Tired of hearing “Mo-om, what can I EAT??”  I feel like in the summer time this is ESPECIALLY bad – how is it kids eat 10X more food in the summer than during the school year??   Whatever it is, they’re suddenly digging around for snacks constantly.

 The good news is – this Kids Snack Station is going to make your life soooo much easier! 

Normally my kids want snacks three times a day:

• Morning – a granola bar because we’re running late, or to take for snack-time at school
• After school – the moment they walk in they’re about to DIE of hunger
• After Dinner

And in the summer it’s just – oh  – about every 45 minutes.

Every time they come to ask I have to go through all the options we have and where they’re located… guys it wears me OUT!  So I decided to put together this Kids’ Snack Station and we all LOVE it 🙂

Kids Snack Station

 

 

All you need to hold your snacks is a hanging shoe organizer with clear-front pockets like this one here. I like the extra big front pockets at the bottom for stashing chips and whatnot. You can hang your new kids snack station inside the pantry or even hang it outdoors in the shade for kids birthday and/or pool parties. Everyone will love how easy it is to grab a quick snack and get back to the fun.

I put tons of healthy snack options in our organizer – including nuts, fruit, popcorn, Clif bars, fruit cups, applesauce and beef jerky.  For some reason they seem more WAY excited to eat a banana or a fruit pouch when it comes out of a pocket (what’s up with that?).

 

 

Since I took these pictures, they’ve cleaned out a couple of my pockets and I’ve already refilled them with bags of pretzels and little snack-portions of trail mix.

It’s super easy to keep up with and it gives ME healthy options when I’m running out the door as well!
