Toddler Snacks

Audrey is an eating machine, guys! She is eating pretty much everything and she absolutely loves breakfast. But the one thing she loves more than breakfast- snacks! At the store, church, school pick-up line, wherever we are, Audrey wants a snack. I love finding new snacks for her to try and I especially love when that snack can be eaten on the go.

I have to admit, even with Audrey being my third baby, at first I just wasn’t sure what to give her for snacks. But after a couple of trips to the grocery store to walk the aisles, I now have a better idea of what to give her.  So today I wanted to share with you some of our favorite toddler snacks.

TODDLER SNACKS

CRUNCHY SNACKS

• Graham crackers
• Annie’s Bunnies or Goldfish
• Animal Crackers
• Cheerios
• Baked Snap Peas
• Veggie Straws

PROTEIN

• Hard-Boiled Egg: We love this Egg Cooker for making the most perfect hard-boiled eggs.
• Peanut Butter I love these to-go containers of peanut butter for when we are out and about. They are perfect for dipping apple slices or crackers into or just eating off a spoon. 
• String or Cubed Cheese
• Turkey and Cheese Roll-Ups
• Cubed Chicken
• Hummus- Packed in to-go cups and eaten with sliced veggies or crackers.
• Yogurt- Single-serve tubes or pouches are great and super convenient but they are more expensive. You can use a small to-go container, instead.

FRUIT & VEGGIES

• Grapes- Grapes should be quartered for toddlers. I am tempted to grab this tool to make quartering faster!
• Berries
• Apples- I thinly slice and peel apples for Audrey but for older toddlers, you can cut them into bigger chunks.
• Applesauce Pouches
• Melon Cubes or Balls
• Dried Fruit
• Cherry Tomatoes
• Carrot Sticks
• Cucumbers- Audrey likes to eat them in sticks or you could slice them, too.

I like to spend a little bit of time every couple of days packing our snack containers. I’ll wash and cut up enough fruit and vegetables for a few days, and pack them into our favorite snack containers. Having the snacks prepped and ready to go is so helpful in getting us out of the door.

CONTAINERS & CUPS WE LOVE

• Sistema Divided Containers
• Munchkin Snack Cup
• Contigo Water Bottle
• OXO Tot Food Containers

I hope this post was helpful! Share with me some of your favorite toddler snacks. Would you guys like to see some toddler meal suggestions, too? Let me know and I can put a post together.
