=SNACKS=

In our room, snacks are allowed. HOWEVER, they must fit some specific criteria.
 * 1) Healthy food ONLY (we will come up with a list of acceptable foods together)
 * 2) Nothing messy or sticky (i.e. while yogurt is packed with nutrition, if it spills it makes a mess.)
 * 3) No junk food allowed (chips, candy, cookies, doughnuts, etc. will not be allowed.)
 * 4) //Water ONLY// beverage rule (If it spills, it's no problem!)
