The Best Snack Ideas for Toddlers + Mama!

A few weeks ago I took to my Instagram stories to ask for HELP!!! I was out of snack ideas. My babies, now toddlers (what?! When did this happen?!) need more varied snacks and sometimes a mama’s brain has reached maximum capacity. I needed help from the experts. YOU! We need to stick together because momming ain’t easy. And that’s the understatement of the year.

We combined forces to create this great list of snack ideas! I’m going to refer to it on the weekly. Thank you to everyone who helped me come up with this list of great toddler snack ideas!



TODDLER SNACK IDEAS (that mom will love, too)



  • Snap pea crisps
  • Cheese sticks, cubes or string cheese cut into little pieces
  • Fruit and veggie squeeze packs (I like the Go Go Squeeze packets from Costco + Kirkland Signature applesauce)
  • Blueberries
  • Strawberries
  • Peanut butter sandwich (my kids like it with honey, not jam lol)
  • Pretzel sticks
  • Apple slices
  • Carrots (boiled so they are soft)
  • Clementines
  • Grapes
  • Greek yogurt
  • Goldfish
  • Crackers (mini club crackers are a good idea)
  • Lara Bars
  • Clif Z Bars
  • Green smoothies! Harris especially LOVES green smoothies! This is what I put in mine:
    • A couple handfuls of spinach (I buy the organic package from Costco)
    • About 1/2 cup organic frozen berries (I love the mix from Costco)
    • 1 packet WMNutrition blueberry protein (HANDS DOWN the most delicious protein I have ever had! Sweetened with stevia so it’s all natural, tastes like a blueberry muffin, and only 99 calories with 19 grams of protein. I LOVE IT!!! It also comes in small to to-go packets so you can easily travel with it. Use code STYLE47 for 47% off their entire site! Oh, and I love this to curb my cravings + it tastes like mocha and is such a nice, warm treat!)
    • Water
    • Sometimes I add a little bit of Trop 50 if I want it to tastes more tropical
    • Ice
    • I add all of the above and blend!! You’ll need to play with the amount of liquid and keep adding to get the consistency that you like the best.
  • Fig bars (my kids love the fig bars from Costco!)
  • Granola bars
  • Pirates Booty
  • Graham crackers
  • Cereal bars
  • Yogurt drops
  • Trader Joe’s apple sticks
  • Veggie sticks (my kids LOVE these…I buy the big bag at Costco)
  • Cheese curls
  • Marshmallows
  • Raspberries
  • Egg cups (these ones look good! Leave out anything you don’t think your toddler would like)
  • Hard boiled eggs (Goldie especially LOVES these)
  • Hummus and cucumbers
  • Banana
  • Belvita biscuits
  • Diced ham or turkey
  • Frozen peas out of the freezer
  • Yogurt raisins
  • Mini wheats
  • Muffins (someone gave me this recipe – add in a blender spinach, kale, peanut butter, banana, egg and some oats and cook in mini muffin tins at 350)
  • Inner Peas from Traders Joe’s
  • Freeze dried fruit (blueberries, apples, bananas)
  • Nuts
  • Bagel and cream cheese
  • Peanut butter crackers
  • Fruit leathers
  • Vanilla wafers
  • Bread
  • Graham cracker sandwich (Put yogurt in the middle and put in freezer until frozen. Sounds delish!!)

Please leave a comment to give us any additional ideas that we may be missing so I can add it to this list! It’s easy to run out of ideas so I’m excited to be able to refer to this list of toddler snack ideas. Thank you so much to everyone that contributed! We’re a good team.

    Hi Jenica,
    I love your blog and your family is adorable. I just have a quick question and I hope it makes sense. Your picture with the green smoothie and protein packets….there is another picture in there with a pink box that says something about “slim” what is that? Again I hope this makes sense. Thanks so much!

      Thank you so much, Tammy! That is the Advantraslim. I love that too! It’s the all-natural way to suppress your appetite for a few hours. I like the hot chocolate kind the best (it actually tastes like mocha). Here is the link! https://wmnutritionsystem.com/product-category/weight-loss/?v=7516fd43adaa

I cannot BELIEVE it was only a short year ago that I cannot BELIEVE it was only a short year ago that I was deciding if I could handle doing another frozen embryo transfer…and now LOOK at him 🥹 It was one of the hardest years of my entire life. Going through things I don’t wish on anyone. But look at us now 😭 And looking internally…the things I’ve learned.

Tell me about something a year ago for you that you didn’t know you’d get through and can’t believe you are where you’re at 🤍👇🏻 #infertilityjourney #ivfsuccess #frozenembryotransfer
This is it. Not just in motherhood, although moth This is it.

Not just in motherhood, although motherhood really amplifies it, but in life.

It’s the fast days that are loud and sunny.

It’s the slow days that are quiet and snowy.

The mismatched pajamas and the dressed to the nines.

It’s the mess.

It’s the organization and order.

It’s the to-do list that gets crossed off and the to-do list that doesn’t.

It’s in the allowing of both.

It’s in perhaps preferring one over the other, but not judging either.

It’s in the wisdom that both will pass and each have lessons to teach.

Neither is wrong.

Both are allowed.

This is it.

It might feel impossible in the middle of it and y It might feel impossible in the middle of it and you might question everything.

“I have no idea what the future will bring.”

“Will everything I’m putting myself through be worth it?”

“What am I doing?”

“Am I making the right choice?”

But your moments will come. Trust that and let it bring you peace.

The alternative is feeling anxious, which is also completely acceptable and normal, but remember that you also have the option of trusting and feeling peace, too. There is room for both.

You’re not alone in this 🤍

It was a year ago that I decided to jump into the It was a year ago that I decided to jump into the deep, black ocean of IVF again. I knew what I was doing this time and I was filled with fear because…I knew.

When I found out I was pregnant, the fear was my secret. Only a close few knew.

And this space was filled with tears, uncertainty…soul reaching prayers.

Sleepless nights, gut wrenching heartache.

Secrets that I hold close to my heart.

And then he came.

And the healing began.

And the mama, this mama, knew she did it.

That black ocean had swallowed her whole and she’d do it again for the light that is him.

Once she swam to the surface, and jaggedly gasped in the fresh air and felt the sunshine on her face, she knew she would do it all over again.

For this sacred chaos.

Tonight as I was moving the bassinet out of my room, I stopped. The room will soon be cleared. The shelves emptied and the order restored. And I can’t believe that the ocean was conquered. The chaos was where I found the strength and the beauty.

The sacred, precious chaos.
