Kid-Approved Snack Ideas

Tracking Pixel

Today’s post is sponsored by Stonyfield® Organic YoKids®.

My kids can be picky eaters….and snack time is no exception. If they like a certain snack on a Monday I can almost guarantee you that by Wednesday they will not even touch it. So I try to mix it up at snack time as much as I can! I’ve also learned through the years that my kids like their options…so at snack time I try and give them a little bit of a few different things…and I try to make it fun too!

I know some Pinterest moms make beautifully designed food landscapes for their kids to enjoy….and the truth is, I just don’t have time for that. I have three kids who all tend to need me at the exact same time. So I can make a grape flower or caterpillar…but that is about as creative as I get.

I love seeing what other moms prepare for their kids at snack time, so I thought I’d share a few simple and easy snack ideas that have been a big hit in my house. We use these ideas for after school, after nap time, or really just any time!

Grape Flower – Corn Puffs – Stonyfield® Organic YoKids® Yogurt Pouch

Stonyfield® Organic YoKids® Yogurt – Breakfast Bar – Grapes

Cheese Cubes – Stonyfield® Organic YoKids® Squeezers – Trail Mix

Tomatoes – Goldfish Crackers – Stonyfield® Organic YoKids® Yogurt Pouch
Bunny Crackers – Stonyfield® Organic YoKids® Yogurt – Peach Slices
I’ve been trying to introduce fun and healthy snacks to the kids so that they develop healthy habits. They don’t always eat everything I offer them, and that’s fine.
I use what I have on hand each day and try to introduce new things while still sticking to some of their favorites. My kids are much more willing to try a new snack food if it’s just a few little bites surrounded by foods they love!
Lately Sadie loves these Stonyfield® Organic YoKids® yogurt pouches…and I love that they are a convenient and delicious grab-and-go snack that can be enjoyed anywhere – they come in pouches, tubes, smoothies, and cups! Stonyfield® Organic YoKids® is the #1 organic kids yogurt brand. They recently announced a sugar reduction across their yogurt varieties which means
25% – 40% less sugar than the leading kids’ yogurt!
Stonyfield® Organic YoKids® yogurts are certified organic, which means that each cup is made without the use of pesticides, artificial hormones, antibiotics and GMOs. I love that I can feel good about offering them to my kids at snack time. I also love that yogurt helps fill them…otherwise both kids are all over me begging for a snack while I’m trying to get dinner ready. So there you have it! What kinds of snacks to your kids enjoy?
