Best Snack Ideas for Preschool

Not sure what to bring for snack? 

Preschoolers get excited when it is their turn to bring snack! Let them be involved in planning what to bring on their day!

If possible, be creative and bring something that goes along with the letter of the week. We love to use snack time to practice our math skills. Feel free to bring snacks that we can count, sort, estimate, group, and more! 

Please refer to the weekly update email for snack assignments and the amount of children you will provide snack for.

Please remember that we are a NUT FREE school and you should never bring anything that contains nuts!
