Kid-Friendly Desserts and Snacks

We buy small Graham cracker crusts (in the tiny pan) and add chocolate chips or pieces of chocolate bars. Then top with small marshmallows. Perfect on a grill or oven!

S'mores nachos: lay out graham crackers on a skillet and top them with mini chocolate kisses and mini marshmallows. Toast and enjoy! Add more toppings if you want too (i.e., peanuts, coconut, m&ms)

Popcorn. We have a silicone microwave popper that my tween and teen use on their own when they feel like having a snack.

Pretzel crisps and hummus. My kids really like the individual prepackaged snackers that come with the two of these together and get those when we're traveling, but it's easy enough to replicate it at home without the waste.

Smoothies. But not ones made with too many seeds :)

Yogurt!

Clementines. Our school requires that snacks be fruits or veggies "in their own skin" (so, no applesauce), and while we often rotate through different fruits depending on what the kids are into at the time, clementines are my favorite because they are easy to grab and go with no effort (plus, sweet and tasty!). Though most are easy enough for kids to peel, when the kids were younger I sometimes pulled up an end of the peel for them to make it even easier.
