Soulful Thoughts of Rachel

Thinking of daily school snacks for kids can be a challenging task. Kids can easily get bored with the same type of snacks.  To make snacks more appealing to kids, avoid repetition.

If you give your child pastries today, don’t give him pastries again the following day.  Perhaps you can prepare a pasta dish (macaroni and cheese, spaghetti, lasagna, etc.) for your child the following day. Make your kid’s favorite sandwich on another day.  For little kids, you can add a little fun to their sandwiches by using big cookie cutters to form cute sandwiches.  Other snack suggestions that you can serve during the week are cookies, biscuits, fresh fruits and rice toppings.

Summer vacation is officially over. Yohan is set to go back to school on Tuesday.  It’s another school year. I already bought all his materials for school and I need to label all of them later today.  Time to set the alarm clock.  I guess I have to get used to sleeping early and waking up at dawn again.
