Spring Snack Attack: Healthy Eating for Energetic Preschoolers

Springtime brings increased activity for preschoolers and with it, the need for healthy, energy-boosting snacks. It’s important to choose snacks that provide nutrition and sustained energy for all their playtime adventures. Here are some great snack ideas that are both healthy and kid-friendly.

Banana and Almond Butter Roll-Ups: Spread almond butter on a whole wheat tortilla, place a banana on top and roll it up. Slice into bite-sized pieces for an easy, nutritious snack.

Cheese and Fruit Kabobs: Alternate pieces of cheese and fruit like grapes or melon on skewers. This snack is a fun way to combine protein and vitamins.

Cottage Cheese and Pineapple: Mix cottage cheese with pineapple chunks for a snack rich in protein and vitamin C.

Veggie Chips and Avocado Dip: Make your own veggie chips by baking thinly sliced sweet potatoes or beets. Serve with a creamy avocado dip for a snack full of vitamins and healthy fats.

Oatmeal Energy Bites: Combine oats, honey, peanut butter, and dried fruits or nuts to make energy bites. These are easy for little hands to eat and provide long-lasting energy.

These snacks are not only nutritious but also fun for preschoolers to eat. They help to keep them energized for all their springtime activities.
