Summer vacation is the perfect time to get out and about together. Whether you're traveling by car or flying, snacks are essential on the go. Children regularly need something nutritious to keep their energy levels up—especially during long drives or flights. A healthy snack keeps them satisfied and prevents nagging. Abroad, children are often picky about uncooked food, so packing something familiar and nutritious is especially helpful.

🌞 Handy snacks for on the go

– Fresh pieces of fruit such as apples, grapes or banana: deliciously sweet and full of vitamins
– Nuts and raisins (for older children) for a healthy energy boost
– Whole wheat crackers or rice cakes for a light, crunchy snack
– Vegetable sticks such as carrot or cucumber for a fresh bite
– Snack vegetables in containers: easy to take with you and healthy

However, many of these snacks have a limited shelf life and can become less fresh more quickly on hot days.

🌞 Also useful: something liquid that is ready quickly
