punkfiction_v.3 · February 2010

jerky and bbq chips. all the time.

*sallymad* · February 2010

10:00, normally a few hanfuls of kix/cheerios/goldfish/ritz crackers. Or maybe half a banana, or some cheese

*KatieH* · February 2010

we do breakfast at around 9, snack around 11 nap 1230-3, snack 4, dinner 6, snack 8.

Oh and sorry we do teddy grahams (honey), goldfish, snikkidy snacks ( baked fries, cheese puffs the grilled cheese kind and their choc chip cookies), fruit, rice cakes, graham crackers.

Skipperg82 · February 2010

Our go to snacks are Kashi bars (the soft ones that are apple, strawberry, or raspberry), goldfish crackers, apple slices, yobaby yogurt, cheese slices, homemade banana or zucchini bread. Whatever is easiest and close by.

J+O · February 2010

I usually give them between meals and of if he's getting a little whinny. I usually give bananas, grapes (cut up), string cheese, thinly sliced apples, applesauce, crackers, cheese crackers, they even have whole wheat crackers with cheese/peanut butter.

Stuff like this.

Kateysomething · February 2010

I didn't realize I was supposed to be on a set snacking schedule. I fail once again.

Snacks are either crackers, fruit, cheese, a Mighty Mini lollipop... when she asks for them. I suppose if she was asking for snacks all the time, I'd re-think that theory.

kelbrian · February 2010

I generally give two - one in the morning around 10 right before she goes down for a nap and one around 3 or 4. Sometimes she has three snacks if she asks for it.

They can be anything - orange slices, apple slices, dried cranberries/blueberries, raisins, sliced grapes, bananas, Annie's bunny crackers, yogurt, cheese slices/string cheese, sliced kiwi, chopped almonds, toast with jam or PB or cream cheese, mini bagels, cereal bars (Trader Joe's or Kashi), Annie's bunny fruit snacks.

Eh, I think random is kind of the point with snacks, isn't it?

I mean, I want a snack when I'm hungry for a little something, not just because the clock strikes 2 p.m.

1MusicMaker · February 2010

Most of the time P doesn't want a snack. But he is a great eater at mealtimes--he usually matches/exceeds what I have!

When he is hungry, it's always after his nap. He eats fruit/cheerios/crackers/yogurt.

karenmarie20 · February 2010

At DC she gets an am snack around 10-usually cheerios and an afternoon snack around 3-usually yogurt or cheese stick with fruit or graham crackers. At home, she gets one snack after her pm nap.

BMenz · February 2010

im not sure if he gets snack at daycare, but my dad watches him in the afternoons and all he does is graze. he has a stash of fruit bars, pb sandwiches, crackers, applesauce....basically whatever he can get his hands on to eat...

Shell24 · February 2010

When we go somewhere we bring the snack cup no matter what time it is

Other than that she gets a snack after she gets up from her afternoon nap, which is normally around 3:30 or so. Sometimes she sits in her chair and gets fruit or raisins, other times I just put some nilla mini wafers or the Earth's best crackers into her snack trap and she just plays and snacks.

KeepingItLowKey · February 2010

Lydia eats a HUGE and late breakfast... like around 10:30am. So she doesn't usually have a formal lunch. When she wakes up from her nap, she usually gets grapes, banana, and crackers, and some yogurt with berries in it. That's basically her snack since it's about 1-2 hours before dinner.

Before her nap she may get grapes or crackers but she usually doesn't get hungry for a long time after breakfast.

Chloe77 · February 2010

Nick eats breakfast, lunch, dinner, and has a "snack" (usually cereal or fruit) before bed. I give him snack foods like puffs after his meals sometimes if I want to keep him in his high chair a bit longer, like if we are still eating dinner and he is done, but that's it. My son is not a big eater, though. He likes to play with his food and throw it on the floor, not eat it.

whitless · February 2010

yogurt, banana, string cheese, peanut butter toast (yes, I give my 16 month old peanut butter), applesauce.

I call it a snack, but it's really a small meal. He sits in his highchair to eat it - it's to tide him over through nap.

*blondiem* · February 2010

goldfish, craisins, cheerios, random fruit or other veggies, cheese sticks, raisins, dried apricots...my list is pretty endless.

megs042107 · February 2010

In the afternoon if he seems hungry or if we're out running errands. I'll give yogurt or some goldfish, cheddar crackers, cheerios.... that type of thing.

Snacks are very random here and they don't happen every day... only if he seems to want something to eat.

Kateysomething · February 2010

I find myself very glad that I'm not on a precise schedule.

Susan_KW · February 2010

Usually late morning (10ish-11ish) and after her nap (3ish-4ish).

Any of the Earth's best crackers or smiley snacks, cereal bars, revolution food sammies, pirate's booty, fruit (apple slices, pears, strawberries, grapes), and goldfish. I find a lot of the easy to carry packaged snacks at BRU.

Back in the day DD used to eat cheese or yogurt for a snack too. Now she won't touch either of those.

lite-bright · February 2010

I'm a fan of freeze-dried fruit for snacks -- banana chips, apple chips, that kind of thing. I'll toss some of those, maybe some cheerios, and maybe a few animal or graham crackers in a snack cup and let her have what she wants.

Yogurt cups, if she didn't eat much for the prior meal. Maybe a nutrigrain-type cereal bar.

I usually offer a snack around 10ish and around 3ish.

LittleEgypt · February 2010

We sometimes share fruit, yogurt, or applesauce, or he gets those bunny graham crackers (hippy Teddy Grahams). He still loves to eat them out of the compartment in the play table, even though he rarely plays with the table otherwise.
