I am looking for snack ideas for kids, that i can put on the table each day and they can pick at them. They seem to just want to pick all day, and i get sick of having to make things every 5 mins.

Dh suggested celery with peanut butter blink.gif lol, so anything ideas etc like thatt would be great.

Thanks
