Homemade Peanut Free School Snacks

Peanut Free School Snacks

I wrote about how to prepare your child for taking their lunch to school when they are in Kindergarten. For most Kindergarten children, this is their first exposure to lunch bags and containers and I’ve shared some tricks to help them in their first few weeks. Now, we need to talk about WHAT to pack in their lunch bag! Many children (including mine) do not love sandwiches (other than peanut butter and grilled cheese), which makes it challenging to pack their lunches.

This Danino Greek Yogurt has a delicious creamy, thick texture and is jam packed full of protein to make a healthy snack option for children. Danino knows what catches a child’s eye in the grocery store because the VERY first time that I went grocery shopping with my daughter after this product hit the fridge in stores, she noticed it. The bright and fun design means that children will more likely be willing to try out this new yogurt with out too much of a fight (in most cases). I say in most cases because my son is considerably more … Continue reading
