottage Cheese Yum!

• Tattooed Bananas
• Apple Windows

Dairy

• Yogurt dipped fruit
• Yogurt Drops

• Rainbow Yogurt Parfait with Toasted Quinoa

• Monster Cheese Balls
• Less Mess Yogurt

And More:

• Zaney’s PB Bites
• Homemade Sugar Free Fruit Snacks

• Frozen Crepes

What are some of your favorite healthy snacks for your kids?

Healthy Mom = Healthy Family - That is my life motto and I hope to encourage it to be yours too. January 2011 I made the decision to lose weight and lost 80+ pounds. I saw my boys start getting active with me and I realized I wasn't only changing my life but also my boys.

   wow what great ideas!! Hanna’s always coming home wanting snacks ~ it’s definitely where I fall down ~ you’ve got some great ideas.

   I’ve almost always got healthy popscicles in the freezer (ground fruit and some Vi shake mix)

   we usually stick to things like apple sauce, and nuts, and of course, whatever fruits/veggies she didn’t have time to finish for lunch. Pinning this post so I can grab it for quick ideas!
