Choosing the right grains for your child’s snacks can make all the difference in their energy, growth, and focus at school. At Kooblan, we use wholesome oats and wheat as key ingredients in our nut-free snack bars—because these time-tested grains offer unbeatable nutrition, taste, and satisfaction for Canadian kids.
Why Oats and Wheat Are Smart Snack Choices
Whole Grains for Growing Kids: Oats and wheat are rich sources of complex carbohydrates, which fuel your child’s active days and support steady energy without sugar crashes.
Packed With Fiber: Both grains are naturally high in fiber, supporting healthy digestion, stable blood sugar, and keeping kids full and focused longer.
Essential Vitamins & Minerals: Oats and wheat deliver B vitamins, iron, magnesium, and zinc—nutrients needed for brain power, strong bones, and immune function.
Gentle on Sensitive Tummies: Both are well tolerated by most kids and are a gentle source of nourishment, especially when part of a balanced, nut-free snack bar.
