My big girl is three years old and she likes to eat snacks very much, leading to eat main food less. This problem troubled me a lot, how can I control snack for her? Too much snacks will affect her healthy. How do you give snack for little guys?

Here's the solution. STOP giving into her! If you think you've got a problem with her now, it's gonna be a lot worse in the future. You're only teaching her worse habits.

Some suggestions: Don't give snacks right before the main meals. Come up with a schedule and stick with it. Provide healthy things like fruits, veggies, cheese, egg, yogurt.. Cutting the foods into fun shapes, will help them to enjoy eating these things more. It's also advised to have them eat their snack away from the television.
