Kosher Toddler Snack Ideas
I usually pack my kids two morning snacks and two afternoon snacks, because they're in preschool from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day, and, let's be honest, they are growing like weeds and never stop eating. I usually pack these combos in reusable sandwich-size bags that are labeled with their name and are machine washable for when they get super gross. Here are my favorite combos:- Applesauce packet + Trader Joe's fruit and grain bars
- Pirate's Booty + fruit strips
- Cheese crackers + banana or pear
- Mini pretzels + fruit cup
- Mini muffins + applesauce packet
You get the idea! Believe it or not, they rarely come home with uneaten snacks.
Kosher Toddler Lunch Ideas for Preschool
When it comes to lunches, I try to give my kids a little bit of everything: fruit, vegetable, protein, grain. I don't always achieve this massive goal, but I do a pretty good job. You'll see that I put a yogurt with every single meals and that's because it's one thing my kids will always consistently eat, which is my number one pro tip for packing a toddler's lunch: Always pack one thing you KNOW they will eat no matter what else is in the box. Here are some visuals on lunches I've put together lately:
And here are a few I didn't instagram:
