| Has anyone found the perfect packaged snack to send your el school kid to school that taste great and is somewhat healthy? No, I'm not cutting up fruit every morning to send with my kid. |
| Banana |
| How about fruit that does not need cutting...banana, grapes, apple? |
| Buy precut fruit? |
|
String cheese?
Is cutting fruit really that big of a deal for you? It takes two minutes. |
| String cheese and crackers |
| String cheese, nuts, fruit you don’t have to cut, yogurt, peanut butter crackers. |
| Chobani vanilla yogurt flip pack with chocolate chips. |
| My now 10 likes the boom chicka popcorn. ( I think that’s what it’s called) she also likes the baked pea chips. I also do cut up fruit sometimes, or an apple sauce pouch now and again. I thought she would age out of those but she hasn’t. |
Lol you can send nuts or peanut butter to school with your kid? HOW? We do cheese and crackers a lot (you can buy those individually packaged cheeses, like Baby Bells or the prepackaged slices). But I also do fruit often. Blueberries or raspberries are the easiest as they require no cutting (blackberries too but they are too tart for most kids). Strawberries require minimal cutting and kids love them. With apples I just slice off one side and cut it into thick slices. Easy. Throw in a piece of cheese, a yogurt cup, or some sun butter and you've got fruit and a protein, which to me is the perfect snack. |
| My kids like the 88 acres seed and oat bars. |
Not all schools/classes are nut free. Yeesh. |
| My kid can take nuts for lunch but not snack because the classroom is nut free but lunch room isn’t. Cheese or yogurt would meet to kept cold fo that would work for my kids lunch but not a snack. Snacks stay in backpacks. |

The perfect snack is cheese and cut up fruit or hummus and cut up vegetables.
You want the snack that’s easiest for you. Try prepackaged pork rinds. |
| Yogurt (in an insulated lunch box) is our go-to for our kid who likes it |
