Toddler Snack Ideas That Are Quick And Easy
Toddler snacks seem to always stump me. Maybe because I get so caught up in the day and then all of a sudden the kids are hungry. To stay ahead of the game and be ready for those crazy moments I have created this list of toddler snacks (that are just as good for adults too). So hopefully this list will make your toddler snack time quick and easy so life will keep moving smoothly.
Find A Rhythm
Keeping track of the day makes a huge difference for us. If your kids know when to expect a snack and you are prepared as well, it will help you keep your sanity and your kids from throwing a fit. Here is a routine that has helped us keep things a little more together.
Toddler Snacks – Fruits and Veggies
- Apple slices with cheese or peanut butter
- Veggies-cucumbers, bell peppers, carrots, baby tomatoes, avocado, olives
- Freeze-dried fruit or yogurt
- Apple sauce
- Pears and cottage cheese
- Fruit leather
- Fruit- Orange slices, cantaloupe slices, grapes, strawberries, blueberries, pears, honeydew, watermelon… the list could go on and on.
- Banana with peanut butter
- Dried fruit and nuts
- Peanut butter and banana roll up- Spread peanut butter on tortilla, put banana on top and roll it up and then cut into slices.
Toddler Snacks – Grains, Cheese, Dairy, And Everything Else
- Rice cakes- plain or with peanut butter and bananas on top.
