[quote=Anonymous]Would it work for you to leave healthy snacks sitting out and easy to grab? You're working with a slightly awkward age range where your 11 year old is way more independent (and probably quicker to get hungry) than your six year old. Don't over think things - sounds like you might being doing that a bit. For example, if you're having pizza for dinner and their afternoon snack happens to be cheese and crackers, that's not actually a big deal. Similarly, french toast for breakfast and a mini yogurt for a snack isn't a big deal either. I'd say plan your usual meals and then having healthy snacks available for the older one to take when s/he wants and, as necessary, prod the younger ones towards them. [/quote]
