$Today we were on snack duty today for my son’s hockey team. Aside from no nuts, there aren’t many rules when it comes to snack duty. The trio on the right is a typical snack that kids get. And while I do believe that kids should enjoy treats - the lines can get a bit blurred between a snack and a treat. A snack is essentially a mini-meal that has nutrients such as vitamins, fibre and protein. Whereas a treat is a treat 🍭.⠀ ⠀ With Halloween, birthday parties and other celebrations, the amount of sugar and sodium our kids consume is shockingly high and can really add up. ⠀ ⠀ Here’s my attempt to provide more of a snack vs a treat after an intense game of 🏒 ⠀ ⠀ 1. Skip the juice - a juice box has upwards of 20 grams of sugar with little to no nutrients. Swap in a piece of fruit for vitamin C and fibre. ⠀ ⠀ 2. Popcorn is a great snack filled with fibre and protein and has a fraction of the sodium found in potato chips. Plus it’s sugar free!⠀ ⠀ 3. In place of chewy candy - which sticks to teeth and contains artificial colours/dyes choose a fun size 🍫 which has less sugar and a cleaner ingredient list than candy. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #snackwell #toomuchsugar #sodiumoverload #healthychoices #treats #processedfoods #rdapproved #momapproved #toomanytreats #halloween #celebration #choices #kidapproved #nutrientdense #feedingkids #teamsports #snackduty #cavaties #healthpromotion #anarallidinanutrition #schoolsnacks #sugaroverload$
