Fun and Easy Snacks for Kids
71My Daughter comes home everyday from school hungry I try to feed her the best, and healthy foods but sometimes she wont eat what I make her so what do you do? Here are some fun and easy snacks kids love to eat.
Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches
1. Get two slices of bread take a knife and spread a good amount of peanut butter on one slice.
2. Clean the knife off so that you dont mix peanut butter and jelly together so it doesnt get it in the container.
3. Spread your favorite Jelly or Jam on the other slice of bread use a little less jelly than peanut butter.
4. Put the slices of bread together with the peanut butter and jelly facing one another. Now cut the sandwich in half so that its easier for the kids to eat.
