After-school snacks

Many parents worry about their child’s nutrition on busy weekdays when every hour is scheduled. After-school snacks can help fill nutrient gaps and keep kids energized until dinner.

Why are after-school snacks important?

After a long day, children often need a quick energy boost. Nutritious snacks can help restore energy, support concentration, and prevent overeating at dinner by curbing hunger.

What makes a good after-school snack?

Choose snacks that are both nutritious and appealing, such as fruits, whole-grain crackers, yogurt, or cheese. These options provide a balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and healthy fats to keep your child satisfied and ready for homework, activities, or play.
