DD & Snacking

My DD is constantly asking for snacks.. she specifys... she'll want cheese, then a banana, then an orange, and etc etc. Obviously I don't always give her every snack she asks for everytime she asks, but I sometimes I wonder if she's really hungry (she is a great eater during mealtimes) or just bored... I don't want to deprive a growing child and she mostly asks for healthy things... thoughts? does anyone else's LO do this?

    Unless E's schedule is off for some reason, she only gets snacks at certain times. Usually a mid-morning snack and then a mid-afternoon snack. We will give her water throughout the day if she asks for it, but she has to sit in her highchair for milk or juice.

    DS tends to do that, too. If it seems like a reasonable time to have a snack, then I let him have what he wants. We let him have a snack between breakfast and lunch and then again between lunch and dinner.

    My DS is a snack machine! and when daddy is in charge he get's whatever he wants whenever he wants it! Drives me crazy!! Dh doesn't understand that sometimes he might just be thirsty or maybe you should just feed him lunch! 

    I give him breakfast-snack-lunch-snack-dinner-small cup of milk and a few crackers a half hour before bed before bed or a piece of cheese.
