Answer: yogurt and banana oat cookies

Explanation: yogurt is a good source of protein and is high in calcium for healthy bones and some contain some helpful bacteria for the kids digestive system while banana oat cookies get their sweetness from mashed banana instead of refined sugar which is prone to causing diabetes.
