safe snacks for children with allergies

For children with allergies, the safest snacks are the ones that you, the parent, prepare for them. There are simply too many unknowns if you allow your child to safely eat commercial foods or foods prepared by other parents unsupervised.

To ensure that your children with allergies have safe snacks, you should always insist that he or she never eats a food until you have checked the ingredients on the label. If a food product has no label or if it is unreadable, you definitely do not want  your children eating that food.

Further complicating the issue is some studies that suggest that children with food allergies sometimes accidentally ingest them through the skin though incidental contact.

To summarize, you the parent are the only person that can make sure that your child has safe snacks by personally packing them yourself.
