25 easy and delicious summer snacks for kids, all super healthy too!

My small person is a complete “snackaholic”!

In the summer months when she is spending so much more time outside in the fresh air, I feel like she takes snacking to a whole new level and sometimes I find it difficult to keep up with her requests!

If your kids are constantly asking you to fetch them snacks, then try making a snack station in the fridge filled with healthy and filling snacks that they can help themselves.

I have a post all about how to make our own here: Fridge Snack Station for Kids.
