Today, I’m sharing parenting advice on healthy apple snacks for kids. So, finding healthy snacks that kids will eat can be daunting. My granddaughter loves green apples. She will eat red apples, but Granny Smith green apples are her favorite for sure. Personally, I love Honey Crisp.
Unfortunately, kids can find food boring. As a result, I try to make fun food. I’m not an artistic person, so I look for healthy and happy foods that I can make without too trouble. Feel free to modify them, I do.
Here’s my Healthy Apple Snacks:
Pair these healthy apple snacks for kids with my A is for Apple activities. They’re a great way to entertain the kids this summer, and keep their education going.
Apple Crab – First, that apple crab is adorable. Unfortunately, there was no link associated with it. It doesn’t look difficult. Slice a red apple in half. Insert 2 chocolate chips or attach 2 raisins with peanut butter. Slice the other half of the apple to make the legs.
Apple Snail – Unfortunately, the apple snail didn’t have a link associated with it either. It does contain the directions on the Pinterest picture. It looks like the most difficult task will be the design on the apple.
Apple Ladybugs – Next, this apple is healthy and cute. Red apples, pretzel sticks, raisins and peanut butter will have you on your way to creating this healthy apple snacks.
Apple Boats – So, these boats are the perfect apple snacks for kids. Apples, peanut butter, a cheese sail and a Rice Krispies boat is are all you need to turn snack time into fun time.
Wise Ole Owl – Who wouldn’t want to eat this apple owl to help generate some brain power. Furthermore, the green apples, a pretzel rod, marshmallows, chocolate chips and either cheese or oranges for the feet and beak are the ingredients for this adorable snack.
Chocolate Covered Apples – So, these chocolate covered apples look yummy. You can cover them with nuts, sprinkles, or crushed candy. Use your imagine to make these healthy apple snacks for kids.
Apple Cookies – My granddaughter loves green apples and peanut butter, so they will go on my snack list. Add chocolate chips or raisins to the apples and peanut butter and you are good to go.
Ant Apple – Ant Apple I think? Whatever it is, it’s adorable. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a link for it. It doesn’t look difficult to make. Red and green apples for the body and wings and creativity for the eyes. Large candy eyes would be perfect and black licorice for the mouth.
Peanut Butter Frogs – So, what’s a summer vacation with an apple snack frog. Easy to make too, green apples, peanut butter, raisins and a slice of strawberry.
Ninja Turtle Apples – Fun and easy to make. My granddaughter is a big Ninja Turtle fan. Ralph who wears the red mask is her favorite. You can get the large candy eyes here (affiliate link). Walmart has a great selection of Betty rocker’s Fruit by the Foot in Different colors. I’ve seen purple, red, blue. Not sure about the orange.
