Healthier Snacks for Children

Healthier trail mix

 ​

Mix one cup of wholegrain cereal with one-fourth cup of minced nuts (almonds, walnuts, cashews) and one-fourth cup of chopped dried fruit (apricots, prunes, raisins, and cranberries) for a portable, healthier refreshment.

Yoghurt pots

Top a cup of low-fat, plain yoghurt with granola or fresh fruit for a quick calcium boost.

Frozen treats

Freeze fruits such as seedless grapes, kiwifruit or strawberries for an icy-cool treat that is low in sugar and high in vitamins. For extra fun, skewer a few fruit pieces on a satay stick or toothpick before freezing.

Easy guacamole

Mash a ripe avocado with a squeeze of lemon juice, a pinch of salt and some chopped ripe tomatoes to make a mild, nutritious guacamole that even your picky child will love. Serve with plain tortilla chips or wholegrain crackers.

Cheese and crackers

Top wholegrain crackers with a soft cheese spread or a piece of tasty cheddar for an easy-to-prepare snack that is rich in calcium.

Cucumber, celery, carrots, and/or bell peppers should be cut into segments and served with a small amount of low-fat vinaigrette. This is an easy-to-prepare savory refreshment; simply prepare the vegetables and store them in an airtight container in a fridge.
