4th of July weekend is here!  Ready to celebrate with delicious BBQ foods and fireworks tomorrow night?  Here are a few snack ideas to help make your 4th of July party healthy for kids and their teeth!

Healthy 4th of July Party Snacks:

• Turkey Burger Sliders - BBQ foods are perfect for any 4th of July party.  Sliders are a quick and easy meal that is kid-sized!  Add cheese to your turkey burger to give your teeth some calcium!
• Watermelon & Feta Flag - Make a patriotic flag out of watermelon, feta and blueberries!  Line up the watermelon and feta into red and white stripes and have a bowl of blueberries in the corner for the stars.  You can also replace the watermelon with strawberries or another red, healthy fruit.  Check out the recipe here.
• Red, White & Blueberry Yogurt Pops - For a healthy twist on a cool dessert, make popsicles from vanilla flavored Greek yogurt!  Add blueberries and raspberries for a fruity snack.  The complete recipe can be found here.
