Healthy Snack Ideas
Snacks are an opportunity to add nutrition, not just fill hunger between meals. Consider these healthy options:
– Fruit slices with nut butter
– Yogurt with berries and a sprinkle of granola
– Veggie sticks with hummus
– Cheese cubes and whole-grain crackers
Hydration Matters
Water should be the primary drink for children, as sugary beverages can lead to cavities and unhealthy weight gain. Milk, whether dairy or fortified plant-based, is another good option for calcium and vitamin D.
