Healthy Snackers for Kids

With a new school year approaching, children's use of brain power will increase dramatically. When the brain is used, it consumes a significant amount of calories, most notably carbohydrates. So don't be surprised when your children comes home from school just starving and states, "Oh Mom, I am so hungry, I am a hungry, hungry, hippo."

However, you want something nutritious for them because supper is still hours away. You can fuel their little brains and bodies with these 25 healthy snacks for kids by going to EatRight.Org. A lot of these healthy snacks sound pretty good and I think I would like some myself. 

EatRight.org is part of the American Dietetic Association. This organization is made up of registered dietitians and dietetic technicians, all trained food and nutrition experts. So when these trained individuals put together these snacks, they try to conform to taste and offer a variety of food for the children to choose from. It was important to the trained individuals to provide your child with as many of the needed vitamins and minerals as possible, along with protein, carbohydrates for brain fuel and yes, essential fats.

Learning good food choices early on in life will help them make better choices as adults. Now, browse around the website, where you will find sound advice from professionals who want to help increase your knowledge about nutrition for the health of you and your family.
