Make a healthy and fun snack kids will love.  Place healthy cereals, nuts, dried fruits and dark chocolate chips in small bowls and let your kids scoop their favorite mixture into a snack size baggie for a great snack that is easy to take on the go or outback.  A great way to encourage a healthy snack and fun at the same time.

• Cereal
• Nuts
• Raisins/Cranberries
• Dark Chocolate Chips
• Dried Fruit Bits

• Snack or sandwich size bags or plastic cups

Place each ingredient into separate bowls.  Put out plastic baggies or cups and a few small spoons.  Let your kids help themselves and scoop different ingredients into the baggie.  Now your kids have a nutritious snack they can take with them outdoors or on the go.

Time saving tip: pack additional trail mix baggies or containers so you have them ready for lunches or trips in the car.
