Help! Snack Ideas?

  


Hey mamas, I am in need of some good, healthy snack options for kids.  Because I have a busy toddler, most of her food is eaten "on the go,"{Think: snack cup} with very little eating actually happening at meal-time.  We have some favorites, but am looking for some new ideas!  Here are some of Maya's current faves: Goldfish crackers, shredded mozzarella cheese (she refuses string cheese which would be MUCH less messy, ugh!) Crispix cereal, {sometimes} craisins, fresh berries of any kind, pretzels, apple slices, diced grapes, kiwi, bananas, organic fruit strips {super messy}, natural applesauce, organic yogurt.  Because she is an independent toddler, her food interests change daily so I am constantly looking for new healthy snacks to strike her interest and fill her with some nutrients at the same time!  What is your little one's favorite snack?

Hazel LOVES snacking on tortillas - regular or whole wheat! I just rip off a little piece and it's really not too messy and lasts a while. This works really well on the go or just when we're hanging out/cooking in the kitchen. Hazel also loves chomping on fresh cut veggies - like peppers of any color or cucumbers. She doesn't consume much of it, but it's not too messy, gives her the experience/taste of veggies, and she's absorbing some of the nutrients I'm sure :). Good luck!
