This organizational tip will help when you hear, “Mom, I’m hungry!” for the 100th time today! Get healthy snacks ready and into your kids’ hands quickly. (A great help for picky eaters too!)
Gets Kids to Make Healthy Food Choices
I set up a snack organization station in our fridge. Using a plastic container or lunch box, load it up with healthy snacks.
I put in cheese sticks, sliced apples, and granola bars. Add in some cups of water and you are set for the next time your child is hungry…again!
The snack station or snack box sets in the fridge down on the lowest shelf so even preschoolers can grab a snack from the choices you have stocked. Your child gets to feel that they are making a choice, and you get to feel good about the healthy options at their reach. It is great for trying to teach picky eaters healthy eating habits.

This is an awesome idea! It seems I hear "I'm hungry!" a hundred times per day. And I love that this gives them an option, but ones you know are healthy!
I hear ya! This is such a simple way to get the kids choosing their own snacks! Thanks for stopping by, Emma. đŸ™‚
