Hi Fatima,

You already have a whole bunch of good snack options. I usually try to get my kids their daily intake of fruits at snack time so here is a list of things with fruits that i make for them:

1. Fruit Chat
2. Fruit salad with the instant vanilla pudding and jello
3. Graham crackers with cream cheese/flavored yogurt and fruit of your choice.
4. Fruit smoothies served with Chex mix or baked goldfish
5. Fruit turnovers( this you make with store bought puff pastry dough and fruits like apples, pears, strawberries, cherries etc..).Can make veggie turnovers/puffs the same way.
6. English muffin veg pizzas( this you have to just toast the english muffins in your toaster till crisp. top with veggies of your choice, add the pizza sauce and cheese and just microwave for 30 sec or until the cheese is just melted. )

I usually vary the fruits according to season .
