Ah you see the bananananas and Skippy and chocolate give a more sustained release of energy so the toddlers don’t crash and burn, they’re just happyhappyhappy! As long as they have freedom to move around, they can be channeled into good or at least harmless activity. Belt them into a carseat, however, and it fuels their frustration to keep the tantrum going all the way home.

I agree that it’s not unhealthy for kids like it would be for an older more sedentary person.
