12 Healthy Kids’ Snacks You’ll Want to Steal for Yourself
When I was a kid, my after-school snack was always the best part of my day. In fact, most days, the thought of digging into a bag of Teddy Grahams or sinking my teeth into a Baby Bell Cheese round was the only thing really getting me through the last five minutes of class.
Now, I don’t get nearly as excited about snack time. I have, like, two drawers full of every healthy chip and protein bar imaginable at my desk, but they don’t get my heart pumping the way a Go-Gurt or a good old fashioned string cheese would. Maybe it’s because the packaging isn’t as colorful or as animated, or maybe it’s all the nostalgia that’s been going around lately, but whatever it is one thing is for sure: I want some kids’ snacks and I want them now.
Since I figure I can’t possibly be the only one craving playground food, I decided to round up the best healthy kid-friendly snacks on the market right now for your shopping pleasure. These 12 products are way less artificial than the goodies you might remember (looking at you, Fruit by the Foot). But they’ll definitely still satisfy the cravings of your youth.

Even though it seems like baby food, apple sauce is kind of the best (I mean, have you tried it in yogurt or oatmeal?). And it’s even better when you can eat it out of a squeeze pouch. Buy them here.
