    For them or for you? Fruit (dried apricots, apples, orange slices), peanut butter, trail mix are a few I go to.

    I always try to have fruit and veggies cut up in the fridge that way it's always ready to go so I don't have an excuse to grab something less healthy plus then my son will grab it as well. And I always try to have a bag of trailmix around.
