Sweet Life with Mary

For Mary's Kindergarten session in the morning, I have to pack a snack.

From Mrs. Adams' "Kindergarten Kapers" sheet...

Snacks: Please be sure to send your child with a healthy daily snack. NO NUTS DUE TO ALLERGIES! Also children may bring a water bottle with their name on it, but no juices are allowed due to messes and attraction from bees on the playground. Children staying all day for KE need 2 snacks daily.

What is a healthy snack?
Chips? Cookies? Yogurt candies? At the grocery stores, one would find all these "convenient" packs. I did buy some Cheetos and Doritos that were on sale in the little snack packs. Couldn't resist but I am not packing one in her bag everyday.
Yesterday, I had 6 "fun nuggets" (chicken nuggets that are dinosaur-shaped that I have fully cooked in the over the previous night and stored in a container in the fridge- by the time she eats them at snack time 3 hours later, they would be room temperature or close to it.), melon chunks and water.


Nuggets! That is a lunch item, not snack!
Made her popular with her new friends, everybody wanted her chicken nuggets!
Today, she is taking "Lunchables"


Minus the juice...
