Healthy kid snacks for after school!

 Could you give me some ideas on what could be healthy kid snacks? I was thinking of making my child pancakes with chocolate syrup, little cheese cubes with fruit pieces on a stick, sautéed vegetables wrapped into a roll or a tasty smoothie for when he comes back from school and wants something to munch on. My kids can really eat a lot they feel very hungry all the time. I could also have salsa with some minced meat sauce. What else healthy that they would eat and relish every bit of the food item.
