Kids need to eat more as a result of their growing bodies, even kids that are on a weight management diet.

Yogurt is a big favorite for everyone. It offers a great sweet taste, and you can contribute to yogurt, serve it frozen, or even flavor it so it tastes like pudding or cheesecake. The benefits of yogurt are many; it offers important probiotics that keep good bacteria in the digestive system and eliminates the bad. It offers important calcium for growing bones. But most importantly, for kids, it just tastes good.

Yogurt is lower in calorie content as compared to other snacking options like cake and ice cream, and it's easy for kids to grab anytime they want a good snack. If gelato is your nemesis, then fear not, because you can always buy frozen yogurt which tastes almost like traditional gelato. Yogurt can be eaten on its own or with fruit toppings like berries (especially blueberries,) as these can add texture and taste variety.

Speaking of fruits, this is one food category that you and your kids can enjoy to your heart's content without fear of having the kids gain weight. You would have to eat a boat load of fruit to fatten. Our stomachs are not that big so if you fill up on fruit for your snack requirements, you will feel full, but you won't have consumed a very high amount of calories. Thus, you won't fatten and can stick to your healthy eating plan without craving sweet foods.

Sorbets are a close cousin of ice cream. But the great thing is these don't have the added fat. That's because sorbets are just flavored ice. It is cold and sweet, like gelato, but since it's made mostly of ice with some sweet flavoring interfered, you probably won't gain weight. Best of all, you still get to eat something sweet. The common Popsicle is also a good choice as a low-calorie snack, as it's mostly constructed from frozen water with some flavoring so it's remarkably like a sorbet but in stick form.

If you like cakes but can't eat them as a result of their high fat and sugar content, you may should prepare a low fat, low sugar version of carrot cake. The carrots make this dessert a healthier variant of the traditional carrot cake. You can dodge the fat bullet by pouring in less oil into the cake batter. Since cakes have to be a tad moist upon cooking, just use non-fat buttermilk with some pineapple included the mix. Otherwise, this cake may be cooked like the traditional version.

Graham crackers make a great kid's snacks option on their own. You can add fresh fruit, a bit of yogurt, peanut butter and even a small dollop of ice cream to make this an even more nutritiously rich healthy kids snack. Graham crackers even make great refrigerator cakes. Just spread yogurt or low fat gelato and refrigerate.
