What do you put in your LO's snack trap?

GuitaristsGirl · April 2012

We do snack on the go via snack trap at least every other day (probably more) and I'm sick of the O's that I've been giving them. Multigrain, but still

Goldfish and other small crackers are an obvious option, but what else? I'd love to offer some healthy variety... But I shy away from, say, blueberries or etc because of the sticky mess. We sometimes do freeze dried fruit, but it gets expensive to do too often.

What is your go-to for an on-the-go snack that fits through the lid of a trap? (No, they can't be trusted with food sans trap yet!)

I do freeze dried apples, yogurt melts and goldfish besides cheerios or puffs.

Dried blueberries from Costco, bread, etc.

Not sure if everything is super healthy but we put Cheesits, Wheat Thins, broken up pieces of graham crackers, goldfish, raisins, craisins and dried fruit.

I often do raisins and walnut pieces. Or sliced almonds. Sometimes we make a "trail mix" with yogurt-covered raisins or yogurts melts mixed with Cheerios and nuts.

Gerber cheese puffs (look like cheetos), goldfish, teddy grahams, cheerios, mini nilla wafers

i put in trader joe's multigrain crackers (these are the boys' favorite), trader joe's cat cookies or animal crackers, raisins, and sometimes other cereals, like frosted mini wheats or cinnamon life.

Not super-healthy, but Cinnamon Life is our go-to snack trap snack.

naflmj · April 2012

we do cheerios a lot but also raisins, yogurt covered raisins, craisins, small teddy graham type cookies, trail mix

WillisReincarnated · April 2012

I do a lot of what was already mentioned. I also do sliced apples (not nearly as messy as blueberries) and pieces of granola bar, cereal bar, etc.

Our goldfish alternative is Annie's organic cheese bunnies. I tell myself they're better than goldfish. I also recently found some "veggie chips" that are shaped like straws and aren't as salty as real chips-- the kiddos love those, but I try to limit them. I keep telling myself I'll try veggies (soft cooked carrots, sweet potatoes, etc.) but I haven't yet.

Also, not a snack trap item, but we do applesauce in the little squeeze packets in the car frequently. They're expensive to buy one by one, but Costco has a big box that makes them less expensive.

And they have those refillable Silli pouches.
