Ideas about after school snacks for kids
Posted: Oct 8, 2012
I will soon have some kids, ages 9 and 11, coming after school to my home and before dinner I would like to have some snacks that would be good for them. It has been years since my children were young and not up on the latest. Know fruit but other than that, suggestions? TIA

Fruit and Grain Bars - See Msg
[ In Reply To ..]Check nutrition labels on breakfast bars/grain bars in the supermarket. We get Great Value fruit and grain bars here. They have plenty of vitamins in them and have a sweet component. They come in different flavors, mixed berry, apple and cinnamon. They're quite tasty and satisfy a sweet tooth without overkill.
A lot of those so-called healthy bar-type things don't actually have much nutrition, they're just fiber(not a bad thing), but there's no actual nutrition.
I saw apple, cinn raison and cheese recipe - looked delich
[ In Reply To ..]You just load a couple of thin slices of apples on a slice of cinnamon raisen bagel and put a slice of white cheddar cheese in the middle, toast in the toaster. Looked easy and yummy.
My kids love dipping graham crackers into - Nutella. They're too
[ In Reply To ..]tired/lazy to spread it on, I guess!
DH grew up with powdered sugar and milk icing on - graham crackers. nm

We used to put Graham Crackers - In a bowl, and...
[ In Reply To ..]...sprinkle cinnamon and sugar on them then pour some milk on top. Just a snack, wouldn't have that for breakfast. That's what Cocoa Puffs were for, LOL.

Elementary School Kids Can Get CondomsJun 29, 2010
PROVINCETOWN, Mass. (AP) — A new policy in a Massachusetts public school district that makes condoms available to all students, even those in elementary school, is drawing criticism from some who say it goes too far.

Under the policy, any student requesting a condom from a school nurse must first receiv ...
