Snacks That Sparkle: Healthy After-School Nibbles
By the middle of October, your kids have probably settled into their school schedules. But the after-school snack struggle isn't just a problem during the first few weeks of class. Keeping the kids on track is a full-time job, especially when it comes to monitoring their eating habits. With the sugar rush of Halloween right around corner, it is especially important to find healthy foods your kids will love just as much as the candy they are about to spend weeks binging on.
One way to cut back is by swapping out soda, sugary drinks, and energy drinks for healthier choice. A flavorful, slightly carbonated option that kids may actually enjoy drinking is Sparkling ICE. Sparkling ICE is a naturally flavored slightly sparkling water that is zero calories, gluten-free, sugar-free, and kosher. It contains fruit juice, vitamins, and healthy antioxidants to keep kids fueled enough to finish up their homework.
The best part about this healthy alternative drink is that you can use it to make sweet snacks that kids will gobble up and love to make!
