12 Quick Snacks for Kids


This is a very simple, very tasty snack that all children will love. Spread a thin layer of chocolate spread over a cream cracker and top with banana slices.

Cut an apple (green or red) into slices and serve to your child with a portion of peanut butter. Perfect snack for when they come in from school.

These should be made in advance for those moments your child is craving a snack. Click here for the full recipe.

This is the perfect way to use up over-ripened fruit. Chop and blend whatever fruit you have to use. Stir plain yoghurt into the mixture (mixture should be half yoghut, half fruit) and fill ice pop containers. Freeze.

Pop some popcorn either in a saucepan or in the microwave. Add a few tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with your choice of seasoning. We recommend sugar & cinnamon, chilli powder & lemon juice and garlic powder & parmesan.

This is modern (and healthier) version of the sugar sandwiches your mum used to make when you wanted a snack. Butter a piece of wholegrain toast, sieve some icing sugar over top and grill for a minute or two. Add another light layer of icing sugar.

It may sound like an odd combination but it works really well. Toast some wholegrain bread or a multigrain roll. Spread with a layer of cream cheese and top off with some sliced strawberries. Quick, interesting and yummy. Click here for a slightly fancier version of the snack.

This is a classic combination - cheese, crackers, simple.

Top a bowl of plain yoghurt with berries or chopped fruit. Add some granola or muesli if you have it.

Smoothies are a great choice of snack for kids because they can be made to suit any taste preference. We recommend an Almond & Berry Smoothie or a Mango Madness Smoothie.

Slice carrots, celery and peppers into sticks and serve with your child's favourite hummus.
