Good snacks for kindergarten kids?

Question

Parents have to donate snacks every so often for the kids in the kindergarten class, I am looking for some different types of ideas of what to send in? Any ideas help=]

Thanks

Answer 1

I've always sent in pretzels, trail mix, animal crackers or even string cheese, which I sent in a little cooler.

I've seen cupcakes and cookies be sent in but who would want to deal with that class when the sugar rush sets in.

Good luck.

Answer 2

pretzels are a good one

graham crackers

goldfish crackers

small boxes of raisins

Answer 3

If its a special snack, like for a birthday or a shining star day (where your kid is the center of attention) I make frozen chocolate dipped banana pops. They always get a good reaction from the teachers (who want healthy snacks) and the kids who dont realize they are eating anything but something on a stick.

Also, fruit Juice shapes are great. Mix fruit juice and gelatine and cool in in a long pan, then use a cookie cutter to cut out neat shapes.

Answer 4

cheese sticks you can buy a big bag or two and send in the required amout for the class. cracker and cheese packs you know the ones with the little tub of srpeadable cheese and the little red stick.

Answer 9

Does it have to be prepackaged or can you make it yourself?  

Granola mixes.... trail mix... pretzel snack mixes are good... dried fruit, nuts, raisins, sunflower seeds etc...it's all natural stuff.  Ants on a log (not to insult anyone intelligence, but it seems like a lost thing...celery with peanut butter and raisins on top)   I make my own chocolate covered pretzels that kids love... popcorn balls... taffey apples...
