Whole grain crackers with natural peanut butter (light salt, no sugar, all fruit jelly if (s)he wants it sweeter)!.

Protein, healthy carbs, vegetables/fruit!. A turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread with a little mustard, raw veggies with a dressing they like, fresh fruit like an apple or orange!. If they must have chips make them whole grain sun chips or baked potato chips!. Just don't put a banana in their like my mom did the first three years of grade school!.
