- Your children are more likely to eat healthy snacks if you eat them too. Find healthy snacks that you enjoy eating that you can share with your children.
- Choose snacks that include low-fat dairy, fresh fruit, vegetables, lean protein or whole grains. Think of snacks as “mini meals” with foods from different food groups that provide kids with energy and the nutrients they need to grow healthy.
- Eat a rainbow! Try to add as many colorful fruits and vegetables as you can to every meal.
