Summer is here, and while the kids have likely been home from school for a while due to COVID-19, now, there is no school work to keep them busy! In the midst of pool days, playing outside, and other fun summer activities, it’s likely that they will work up quite the appetite. Chips, ice cream, and other junk foods are probably some of their go-to snacks. However, it’s important to incorporate veggies and fruits into the kids’ snacks too! If you have difficulties getting your kids to snack on nutritious foods, look no further. We have some delicious, healthy summer snacks for kids that they are sure to love.
