Toddlers just love bite size snacks.
They are so easy to handle and seemingly made just for them. I have
listed a few of these healthy snacks for toddlers. They are as
follows:
1. Watermelon
I just love watermelon. The watermelon
can be cut into quarters and is a healthy snack for toddlers.
Watermelon is loaded with water. In addition, it is quite
nutritional for you and your toddler. This can also be done with
cantaloupe as well and cantaloupe is packed full of vitamins.

2. Teddy Grahms Trail Mix
Elle talks about this Trail Mix
mentioning that it is something she would prepare when it was her
turn to bring snacks to her son's preschool. This is her personal
recipe which can be found
Teddy Grahm Trail Mix
The ingredients include teddy grahams, mini pretzels, m and m's, yogurt covered raisins, and raisinets. These ingredients sound really good. I will have to make this and let you know what I think.

3. Petite Carrots
These small mini-carrots are just the
right size for a toddler's hand. In fact, I like them much better
than the larger carrots.
4. Animal Crackers
Have you given your toddler any animal
crackers recently? The great thing about them is that besides the
fact that they taste good, they are just the right size for your
toddler to handle and to eat. This is also a great teachable time to teach your toddler the names of different animals that are found in the form of a cracker.
5. Trix Cereal
You may have a favorite cereal that you
prefer. I recall putting trix dry cereal in a small sandwich bag for
my toddlers. This was great to take with me when traveling to the
store with toddlers. Usually if toddlers are snacking, they are
happy, and you avoid a lot of grocery store drama. Toddlers may get
hungry while you are shopping with toddler. I also, would bring a
bag to church, which would help my toddler make it through the
service.
6. Mini-hot dogs
Since a hot dog is more than a handful
for a toddler, what about a mini hot dog. You can purchase the mini
ball park hots dogs and just cut a full hot dog bun in half. This
idea is found at

7. Frozen Snack bites
For those of you that have babies, you
might want to try frozen snack bites made from baby food. Hanna
talks about this in the article:
Turn Baby Food into Bite-Size Frozen Snacks for Babies and Toddlers
She emphasizes that she put a spoonful of baby food on parchment paper and froze it over night. In addition, she states she used blueberry applesauce and sweet potato baby food. This frozen recipe is good for teething babies.

8. Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
Now this is one of my favorites. The
grilled cheese sandwiches can be cut into fourths, which is about the
right size for a toddler to handle. This is nutritional as well as
tasty. What are your healthy snacks that you give to your toddler?
