Prime time for snackers

Summer is prime time for snackers.

During the school year, kids graze through the kitchen before supper and evening activities, but now that school is out, snacking happens throughout the day.

But because traditional meals added structure to the day, this snackified approach to eating and drinking deepens the sense of a fluid summer schedule.

If your kids have already decentralized their food intake, check that available snacks are “nutrient dense” and protein-centric.
