Healthy Christmas Snacks for Children

Celeste is normally grumpy after her afternoon nap. She likes to express herself with grunts and screams. Today was no exception. I carried her downstairs to show her what we’d been doing whilst she was asleep (making healthy snacks for the Christmas tree). She was yelling in my ear. As we turned the corner, her little eyes lit up. She stopped screaming, a big smile on her face. A little finger stretched out and pointed to the tree, adorned with baubles and cookies.

“Christmas!” she said.

Healthy Christmas Snacks that Your Children will Love.

Part of the excitement of Christmas is the build up. All those amazing lights, fantastic decorations and delicious food that we eat. They all have “Christmas” stamped all over them. They remind us that Christmas is just around the corner.

Why not try a Healthy Treat?

Kids love a Christmas treat but it’s easy to make them covered in sugar and how shall I put it, “not exactly healthy”. So I’ve asked all my blogging friends to help out with some healthy Christmas treats so that we can enjoy the fun of Christmas and still have healthy snacks.

Some are more healthy than others but I suspect that they are all more healthy than your average shop bought packet of cookies.
