Instructions: Kids have a case of the after-school munchies? Try these healthful, no-cook snacks. Theyre easy and fun to make, and depending on your childs age, require little or no adult supervision.

Snack Kebobs. Cut raw vegetables or fruit into chunks. Skewer them onto thin pretzel sticks. (Note: To prevent discoloration, dip apples, bananas, or pears in orange juice after theyre cut.)

Veggies with Dip. Cut celery, zucchini, cucumbers, or carrots into sticks or coins. Then dip them into prepared salsa or low fat dip.

Banana Pops. Peel a banana. Dip it in yogurt, then roll in crushed breakfast cereal, and freeze.

Fruit Shake-Ups. Put 1/2 cup low fat fruit yogurt and 1/2 cup cold fruit juice in a non-breakable, covered container. Make sure the lid is tight.

Then shake it up, and pour into a cup.

Pudding Shakes. Use the same technique for making fruit shake-ups, but instead mix 1/2 cup cold milk with 3 tablespoons of instant pudding.

Sandwich Cut-Outs. Using cookie cutters with fun shapes, like dinosaurs, stars, and hearts, cut slices of cheese, meat, and whole-grain bread. Then put them together to make fun sandwiches. Eat the edges, too.

Peanut Butter Balls. Mix peanut butter and bran or corn flakes in a bowl.

Shape them into balls with clean hands. Then roll them in crushed graham crackers.

Ice Cream-Wiches. Put a small scoop of ice cream or frozen yogurt between two oatmeal cookies or frozen waffles. Make a batch of these sandwiches ahead, and freeze them.

Ants on a Log. Fill celery with peanut butter or cream cheese. Arrange raisins along the top.
