Busy morning are rough but it’s even more important to make sure your kids are well prepared for school. For our active girls that’s making sure they have healthy and filling snacks to keep them fueled and ready to learn. We are happy to partner with Lance Snacks on this post.
playing at the playground brooklinOur girls like to bring snack, they have PE every day at their school so it’s important that they get in a snack before lunch. Staying fueled is about keeping your body healthy, and a healthy body is a healthy mind. If I want to make sure my girls are paying attention in class and not paying attention to being hungry I know they need to bring a snack.

That’s why Lance Snacks are a great choice for our busy kids. lance snacks crackersThe incredible filling between their sandwich crackers and cookies is a homemade peanut butter, which they recently enhanced to bring out more of that delicious roasted peanut flavor and just the right balance of sweet and salty. Their classic varieties, include ToastChee®, Toasty® and Nekot®, now all feature the best peanut butter. easy school snack ideaslance crackers peanut butterlance snacks lunchboxPlease visit the Lance website to learn more and to find the new Lance Quick Starts in a store near you.
