Medical Video: Healthy Snacks For Kids Challenge | Alison from Millennial Moms
Healthy snacks or snacks for children are very important as well as breakfast or deep sleep. Children may not eat much at one time because their stomachs are smaller, but they eat more often. About a third of a child's daily calories come from snacks, so snacks are as important as a balanced breakfast, lunch or dinner.
What are the healthy snacks that you can prepare for children?
This delicious snack will provide an energy boost for children.
1 piece
Fruit is a popular choice of snacks for both children and parents. Children need 1.5 cups of fruit per day, based on KidsHealth.org. Dried fruit is a popular alternative. If additional ingredients, such as sugar, are listed on the label, most of the nutritional value does not change.
2. Cereals
Cereals provide unlimited benefits such as lowering blood cholesterol levels, improving your overall health. But be careful not to serve high-sugar cereals. The sugar content of some brands was investigated by the Consumer Report, and they found that Snacks of Kellogg’s Honey contains as much sugar as contained in sugar donuts! The Consumer Report also assesses many other low-sugar and nutritious brands such as Cheerios, Kix and Life.
3. Fried yams
This fried sweet potato is far better for health than ordinary fries (and tastes good when tasted with tomato sauce).
4. Sugarless peanut butter
Peanut butter contains fiber and protein. If your child has no allergic problems with peanuts, they can take it along with a cup of bread for breakfast.
5. Cake with fruit
Who are the kids who don't like cake? Try making a low sugar cake and put the fruits into the dough and topping. This can be a delicious or healthy breakfast or snack, as well as interesting in the eyes of children.
6. Vegetables that have been cut into small pieces
The problem with most vegetables is usually difficult to eat and not attractive to children. Make vegetables the first choice by ensuring that vegetables are the first thing a child sees when he opens the refrigerator.
7. Healthy pizza version
Pizza can also be a healthy snack! But make a healthier version, with whole wheat pita bread. Brush your pizza sauce, low-fat cheese, and your favorite delicious vegetables for nutritious snacks.
8. Popcorn
Popcorn aka popcorn is filled with whole grains and fiber. Research by Health magazine shows that these grains can reduce your chances of developing diabetes and heart disease.
If not covered in butter and salt, popcorn is actually a very healthy snack for children. Many children are usually not so eager to eat plain popcorn, so to make a healthy version of popcorn more appetizing, sprinkle cinnamon or garlic powder on top. If all else fails, you can also simply add plain popcorn to your dried fruit and nut snack.
