Having a hard time thinking of great snacks to give your kids? Before you have a snack attack, check out our kid-friendly suggestions for a scrumptious mid-morning or afternoon meal.
HOME COOKED GOODNESS
Cooking at home doesn’t have to be complicated. There is still nothing like your own pizza recipe made of toasted tortilla covered with tomato sauce, sprinkled with cheddar or mozzarella, plus any topping of your choice. It could also be your Dad’s grilled cheese sandwich or your Mom’s burger sliders which are perfect finger food munchies! These simple home-cooked snacks can easily be your kids’ hearty favorites, and to make home cooking more fun, get your kids to join the preparations, you can try using child-safe kitchen tools like MasterChef Junior Baking Kitchen Set - 7 Pc. Kit Includes Real Cooking Tools for Kids and Recipes

FRUITYLICIOUS
Apple slices with peanut butter, it may sound plain, but don’t underestimate the crunchy goodness of apples paired with the creamy (or chunky, whichever your kid prefers) texture of peanut butter. If your kids prefer berries, you can try blueberry-banana muffins, but the most effortless of all is Fruits in Jell-O Cups! Who can say no to that? It’s both a healthy and tasty way to give your kids the flavors they love. These fruity snacks are far better and healthier alternatives to sugary sweets, nutritious and delicious! If you have future little bakers in the family, encourage their creativity in making the muffins with Baketivity 31-Piece Kids Baking Set with 12 Free Recipe Cards - Complete Baking Kit with Real Baking Tools for Kids Ages 6 and Up - Ultimate Baking Gift Set for Girls, Boys, Toddlers, Junior Chefs
or 17-PIECE TINY Baking Set.
FOODIE’S CHOICE
Spam sushi: The name says it all – moist white rice topped with a slice of spam wrapped in seaweed wrapper. Your kids will definitely love it! And who can refuse the chocolatey sweetness of Wicked Oreos, coated cooked in pancake batter to a golden crisp – need we say more? It’s sure to be a hit among the kids!
ALL TIME FAVORITES
PB & J roll-ups: The classic lunch snack, all rolled up in a new and fun form for the kids who are tired of the usual sandwich. Another much loved recipe is Macaroni and cheese. Who doesn't love macaroni and cheese? This creamy pasta dish is even better when you sneak in some protein, like bacon bits or even chicken, to keep your kids satisfied.
