Snack between meals - what do you give your toddlers?
DD is 2.6 and always wants to snack in between meals. But then she doesn't eat well from the prepared meal. I try to give her healthy snacks like a banana, weetabix or such. What do you think, what shall I do?

Toddlers love a snack! and that eating between meals thing really can have a knock on effect for sure. I guess all you can do is keep offering healthy stuff - a weetabix is quite filling, so i'd try some carrot sticks, raisins, cucumber, apples - probably what you're already doing? Maybe some dried cereal like Cheerios?
Thank you, yeah they love weetabix! The only problem it's too filling thefore she doesn't eat much afterwards. Cheerios i'll try thanks!
You could try to give her something just enough small. I give my DS some yoghurt or lately I found in Tesco Fruitickles which has Cars on, so he would go crazy for it. It also tastes good and has no added sugar, no gluten, artificial anything in it
Thx, I will definitely have a look. Does it exist in girly version as well? DD is not that much of a Cars fan
Yes, I think I saw it in Frozen as well. The Cars one is "wheel" shaped, sometimes DS even plays with it, he sticks it to some boxes or lego as a wheel. Then I can get some time off
I don't know what shape the Frozen one has though
We snack on bits like fruit/cucumber&carrot sticks/petits filous/cheese/organic baby snacks from stores like boots & Asda etc the only issue with them is they are a bit pricey! Xxx
