Guest Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 I feel like I'm stuck in a rut with children's snacks. We offer toast, cheese & crackers, carrot sticks,raisins, various fruits and sometimes fruit loaf on a fairly consistent basis. Porridge, soup and bread/biscuits baked by the children are also offered occasionally, but I'd really appreciate any more original ideas - even better if they're things that children could prepare themselves. I bet someone's got some creative ideas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Rice cakes, naan breads are popular with ours plus cucumber and exotic fruits. Peggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorna Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 How about making fruit skewers just to make it a bit more interesting... the children could make them and then eat them. L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beau Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 We're making dips and cutting up pitta bread to go with our usual fruit and vegetables on Friday. In the past we've also done fruit salad with plain yoghurt, muffin pizza's, dutch crispbread faces, cream cheese and cracker snowmen. The children also go mad for hard boiled eggs! Sounds a bit strange but they love them. Hot cross buns are good at this time of year. Also making cheese straws or scones. Don't forget breadsticks too.
