With a 5 year old, you can make a variety of snacks that are both nutritious and delicious. For a sweet snack, try making banana ice cream: blend frozen banana slices with a splash of almond milk and a pinch of cinnamon. For something savory, try making mini pizzas with pre-made crusts, marinara sauce, and your favorite toppings like mozzarella cheese and olives. For a healthy snack, you can make trail mix with nuts, dried fruit, and dark chocolate chips. Finally, for a fun treat, make popcorn balls with popped popcorn, melted butter, and a favorite cereal. Enjoy!
