Fruit SnacksMost kids want all the sugary stuff. But you'd be surprised what you can do with healthy fruit snacks and have your kids gobble them up just like it was candy! They may turn their nose up at the initial suggestion of fruit for an afternoon snack, but once they try some of these ideas you'll watch the frown turn to a smile! Eating apples, bananas, and raisins (just to name a few!) on a regular basis ensures long-term health... and you can't start too early. In fact, did you know that apple-based snacks have a nutrient/calorie ratio superior to a lot of other more sugary snacks being consumed by children? It's common sense, and probably not news to you, but apples pack a wallop of great nutrients that growing kids absolutely need. You can help your kids learn to love eating fruit by mixing it up with some fantastic ideas you'll find here. Try some of the recipes below and see what kind of results you can get - like, "Mom, can I have some more?" (Music to my ears!)
