What snacks and treats should we bring for the children?

 

The key­word here is proteins.

The chil­dren that you will meet in our Children’s Homes are like chil­dren any­where, they love sweet treats! Most of the chil­dren will ask you for “bon bon” (candy) but we would much rather your treats for them be full of pro­teins and healthy fats and oils. Give them some­thing that their bod­ies need to grow healthy and strong.

Some treats that you may con­sider bring­ing with you:

  • Peanut But­ter (This is num­ber one on our list of high pro­tein treats.)
  • Peanuts
  • Almonds
  • Roasted Sun­flower Seeds
  • Beef Jerky
  • Health Food Bars (Choose ones that are low in sugar and high in nuts or fruits)
  • Peanut But­ter Crackers

Remem­ber that you are still giv­ing the chil­dren a treat and some­thing that they will enjoy.
