How to Feed Your Kids Fast, Healthy Foods at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom

A day at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom can be hectic, and kids get hungry! Once those bellies start rumbling, it's easy to give into the ice creams, hot dogs, cookies, cakes and fried foods theme parks are known for. Believe it or not, it is possible to find fast, healthy snacks for your kids at Walt Disney World, you just have to know where to look.

Frozen Treats:

Most times of the year, Orlando, Florida is baking hot and those shakes and ice creams start to look like gifts from heaven! My family has a rule of only one Mickey's Premium Ice Cream Bar per vacation, not only for the sake of my kids but also my own waistline! We've usually filled our quota by our first or second day at Walt Disney World, but once noon hits in the Magic Kingdom we're all dreaming of something cold and sweet again.

Don't worry, the Magic Kingdom is full of lower fat and sugar options for just such an emergency. Auntie Gravity's Goodies in Tomorrowland offers great fruit smoothies in various flavors (strawberry banana, orange pineapple and tropical fruit) for $3.99. Although the sugar content is not spectacular, all the smoothies are made with low fat yogurt for that real ice cream feel. Sunshine Tree Terrace in Adventureland offers an Orange Slush for $3.29, which is just frozen orange juice, no fat to worry about at all. And, it's not a real Florida vacation, Walt Disney World or not, if you don't have at least one glass of orange juice Our favorite healthy frozen treat surprisingly comes from the Walt Disney World Ice Cream Carts, which you can find peppered all over the Magic Kingdom. Among the other treats they sell is the sugar free strawberry bar for $2.50. It's cold, it's sweet, it's convenient and it's much healthier than other ice cream options. Best of all, another hour or so walking around the Magic Kingdom and you've just about burned it off!
