Back to School After School Snack Ideas + Free Printable
This post was sponsored by a2 Milk® as part of an Ambassador Program for Influence Central. I received complimentary products to facilitate my review.” Today we are sharing back to school snack ideas.
Hard to believe summer is flying by! Before you know it we’ll be planning school lunch ideas, after school snacks and all things back to school. Today’s post we are sharing some of our favorite back to school, healthy snack ideas.
We are getting started a bit early this year. Since Sammie is in summer school and it’s her first year high school. Where has the time gone?? The days she went to preschool, elementary school, middle school and now onto high school. What grades are your kids going into?
Back To School
I often worried/worry about her nutrition during the school year. Even when she was little I packed her school lunches. Made her after school snacks…. I like knowing what she is eating and drinking. Don’t you with your kids?
We made a commitment to each other this year. She will continue to take her lunches. Her after school snacks include a2 Milk®. I want to make sure she gets all the nutrients needed to help keep her healthy. You might remember when I talked about how we typically didn’t drink milk due to our tummy intolerance to it.
If you missed those posts you can see them here and here; a2 Milk® is real milk without the A1 protein. A1 protein is the culprit behind many people’s discomfort after drinking milk.
When we discovered a2 Milk® we gave it a try. It’s been a great find for us. a2 Milk® is the real replacement to the alternatives. If you’d like more information or resources click here to visit the Lactose Intolerance section of the a2 Milk® website.
