Importance of Independence
I am a huge fan of creating independence in our children but when it comes to snacks if they want healthier options it usually involves me preparing it for them (instead of them grabbing unhealthier choices like crackers from the pantry). Food is tricky with kids because you can never tell if they’re really hungry or just bored and looking for attention. I decided I had to find a way to provide HEALTHY options for my girls to have full access to and give them the freedom to follow their hunger cues without a battle over their options and wether or not I was available to help prepare their food at that time.
How to Prep
What You Need:
Fruit Meat Cheese Plastic Ramekins (or reusable ones)
Putting them together is very simple! Simply chop up your fruit, meat, and cheese and add to your ramekins . When you're done, store in the fridge at a level the kids can reach and you're set!
