I need ideas for snacks to send to my sons pre k class. i was informed today that i have snack duty tomorrow. the only restrictions is no blue berries. nuts, gluten, wheat, all of that is fine. something simple but something fun that my son can help prepare.

please and thank you!

    hmmm, making a snack for pre-k? I admit I always just bought snacks for my kids classes (slacker yes lol) what about ants on a log? Not too sure about the fun factor for a kids making them but you never know! If I think of anything else I'll post it.

    Depending on the age of pre-kers (3 vs. 4 yr olds), you can do celery/pb, cheese cubes, apple slices/pb, raisins, carrots, grapes (I wouldn't bring the carrots/grapes if most of the kids are under 4), air-popped popcorn (again, only for the 4+), sunflower seeds.

    Maybe like crackers with cheese and ham cut into shapes with a mini cookie-cutter? My son goes nuts for those Mickey Mouse shaped cheese they sell now, and he's 3 1/2!

    Someone posted a recipe here for banana bonbons a few days ago. They would be super cute made with pretzel sticks, do a search for them.

    In my school district, the snacks have to be pre-packaged. No homemade treats allowed. Kind of a bummer.

    With our kids, we just did something easy like apple slices and things like that. It's quick and easy and most kids like apple slices.

    You do the slicing and let him dip them in some pineapple or orange juice to keep them from turning brown.

    Orange smiles, ants on a log, graham crackers with a couple options of things to put on them or dip them in...

    Maybe you can do fruit/cracker with a yogurt/cream cheese/strawberry dip?

    This makes me so sad!
