Kids are more likely to eat what they help create. Let them pick their favorite dried fruits and assist in assembling their lunchbox. You can even make a weekly snack station at home with small containers of dried fruits, nuts, and other healthy treats.

Healthy Snack Can Be Fun!
Kids eat with their eyes first—so make it colorful, and let them help pick their favorite fruits for the week. You can even prepare little snack bags ahead of time using Tasty Vita mixed dried fruit packs, making lunch prep quick and easy on busy mornings.
