Activity #444: Fix a toddler snack

by Whitney

For those who have kids who eat real food, I wanted to share this web site: SnacksForToddlers.com.

For those who have a newborn in the house, you might find it convenient to go back to some basics for snacking. Cheese sticks, apple slices, dried fruit. These are all easy to put into ziploc bags in your diaper bag. You never know when hunger will strike but your brain will be too overwhelmed to figure out what to do. It is handy to keep snacks with you. It’s ok to treat yourself like a toddler :-)

I am too lazy to do even that, so I carry a Luna bar everywhere with me.

Asha has some favorite Trader Joe’s convenience foods on ParentHacks. I think most of them are great for toddlers.

Did you see this site: http://www.wholesometoddlerfood.com? How handy!
Also, for myself, I can eat grapes and mini carrots and for my four-toothed toddler, he gets quartered grapes and (seven-minute) boiled mini carrots cut into quarters lengthwise.
