5 Easy Snacks for Kids

August 28, 2020 Comments : 3

This post was sponsored by Hood as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central and all opinions expressed in my post are my own. You can find my full disclosures HERE.

It is back to school time well, sort of. However back to school looks like for your kids we can all agree on one thing: our children will still require an immense amount of snacks. My kids snack all the time which means it is essential to have easy snacks for kids on hand. Bonus points if they are healthy.

It took me a while to figure out exactly which snacks my kids would love so I compiled a list here to make it easier on those parents who are looking for easy snack ideas.

5 Easy Snacks for Kids

Celery/Carrots/Bell peppers & Hummus

My kids love to dip veggies in hummus over and over again. I love that they are getting a healthy snack in.

Apples & Peanut Butter

Apple slices with peanut butter are an easy snack to go to in the afternoons when those kids need a little extra pick me up.

Yogurt & Fresh Fruit

Both my kids love yogurt. Throw some fresh fruit in it, mix it up and serve it. They will love it!

Cheese & Crackers

Another easy go to snack in our household is cheese and crackers. Easy to make and easy to eat. They can even eat it while they are reading or doing afternoon school work.

Milk

Something that both my kids love is milk and our go to is Hood milk. Not only can it be an easy snack for kids especially paired with granola bars (or on occasion cookies). It provides the nutrition that children need. Containing eight grams of protein and nine essential nutrients per serving as well a reliable source of calcium and Vitamin , my kids are getting what they need from a cold glass of Hood milk. It is also produced without artificial growth hormones and is tested for antibiotics and packaged in a LightBlock Bottle which means that the milk is coming to you as fresh as can be from the farm.

Knowing that my children are getting exactly what they need nutritionally and loving that snacks I provide them. makes this mama happy.

Pair it with just about any snack imaginable!

*No significant difference has been shown between milk derived from rbST-treated and non-rbST-treated cows.
**FDA requires milk to be tested for certain antibiotics.

The great thing is; these two have no idea that most days I’m just winging it. Now more then ever, it’s important we admit to ourselves this motherhood thing is hard and as long as we keep the small humans happy and fed we are totally winning at this #momlife ⁣

Grateful Warrior; a print from the lovely and tale Grateful Warrior; a print from the lovely and talented @lindsey.erin. A wonderful artist (for real check out her stuff) and person who inspires me daily with her creativity and positivity. ⁣
⁣
This print means so many different things to me in this season of my life. ⁣
It’s a reminder that I am a strong woman who doesn’t give up easily. Someone who aspires to do more, be more. As a partner, mother, friend. ⁣
⁣
It’s also a reminder to be grateful for the opportunities I have and the power of my light I send out into this world. I glance at it everyday, hanging in my office reminding me to be the grateful warrior that I am.⁣

We are officially closing out this year!!⁣ 2020 We are officially closing out this year!!⁣
2020 was a year full of many challenges but it held some amazing moments and opportunities as well. ⁣
⁣
We took a fun, much needed vacation at the beginning of the year with @carnival cruise line, got married @samosetresort on a whim, personally I grew my blog and met some pretty large goals I had set for myself this year and the kids stayed happy and healthy. So even with the bad, there was a lot of good.⁣
⁣
I’m hopeful that this New Year will bring even more opportunities and chances to grow and be a little less hard on others. ⁣
