Whether the kids are home from school for the summer, it's a rainy afternoon, or you'd like to teach the children how to make their own after-school snacks, our collection of kid-friendly recipes is here to help.

Most of these recipes use fewer than six ingredients, making them easy to whip up. Even if you don't have kids running around, these recipes can make the perfect snack for anyone looking for a quick pick-me-up.
