What does your Preschooler Like to Eat?

Question

Just curious on what other children like to snack on, besides obvious fruits and vegetables.

Answer 1

Besides all the obvious stuff, like Goldfish, here are some creative ones:

Edamame (soybeans)

Cooked shrimp (like for shrimp cocktail)

Cucumber slices

Imitation crab meat

Frozen peas (still frozen...really)

Black olives

Canned baby corn

Answer 2

My kid will eat anything pretty much. She loves rice of any kind, mac and cheese, watermelon, cheerios, cottage cheese, applesauce.  

Answer 3

goldfish crackers

string cheese

pb & j sandwiches

yogurt

ice cream

Answer 4

My 4 year old likes hot dogs for dinner. Him and my 6 year old's favorite vegetable is peas. They love Fruit Snacks but I keep them from eating them regularly and use them as a reward. Go-Gurt Tubes are a crowd pleaser. My kid's will even eat a plain slice of cheese, and my 6 year old loves milk. They like applesauce too.  

Answer 5

For snacks my kids love fruit slices, dry cereal, bread and butter (especially will a tiny bit of cinnamon sugar), frozen peas, frozen juice popsicles, crackers, cheese sticks, raisins, and granola bars.

Answer 6

carrots

cheese and cheesy flavour crisps

sandwiches

cucumber sticks

raisins

crumpets

crackers

yoghurt

boy, nearly 5. those are his favourites

Answer 7

My 16 month old son's favorite for the last few months has been a product called corn thins, which are like rice cakes, but made of corn, from Whole Foods and local health food stores called Henry's and Jimbo's.  If I'm home, I spread them with hummus.  

He loves breakfast cereal--Corn Chex, Rice Chex, Cheerios and Shredded Oats.

The Gerber freeze-dried apples work.

Baby-bel cheese broken into small pieces.  He'll eat other cheese too, but Baby-Bel is the favorite.
