Smart Swaps for Healthier Choices

Tip: Small swaps can make a big difference:

• Swap white bread for wholegrain

• Swap crisps for popcorn, veggie sticks, or rice cakes

• Swap sugary drinks for water or milk

• Swap chocolate bars for fruit, yogurt, or homemade snacks

Why it matters:

These swaps reduce sugar and salt intake while increasing fibre and vitamins. Fibre helps digestion and keeps children feeling fuller for longer.

Lunchbox idea:

Cheese sandwich on wholemeal bread + carrot sticks + homemade oat bar + water
