We encourage our families to choose healthy snacks with minimal packaging for daily snacks. Some ideas for healthy snacks include:

  • Fresh fruit such as bananas, apple slices, grapes. Try something different like pineapple, melon, kiwi. Berries are a favorite.
  • Fruit kebabs
  • Fresh veggies such as carrots, celery, olives. Don’t forget sliced peppers, snap peas, cucumbers
  • Raisin, craisin, or dried fruit packets
  • Fruit Island, Clif, or Annie’s fruit leathers or fruit snacks
  • Unsweetened apple sauce or fruit cups
  • Banana or plantain chips
  • Air popped popcorn
  • Cheese sticks or Tillamoos
  • Whole grain crackers – Triscuits, Rye crackers, Wasa bread
  • Whole wheat pita with hummus
  • Edemame
  • Whole grain cereals
  • Make your own trailmix with sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and dried fruits like raisins, apricots, apples, pineapple, or cranberries
