As a busy mom, I'm always looking for easy kids snacks. Not surprising, Horizon has a solution! I've been a fan of their shelf-safe milk boxes for years, but now my kids love their Macaroni and Cheese - it's hard to resist those fun cow shapes or their Snack Crackers. And the cow shaped Fruit Snacks? They can't get enough of them! I like how Horizon makes it easy for them to make good choices about what kids snacks they are eating at home or on the go!
There's even enough variety for me to make a pretty awesome plate for them - whether for lunch time or a snack?
Need more easy kids snacks ideas? Here's 26 more to choose from! Not only only is there a lot of variety, but it's a fun way for your kids to practice the alphabet too!
A – Apples – dried apples, apple slices – kids love apples.
B- Bananas – I like mine plain, but frozen and pureed it tastes a little like ice cream!
C – Cheese sticks – perfect for at home or on the go
D- Drinks – Great for lunchboxes, snacks, travel and more, shelf-stable Horizon milk boxes are a perfect alternative to juice boxes.
E- Edamame – either cooked or freeze dried these are great bite sized snacks
F- Fruit Snacks – one of my favorite meal time treats. Also a go too for in the car or in the diaper bag
G- graham crackers in fun cow shapes- what’s not to love?
H- Hummus – my kids love hummus. I love the protein!
I- Icees – blend juice and seltzer water together, freeze in popsicle molds or Dixie cups
J- Jello Jigglers – A special treat among all the good for you. Cut them out with cookie cutters and watch your kids smile!
K- kabobs – skewered fruit or meat and veggies, it’s food on a stick, and that’s hard to go wrong.
L- lettuce wraps – forgo the bread and load lettuce up with beans, meat and more for a fun meal or snack.
M- Mac and Cheese – whether they are in single serve cups or fun shapes, Mac and Cheese is a big hit with kids

S- Super Squeeze Pouches – Organic Milk, Fruit and Protien? This is snack everyone can feel good about.
T- Tortilla Chips – Dip in Salsa or sprinkle with shredded cheese. Mmmmm
U- Unbuttered Popcorn – While it’s not for the super littles because of the chokng hazard, but unbuttered popcorn is a great snack for kids.
