This summer, give them nutritious and delicious snacks to munch on that will provide them with energy to do all the summer fun things! Here are some of our favorite sweet summer treats for preschoolers!<\/p>\n<p>On a hot day, nothing beats a good popsicle. Instead of popsicles that are filled with sugar, try making a watermelon pop using just that \u2013 a watermelon! Purchase watermelon triangles from your local grocery store or cut up a large watermelon into triangles. Then, carefully cut a slit into the rind and insert a popsicle stick. Freeze the watermelon pops on a sheet pan with wax paper separating layers. In a few hours, your little one will be enjoying frozen, fruity goodness!<\/p>\n<p>If your preschooler will eat veggies, an easy way to make eating vegetables more fun for them is to put them in a little cup that they can easily take on the go! Get small clear cups at your local grocery store. Then, squeeze their dressing or dip of choice into the bottom of the cup. Cut vegetables julienne-style and stick them in the dressing so that they stay secure in the cup. If you\u2019re lucky, you may be able to sneak a few new vegetables into each cup for your preschooler to try!<\/p>\n<p>Energy balls are another easy snack idea that your little one is sure to love! Many energy ball recipes have yummy ingredients in them like peanut butter, oats, little chocolate candies, honey, and even some good stuff like flaxseed and chia seeds. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blessthismessplease.com\/8-no-bake-oatmeal-energy-balls\/\">Look up a recipe <\/a>that your child would like and keep these little balls in the fridge or freezer for a cool treat on a hot day!<\/p>\n<p>Summertime snacking doesn\u2019t have to be a challenge- it can be fun!
