Can the kids get their own snacks?

Snack Stash

Designate a place for snacks in your kitchen, such as a drawer or shelf that is accessible for young children. Keep it stocked with healthy snacks such as dry cereals, breakfast bars, graham crackers, and peanut butter. You can also designate a drawer in your refrigerator for fresh fruits, boxed juice drinks, already-washed fruit, or cheese sticks. Store plastic cups, bowls, and plates for kids to use on shelves they can reach and let them help themselves.
