The Science of Parenting Tip of the Week: Three Tips When Planning a Snack

1. Add some protein (nuts, peanut butter, dairy) to your snack to keep kids full and satisfied

2. Put your snack on a plate or in a bowl! If you eat directly from the bag or box, you will end up eating more.

3. Practice mindful eating. Eat snacks in a quiet space where you can focus on eating. Take time to taste and enjoy your food.
