11. Popcorn
You may consider popcorn a junk food, but it’s really a nutritious whole grain. As long as you don’t drown it in unhealthy toppings, popcorn can be a healthy snack for kids. Air-pop your own popcorn, drizzle it with a little
butter, and sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese on top. However, use caution when offering popcorn to younger children, as it can be a choking hazard.
12. Celery with peanut butter and raisins
Celery with peanut butter and raisins, sometimes called “ants on a log,” is a fun way to get your child to eat a vegetable. Cut a stalk of celery into three or four pieces, spread peanut butter inside the celery, and arrange a few raisins on top of the peanut butter. These three foods combined provide a good balance of carbs,
protein, and fat.
