Fun Snacks For Kids

Kids love to make their own trail mix. Fill some small containers with each of the following:

* Raisins
* Carob chips
* Nuts
* Whole wheat pretzels
* Cheerios or other cereal
* Banana chips
* Dried fruits

Then let your kids pack their own snacks from the ingredients above. They get to add whatever they want and you know their snack is nutritious.

My other favorite snack is fruit and cheese kabobs. Cut up cheese and assorted fruits and let the kids make their own kabobs. Depending on the age of the child, you might want to use short sticks so the child only gets 2 pieces of cheese. For older children you can cut larger squares of cheese and larger pieces of fruits.
