What is a good snack for my preschooler's class?

Question

I'm looking for a good snack to send to school for my daugter's preschool class. She has the last day of school and I'd like something special for them.

Answer 1

Trying to think of things w/o peanut butter:  Oatmeal raisin cookies, banana or zucchini bread, jello jigglers, crackers and cheese, fruit tray, veggie tray with dip, mini bagels and cream cheese, granny smith apples & caramal dip.

Answer 2

The list our teacher sent home was fresh veggies and dip; fresh fruits, real fruit juice, fruit snacks, graham crackers, cereal bars, goldfish, Teddy Grahams, cereal(like cheerios0, animal crackers(preferably the whole grain kind), crackers and jelly. We can bring homemade treat like cookies, cake or cupcakes on their birthday.

Answer 3

The other day we had little Kabobs with the class and they loved them.  We took small cubes of cheese and small cubes of beef sticks (like slim Jim type things but not the spicy ones) and layered them on a toothpick.  All but three kids asked for seconds.  Serve them with some crackers and you are good to go.   It is healthy too!!

mini pizza - buy a couple of pizza bases and get a round biscuit cutter and cut out little rounds and top them with what ever you like eg ham & pinapple, ham & mushroom etc.  if you have time to spare you can make faces on them with the vegies

Answer 12

teachers will love it if it's something good and good for you..veggies and ranch dip, pretzels and a yogurt friut dip, "puppy chow" is always my favorite not so good for you snack.  Please, as a preschool teacher  NO CUPCAKES OR CAKE!! So messy!!

Answer 13

Here are some allergen free snacks:  Veggie booty, popcorn (good for teeth), fresh fruit, cashew rice crispy bars (recipe at www.wholefoods.com), hummus and corn chips, baby carrots and hummus, apples and peanut butter or cashew butter if there's someone in her class with peanut allergies).

Answer 14

Tons of great ideas here ... but make sure you contact the teacher first and get her okay! Many preschools and/or teachers have policies about snacks, especially considering allergies and nutritional issues. I'd hate for you to go through all that work to walk in with your snack in the morning and be told "sorry, but no". Make sure you check first!

Answer 15

Kids love fruits and trail mixes, you know the easy to eat stuff. If you give them something small and easy to chew/swallow, I am sure they will love it. One thing to make is a fruit salad, but don't make it too early or it'll get bad! Or trail mix is good, goldfish crackers too. Have fun!

Answer 16

I know at my daughter's school, they do not allow certain foods as snacks like candy, cookies, etc.  I know popcorn goes over well, and does vanilla waffers.  Maybe a banana for each child, or strawberries?  Fresh fruit is always a hit.

Answer 17

Fruit Roll Ups,Capris,Cup Cakes AND Punch.

Answer 18

animal crackers

goldfish

fruit chews

yogurt

cereal

any thing that is eassy to eat

Answer 19

YOU HAVE A LOT OF GREAT IDES TO CHOOSE FROM HERE SO I'LL ONLY ADD ONE MORE, BAKE ANGEL FOOD CAKE IN ICE CREAM CONE AND PUT A LITTLE VANILLA ICE CREAM OR WHIP CREAM ON TOP. (USE SMALL FLAT BOTTOM CONES)
