ParentEdge|November - December 2020
With the current pandemic that has taken over the world, the phenomenon of binge eating is at an all time high. A great way to combat this problem is to find snack options that are both healthy and tasty. To save you some trouble, here is a list of snacks that will not just satiate your children’s taste buds but also supply their bodies with healthy nutrients.
Healthy Snacks For Children

Mumum’s Natural Fruit Snack

This all-natural snack company was conceived out of a few parents’ efforts to feed their children healthy, real, yet fun food. As the founders could not find anything that met their expectations, they decided to take matters into their own hands, resulting in the birth of the Mumum Co. One of their best-selling products are the Mighty Melties that come in mango, strawberry and banana flavours. They are made from 100% natural fruits that have been made into freeze-dried crunchy pieces that melt in the mouth. Furthermore, they also have zero added sugar, zero added salt and zero artificial colours!

Rine Bars

The organisation behind Rine Bars is an innovative company whose goal is to provide affordable snack bars that are not just healthy, but delicious as well. The bars come in a wide variety of flavours that include “Blueberry Bolt”, “Peanut Butter Crunch” and my personal favourite, “Nutty Strawberry”. In addition, all of their products have zero added sugar and are rich in essential nutrients that will keep your children energised the entire day.
