[quote=Anonymous]My kids are 10, 7, and 5, and I didn't really start any pre-packaged snacks until this past summer when we were doing a kitchen renovation and ate a lot of granola bars and cereal bars. Once I started, it was hard to give them up even once we had our kitchen back. (There's a reason they call them convenience foods!) I still refuse to do string cheese and squeezy yogurts--I just can't stand the packaging. We have always done a **lot** of fruit for snacks--bananas, apples, and oranges are all very portable. But we also just don't snack all that much. I never know whether to feel smug or inadequate when we are at the playground or a soccer game and all the other moms pull one snack after another out of their bags, and I just shrug at my kids. My oldest and youngest are fine not snacking. My middle kid would be happier in a snack family, so I've tried to adjust a bit for him.[/quote]
