8 Easy Snack Ideas for Toddlers and Baby-Led Weani

8 Easy Snack Ideas for Toddlers and Baby-Led Weaning 👶🏻🖐🏼⁠
Recipes are linked in my bio ❤️⁠
⁠
As your baby reaches 1 year of age, you will start introducing snacks between meals. This is important as your baby's nutrition needs are very high. Just think how much they grow from baby to young child! It's so impressive!⁠
⁠
Consider offering snacks that are as nutrient-rich as possible. ⁠
⁠
Some examples; ⁠
⁠
🍞 If you give your toddler a slice of toast (like my 2 Ingredient Bread Rolls), spread a little peanut or sunflower butter over for protein and fat then top with sliced strawberries 🍓⁠
⁠
🥛 Serve Greek yogurt which is high in protein, with a topping. I love finely ground seeds with toasted oats (it's like a quick easy granola), then add some berries.⁠
⁠
🍠 Roasted sweet potato spears are AMAZING with peanut butter and banana! Honestly trust me! The peanut butter again adds a little fat and protein and the banana is a great source of potassium. So not just a yummy nutritious sweet potato. ⁠
⁠
👉 Remember to keep snack sizes reasonable. If the snacks are too big your little one won't eat their main meals. ⁠
⁠
👉 Timing is also key to serving snacks. Too close to mealtimes and your little one may not be hungry enough for the meal. Here's an example of how I spaced out meals. This meant my kids were hungry but not 'HANGRY'....no one wants the latter.⁠
⁠
⏰ Breakfast - 8am⁠
🔔 Snack - 11am⁠
⁠
🥪 Lunch - 1pm⁠
🔔 Snack - 3pm⁠
⁠
🍽 Dinner - 6pm⁠
⁠
Remember every child is different. So do a schedule that works well for you and your little one.⁠
⁠
What are your favourite snacks? I'd love to know 👇⁠
