Answer 4

I feed my kids cut up fruit, apples, pears in thin slices so they're easy to eat, blueberries, cut up grapes, strawberries and bananas are their favorites.  They also like pretzels, raisins, chewy granola bars, goldfish crackers, veggie chips, goldfish crackers, and smoothies made with milk, fruit and yogurt in the blender.

BTW, my kids are almost 2 so any of these things would probably be fine for your kids too.  Just make sure you always keep an eye on them when they're eating just in case they gag.

Answer 5

I used to make my son a toddler trail mix with cheerios (multigrain are good for this), grips mini cheese crackers (they are smaller than a pencil eraser), raisins, and sometimes a few mini M&Ms. you can switch it out and maybe do small bits of dried tropical fruits instead of raisins and chex ceral instead of cheerios.

what about mini ritz crackers and small bits of diced lunchmeat and/or cheese? lunchables makes a lunchables Jr version with diced meat, crackers, and sliced cheese. it is just the right size for that age and come in 2-packs for like $2.30  

Answer 6

Cheese cubes, yogurt, granola bars, miniature muffins, fruit, ants on a log (cut celery into 2-3 in pieces, fill with pnut butter, top w/chocolate chips or raisins).  Just make sure that the solid items are bite sized cut so that the children will not choke.

My two year old loves yogurt and cottage cheese, cheese, and just about any kind of fruit out there.  I use a melon baller for any type of melons and mangos.  I use mini cookie cutters on kiwi, cheese, lunch meat and bread.  I make mini snadwiches the same way.  

Answer 7

My kids favorites (aged 5 & 7 but these have been their faves for years): baby carrots, sliced apples, yogurt cup or Gogurt, pretzels... and then there's the usual c**p (cookies, crackers, fruit rollups).

Answer 8

fruit snacks, carrots, raisins, grapes,  

Answer 9

My daughter is almost 2 and she loves grapes. Cut then in half of course. And you could try string cheese.

Answer 10

try and make them healthy.

you can also buy little snacks in the supermarket.

Answer 11
