These crunchy fish bites are baked, not fried. That means you'll eat fewer calories, and the calories will have more of the "good" fats and no Trans fats—the very worst kind.
Because this recipe requires oven use, it also needs adult supervision.

We all need to eat more fish, because the Omega-3 fatty acids are so good for heart health. Older folks sometimes have a hard time making it a habit to eat fish several times a week, but if children learn this idea when they're young, it'll be as second-nature as drinking milk at dinnertime!
