My lovely daughter told me recently that she was stumped by her kid's classroom treat rules. No more cupcakes, no cookies, no candy. All that is well and good - she was all for healthy eating and wanted help brainstorming what to make when it was her turn to bring snacks for the class. Have you come up with any creative treats for your kids' classroom? These are just a few ideas puled from Internet and I'd love to hear yours!
• 1 Blood Orange Jelly - Little jellies, right in the orange peels, with no added sugar. Just jellify the orange juice and pour it back in. Kids love these!
• 2 Oranges and Dates - Cut dates up into little pieces and serve them with orange slices. Not exactly low-sugar, but it's natural!
• 3 Fruit-on-the-Bottom Yogurt Cups - What about fruit-on-the-bottom yogurt cups, made with fruit, organic jam or berries? Cute and easy.
• 4 4-Ingredient Banana Oat Bars - These chewy banana bars are easy and fast, and they use only the banana for sweetness
Chocolate Decadence? Peanut Butter Crunch? Lemon Cranberry? There's no wrong answer. Because whichever one you pull out of the box has a healthy protein to keep kid feeling full. And that helps make sticking to the kids' classroom rules. What else have you taken to the kids' classroom lately?

Positive affirmation for the day: Whenever a sugar craving hits, I take inventory
of my life and look at what areas need a little sweetness.
