5 Healthy Snacks for Back to School

back to school plant-based snacks snacks for kids Aug 10, 2026

With the back-to-school rush happening for many families this week, I wanted to share some of my favorite healthy kid-friendly snacks!

These are all store-bought which is perfect for busy mornings when you’re packing lunch for your kids. I personally eat these myself so they can be great for the whole family too!

1.) Sweet Potato Sticks - Literally just sweet potatoes! A delicious and nutritious carb source. 

2.) Skinny Pop - If you need something crunchy, this will satisfy your craving. 

3.) The Only Bean Edamame Snacks - Great as a crunchy snack with extra protein. 

4.) Amara Oat Melts - They have different snacks for babies, toddlers, and older children, but you'll love these too! 

5.) The Froot Thief - This one is a fun fruit snack that picky eaters will love.
