Veggies and Fruits
Veggies and fruits are a great snack option for school. Packed with vitamins and minerals, they are an excellent source of energy and fuel for the day. Some easy, healthy snacks to pack include carrot sticks, celery sticks, apples, oranges, and bananas.
Yogurt and Cheese
Yogurt and cheese are great sources of protein and calcium. Pack individual servings of plain Greek yogurt or regular yogurt, string cheese, or cubes of cheese. Add some nuts and dried fruit for extra nutrition and flavor.
Trail Mix and Granola
Trail mix and granola are a great snack for school. Mix together some nuts, dried fruit, and granola for a nutritious and filling snack. For an extra boost of energy, add some dark chocolate chips or dried cranberries.
Whole Grain Crackers and Pretzels
Whole grain crackers and pretzels are a good source of fiber and provide energy to get through the school day. Pair some crackers or pretzels with a piece of string cheese or a little nut butter for a tasty snack.
Smoothies and Shakes
Smoothies and shakes are a great way to get some important nutrients into your body. Blend up some yogurt, fruit, and a little honey for a nutritious smoothie or shake. These can be made ahead of time and taken to school for an easy and healthy snack.

When looking for healthy snacks for school, it is important to focus on options that are high in nutrition and low in processed sugar. A good idea is to pack snacks that contain complex carbohydrates, such as whole-grain crackers, oatmeal, or a small sandwich on whole-wheat bread. Vegetables and fruits are also great additions, such as carrots and celery sticks, or a piece of fresh fruit. Nuts and seeds are an excellent source of protein and healthy fats, and can be added to a small container of yogurt or cereal for a balanced snack.

A healthy snack for school can be as simple as an apple or carrot sticks, or as creative as a trail mix. If you have access to a refrigerator, you could also pack a yogurt, hummus and vegetable wrap, or a turkey and cheese wrap. A filling snack like this will provide you with the necessary energy to stay focused throughout the day. Additionally, you could make a protein smoothie or a banana-almond butter snack. These snacks are easy to prepare and require minimal ingredients. Lastly, try to include a few servings of whole grains, such as whole-grain crackers or oatmeal, for a balanced snack that will keep you energized without the crash.
