Why Kids Need Better Snacks
Let’s face it—most snacks marketed to kids are high in refined sugar, maida (refined flour), salt, and artificial preservatives. While they might be tasty and convenient, they often lack the essential nutrients growing children need.
That’s why it’s so important to choose snacks that fuel your child’s body and brain—not just fill their tummy
What Makes a Healthy Snack for Kids?
When choosing snacks for children, look for foods that are:
- Naturally sweet or savoury – without added sugars or artificial flavours
- Rich in nutrients – like iron, fibre, protein, and healthy fats
- Low in additives – no artificial colours, MSG, or preservatives
- Easy to digest – made with wholesome ingredients, not processed junk
- Kid-approved in taste – because if they won’t eat it, it won’t help!
