My kid likes to have biscuits coated in choco or strawberry. She sometimes have brownies and cupcakes. But the thing is she don't like it anymore. She told me yesterday that she wants something salty. But I don't want junk foods to be her snack in school. She is in kinder and she attends her class for only a couple of hours. Can you please share me some recipes or ideas for kids snacks. Thanks and happy my lotting to all of you!!!

try the time tested spam meat on a sandwich. of course, you need to buy the spam meat that is not labeled low in sodium. i prefer the low sodium spam meat since i find the other spam meat flavors too salty. my 3 year old most of the time has this for his snack. i also send him a sachet of his favorite cheese spread since the cheese spread would disappear if i put it on top of the spam already. my child prefers his food plain: carbs is bread and protein is meat. i have to pack each separately. thank heavens for foiled toasted breads .

banana, strawberry, chips, cheese stick, go-gurt ( yogurt on the go ), sometime mini cup cake, mini muffin, rice crispies, granola bar, with juice pouch or juice boxes.

I love to give my kids fruit and some Oreo cookie. Most of the time, she will take fruit instead. She tells me that she wants to have Oreo right after school.

Hi Niah, we are very lucky as the school my son attends does not allow them to take sweets or crisps so the children don't ask for things like that as snacks. My son takes a whole sliced green pepper with him to snack on, raw carrots, small fruits like plums or tangerines, or a hard boiled egg. I also have to send him with a packed lunch as well.
