A. Sweet potato can be a great snack for your 4-year-old! It’s nutritious, rich in vitamins, and easy to prepare. Offering it 4 days a week can be a healthy option as long as it’s balanced with other foods to ensure variety in their diet. Here’s how you can serve sweet potatoes: Baked Sweet Potato Fries: Slice sweet potatoes into thin strips, drizzle with a little olive oil, and bake until crispy. Mashed Sweet Potato: Mash boiled sweet potato with a little butter and seasoning. Sweet Potato Chips: Thinly slice the sweet potato, bake or air fry until crispy. Sweet Potato Fritters: Grate sweet potato and mix with flour, egg, and a little seasoning, then fry into small patties. Other healthy snack ideas for a 4-year-old could include: Fruit Slices (apple, pear, or banana) with a small serving of peanut butter or yogurt for dipping. Veggie Sticks (carrot, cucumber, or bell pepper) with hummus or a yogurt dip. Mini Veggie Quesadillas: Whole wheat tortillas with cheese and finely chopped veggies, grilled and cut into small triangles. Oatmeal Energy Balls: Mix oats, honey, peanut butter, and a few chocolate chips to form small balls. Mini Muffins: Made with whole wheat flour, bananas, and a little honey or cinnamon. Rice Cakes with mashed avocado or cottage cheese topping. Offering a variety of healthy snacks throughout the week will ensure your child gets a range of nutrients. Make sure to balance the sweet potato with other options to keep their snacks interesting and nutritious!
