7 Fun And Nutritious Snack Ideas For Toddlers
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on PinterestEmail

Toddlers can be fussy about what they want to eat, which is why you must ensure that the food is nutritious yet fun. The food needs to be filling, appealing, and delicious for them to eat. Because of this, it is important to look for the best snack ideas.

Well, don’t worry because you have come to the right place. Here are the top seven fun and nutritious snack ideas that your toddler will love.

Key Notes

  • Make snacks an enjoyable process
  • Pair oatmeal with some fresh fruit
  • Create fun shapes out of snacks
  • Choose snacks low in sugar

1. Peanut Butter And Banana Toast

Peanut Butter

Peanut butter and banana toast are one of the easiest yet most fun snacks that you can make for your toddler.

All you have to do is put a light layer of peanut butter on the toast and top it with sliced bananas.

The best part is that it is a highly nutritious snack because it includes protein, fats, carbs, and much more.

On the other hand, it also has some amount of sugar that kids love. If you want to make this snack fun, you can cut the bread and banana in creative ways.

It will provide the kids with a visual experience, which will help them enjoy eating the snack.

2. Yoghurt Parfait

Yoghurt Parfait 2

Yoghurt is a great addition to a toddler’s diet because it has good bacteria that feed the gut and ensures a healthy digestive system.

We recommend that you take some whole milk yoghurt and top it with the following:

  • Berries
  • Cereal
  • Or some fruits

You can get as creative as you like with this because there are endless toppings that work well with yoghurt. Make sure that the snack is colourful to ensure that your child is interested in eating the parfait.

You can top it with your toddler’s favourite items so that they are more inclined to eat this snack. You can feed this once a day for a healthy and balanced snack.

3. Goldfish And Apples

Toddlers love eating goldfish because the shape is fun, and the taste is also great. However, it is important that you pair the goldfish with something that provides your child with more nutrition.

Because of this, sliced apples are the ideal choice that goes well with the taste of goldfish.

On the other hand, you can also add a small scoop of healthy fat, such as peanut butter or any other nut butter.

It will provide a healthy dose of fat along with the carbohydrates present in the apples. In the same way, you can also pair it with more snacks to ensure proper nutrition.

4. Peanut Butter And Jelly Sandwich

A peanut butter and jelly sandwich will always remain a classic snack to feed your toddlers. The snack is packed with fruit and low in sugar, which makes it an ideal choice. Your toddler can enjoy a sweet snack without worrying about the added sugar content in it.

Keep in mind to choose whole grain bread if you want to reap the most benefits out of this snack. White bread is easily available, but it is not the healthiest option for a toddler.

5. Oatmeal

Oatmeal

While many toddlers find oatmeal boring, you can build this habit in your toddler by making it fun. It is one of the most versatile snacks to which you can add anything. For example, you can grind chia and flax seeds to add a boost of nutrients to the oatmeal.

Besides that, you can top it with fruits or any other snack that your toddler loves. It is also an easy snack for the toddler to consume because oatmeal is soft and easy on the teeth. A fantastic addition to the oatmeal can be some maple syrup that your toddler will surely enjoy.

6. Vegetables And Hummus

Hummus

Hummus and vegetables are a good balance of protein and fats that your toddler needs.

Cut up some vegetables such as:

  • Carrots
  • Cucumbers
  • Celery
  • Peas

Then, you can dip the veggies in hummus and feed them to your toddler. Make sure that you use colourful vegetables, and you can even cut them into fun shapes for an enjoyable snack.

7. Cheese And Crackers

Finally, cheese and crackers are a staple that you can feed your child when they are in need of a snack. You can experiment with different kinds of cheese to see which one your toddler enjoys the most.

You can also choose between salty or plain crackers. Both of them can be enjoyable for your toddler.

Final Thoughts

These are the top seven fun and nutritious snack ideas for your toddler that they will enjoy. The key is to make eating an enjoyable process. Once you do this, they will enjoy all snacks you have to feed them.
