[.ca] Healthy Treats and Super Snacks for Kids (ISBN 0809236281)

Too much fat!:
This book contains way too many recipes with high fat items. It also doesn't contain the nutritional info for the finished items, which makes it useless to me. If you're thinking "healthy" means moderate to low fat/calorie, then this isn't the book for you!

Should be called peanut butter snack book!:
I was hoping to find some help in the snack dept, as I have a limited variety of ideas for my partially food-allergic kid. He is allergic to a few items -- one happens to be peanuts, the other egg whites, but that's it. And unfortunately, 80% of the recipes in this book include peanut butter, nuts, or eggs! Nothing more original. I expected some of this knowing kids love PB, but most of the recipes are inclusive of one of the 2 allergens my son has, so this book was a huge disappointment. If you're child is allergy-free, this book is for you. Nevertheless, it's still peanut-butter heavy. Given the incidence of kids with allergies in today's world, it would be great if more cookbook authors gave a section/chapter of their work to allergy-free recipes for kids.

Fun, creative, nutritious, and easy recipes that kids love:
The recipes in this book have been wonderful for my home childcare business. Not only are they nutritious, delicous, quick and eye appealing, they are fun for the kids and they satisfy a variety of ages.
