Overview

Raise a Smart Snacker! Does your child snack all day? Raid the pantry when he gets home from school? Sneak snacks when you're not looking? Love to eat sweets and treats? Healthy snacking can be a daily discussion (or battle!) between parents and their kids. Parents emphasize healthy snack food and kids just want what tastes good-often sweet, salty or fatty foods. If you have a love-hate relationship with kid snacks, you're not alone. In The Smart Mom's Guide to Healthy Snacking, pediatric dietitian Jill Castle lays out the acronym SNACK SMART to outline a fail-proof strategy to teach your child healthy snacking habits and empower him to be a smart snacker. This book will teach you how to: - Set up a routine with snacking, from where and when, to what foods to serve - Choose snack foods, emphasizing nutritious options while including room for sweets and treats - Encourage mindful eating and appetite awareness with snacking - Make fast and healthy yummy snacks for kids that spark curiosity and fun - Monitor snacking without being a food cop - Respond to challenges around snacking like sneak snacking, overeating and unhealthy food choices The Smart Mom's Guide to Healthy Snacking highlights healthy snack food ideas, on-the-go snack combinations, and recipes for healthy snacks. Take back the snack, lead your child to nutritious options, and teach healthy snacking habits!

Just like the smart moms guide to starting solids I loved this information. Allison Mayo I loved the book! As a mom to a toddler, and a dietitian myself, I think it's very informative and great resource. I love how Jill says that monitoring needs to be an inside job. It was truly a great and informative book that I've already used with my toddler! Jessica White I really enjoyed the content. Full of practical expertise and evidence-based practices to help families smartly feed their children in our busy world. Whitney Alfaro The Smart Mom's Guide is exactly what it intends to be. A map for mom's to unlock the secret of snacking and how to use it as a time to add in more nutritious foods along with fun foods. Ilana Buchbinder
