Another one of the best foods to give your grade-schooler are sandwiches.
This is because sandwiches are versatile – they can be served as meals or snacks, and your child can choose the ingredients to make the sandwich with. For instance, you can serve the classic peanut butter sandwich for a protein boost, prepare chicken and veggie spread, or go with eggs.
Additionally, sandwiches are easy to make; your kids can join you in preparing them.
Cheese and Crackers
If you’re looking for healthy food choices for kids, you can always count on crackers and cheese.
This on-the-go pair is nutritious. Whole grain crackers, especially those fortified brands, are rich in fiber and other vitamins. They also give your grade-schooler a quick energy boost. And cheese is a tasty source of calcium and protein.
Milk
Did you know that grade-schoolers still need 2 to 3 servings of dairy per day for strong bones and general health? This is the reason why milk is still a healthy food for school-age children.
A daily serving of milk is always welcome, but don’t forget other dairy products, such as cheese and yogurt.
