After school snacks.

Like most kids, Frankie is famished when I pick him up from day care. He's had a long day of songs and play, art and lessons. I'm  Fortunate enough that Frankie's day care provides snacks and breakfast. In have to provide lunch.  i always pack extra snacks because my son is picky and sometimes he wants what all the kids are having and other times he's content with his blueberries, yogurt and organic squeeze pouches. 

For after school I pack something he can munch on in the car. It's usually Goldfish or a squeeze pouch. I always pack extra water that I store in my lunch bag and keep that in the fridge at work its nice and cod by the time I make my way back from DTLA. 

I clean his hands and his face and he eats his goldfish all up "talking" about his day and pointing out Cars or Birds on our way home.

Today when I picked him up he was extra dirty! He has sand in his shoes and dirt on his hands. He was sweaty; but happy! 

Other on the go snacks:

Pretzels (unsalted)
