Kids and snacks. They just go together. You know they’ll want something to eat between meals. So what do you feed them? Conventional couponing might help us snag popular snack foods with cents off. But clean couponing means getting the most value. FlourSackMama.com recently asked Dr. Alan Greene for some kids’ snack food tips. The popular pediatrician hosts a regular Twitter chat called Let’s Talk Kids’ Health! Here’s some of what he had to say:

Good question! RT @FlourSackMama: @DrGreene If you could pick 3 perfect snack foods for kids 3+ to share, what would they be? #LTKH

.@FlourSackMama Great question! I’d pick a fruit,veggie, and probably a legume #LTKH For the fruit maybe berries or grapes #LTKH — Alan Greene (@DrGreene) January 21, 2014
.@FlourSackMama For the veggie, I love snap peas and they are a hit in our office. And maybe hummus to round it out #LTKH — Alan Greene (@DrGreene) January 21, 2014
@DrGreene @MsGreene When parents feel they can’t afford all best quality foods for kids, what one or two places could they begin with? #LTKH

.@FlourSackMama When parents can’t afford all best quality foods? Start in produce aisle w/ what is in season or on sale #LTKH

Yes! RT @ProWorkingMom: @DrGreene @FlourSackMama And then to frozen veggies & fruits aisle. Usually very economical option #LTKH
