Parents taking the family on a timeshare vacation to Walt Disney World are finding more and more healthy-food options for the kids.
Disney’s on-going program to provide nutritional options at WDW includes The Mickey Check, which helps you find the best nutritional options for meals.
And now Disney has launched “Better for You Goodies,” a guide to finding snacks in all four theme parks of WDW that are delicious, but nutritious, too.
Below is just a sampling of nutritious snacks and where you can find them:
