Ideas for snack

leebi07

Hi,
I need some inspiration for some new afternoon snack ideas to send to preschool.  I usually send fruit for morning snack, lunch is usually a sandwich or leftovers along with a yogurt and a fruit or veggie.  I've been sending either hummus with veggies and crackers or cheese and crackers for afternoon snack, but would love other ideas.

some of the things my kids love: seeds, pumpkin or sunflower seeds the most, home made granola bars, tzatziki and carrot sticks or pita chips, popcorn, berries, cheese and crackers, nutella and banana quesadillas, and yogurt

Is the school nut free?  Right now his preschool provides snacks, but when he was in daycare, before one of his classmates developed an allergy things we used for snacks were:
*pretzels and peanut butter/sunbutter/soy butter
* string cheese
*apple sauce
*"trail mix" made from raisins, dried cranberries, nuts and sunflower seeds
*cereal or granola bars
* veggies and yogurt dip
* fresh fruit (apples, oranges, bananas, berries, kiwi)
* Freeze dried fruit
* pita with hummus
* cherry/grape tomatoes
* rice cakes
* dried fruit leather
