Especially on long trips, it is important to have plenty of healthy, nutritious snacks on hand for your kids. Pack fruits and vegetables like celery and carrot sticks, grapes, orange and/or apple slices. Okay, that's the ideal. But kids like more fun snacks, too. Offer items like licorice, pretzel rods, popcorn, dried fruits, and cookies. All these snacks are safe to eat in moving vehicles, although you should keep an eye on the children as they eat to be sure they don't choke on the drier items. Peanuts, gum, or small chewable items should not be offered as they are more easily choked on.
