I know that the month of February is almost over but did you know that February is National Snack Food Month? I love my snack foods. I’m not going to lie, my favorite snack foods are the salty snack foods that are full of food coloring, preservatives, calories and junk. Yup. I love junk food. But as a family, we try to eat healthier and show our children how to eat healthier. So we try to eat healthy snacks like fruit, nuts, organic granola bars and pureed pouches. Below are some of my favorite Healthy Snack Foods that I give my kiddos! AND, in addition to snacks, I’ve included some awesome products that make eating snacks easier and more fun!

Two of my favorite brands to give my kiddos are Earth’s Best and Ella’s Kitchen. I especially love their fruit & veggie pureed pouches. While my son is too old for baby food, he still enjoys pouches. So these are awesome ways to sneak extra fruits and veggies into his diet. I also love that both of these brands have snacks that grow with children. They have everything from baby formula (Earth’s Best), to baby food to pouches to toddler cookies to crackers and more!

The Marcus & Marcus’ animal themed 5PC Bamboo Fiber Dining Set will make snack and meal-time colorful and fun. My daughter loves this set! It is bright, durable and easy to handle for small hands. This set also promotes self-feeding and assists in containing messes. The food grade bamboo fibers incorporate all the strength of traditional plastic dishes and offer the added benefits of eco-friendly construction. Each item in the set is biodegradable, heat resistant and top-rack dishwasher safe. Includes: one large divided plate, one bowl, one cup and a spoon and fork utensil.

These Marcus & Marcus Collapsible Bowls are perfect for traveling with snacks for your kiddos. These Marcus & Marcus Animal Themed Collapsible Bowls are lightweight food-grade silicone containers. Fill the cups with snacks before you leave the house and once your child enjoys their snack, you can collapse the container for easy storage and traveling! Marcus & Marcus collapsible containers are molded from BPA-free, PVC-free and phthalate-free materials Head HERE for more info.

When it comes to cleaning up after snacktime, this Chemical-free Cleaning Home Starter Kit will take care of the job chemical-free! The kit includes three core cloths to clean all major hard surfaces in the home without chemicals and remove 99% of bacteria by using just water. The set comes with a Bathroom Cloth, General Purpose Cloth, and Glass & Polishing Cloth. All cloths are reusable and machine washable for up to 300 washes! Head HERE for more info.

This game incorporates food with physical activity! Educational Insights Pancake Pile-Up! Relay Game teaches children how to follow a sequence, math skills, and helps develop gross motor skills, balance, and coordination! While playing this game you will help your customers at the diner by racing to the grill relay-style, and piling up pancakes in precisely the right order. Such a fun game to play after snack-time when your children have energy to burn! Head HERE for more info.

This Learning Resources Magnetic Healthy Foods toy is wonderful because it is a toy that teaches your child how to create well-rounded, nutritional meals and snacks! This toy will introduce your child to the concept of the 5 food groups and healthy meal planning with this set of magnetic, illustrated foods. This set includes: 33 magnetic pieces, a write & wipe magnetic placemat, 1 menu pad and an activity guide. The suggested activities help kids learn about and choose healthy foods at a restaurant or in the grocery store. Head HERE for more info.

These boxes are the coolest ever and they help promote healthy snacking! Snack in the Box is a unique snack container that features two separate chambers. Each chamber holds 6 ounces of your child’s favorite dry snack and keeps food from being crushed or mushed on the go! I use this in my son’s lunchbox. In half of it I will put a crunchy snack and the other half I will put a small fruit like grapes or blueberries. My favorite box is the Drink in the Box. We don’t give our kiddos much juice and I haven’t found any juice boxes with ingredients that I like. So Drink in the Box is an awesome alternative. You can add your own juice to the box or infuse water with your child’s favorite fruit! Head HERE and HERE for more info.

I love everything about this Pacific Play Tents Tea Party Tent. It is not only adorable but it is the perfect place to make snack time extra sweet for your child! It’s the perfect place for your child to get cozy in with books, a sippy cup and a snack! This adorable little pink house is spacious and bright. It provides tons of fun for indoors or outdoors and mesh windows provide added air ventilation. Head HERE for more info.
