When fresh fruits and veggies and whole foods aren’t on hand or just aren’t handy for your kid’s tastes, try these new and healthier snack options that are sure to be your new go-tos. We love these nutritious and delicious summer snacks for kids of all ages for a super snack for lunch, after school, at home, on-the-go, and all the places you’ll go!

Chloe’s pops are the perfect cool treat for a hot day! Parents will love their healthy, better-for-you options and kids love getting these popsicle treats in many delicious flavors. Chloe’s recently launched its first No-Sugar Added Strawberry Pop and it passed our taste test with flying colors. Parents will love that they are made with simple, all-natural ingredients, looking to address the void in the market for no-sugar frozen treats made without artificial substitutes. Kids also love Chloe’s Oatmilk Pops in the non-dairy frozen novelty space and the three new varieties of their Oatmilk Pops – especially the Cookies and Cream. They won’t be able to get enough of these fun frozen treats!

GoGo squeeZ is a fan favorite for their portable pouches packed with flavor and they just introduced the first plant-based pudding in a pouch and it is delectable!

The GoGo squeeze AlmondBlend pudding has an admirable nutrition profile while still being a tasty snack that will delight kids and leave families feeling good about their snack choice. Parents will also love that the innovative pudding has 5 grams of protein per serving, 30% less sugar compared to traditional dairy pudding, and requires no refrigeration.
