Toddler Lunch✨

Overall rating: 9/10

Today lunch went over pretty well! These are all my daughter’s favorites BUT I added the leftover meatballs. She did not eat those & she threw her plate so they were all over the floor…typical toddler.

My daughter is 20 months old. Meals can be a disaster! A hit or miss depending on the day but I can say she eats pretty good for her age.

I am working on expanding her diet and seeking out more meal ideas & meal prepping for my kiddos.

What’s your toddlers favorite meals/snacks?

... Read moreFeeding toddlers can be quite the adventure! At around 20 months, children are often exploring different tastes and textures. It's common for meals to vary in success from one day to the next. To encourage healthy eating habits, consider involving your toddler in meal prep, like choosing veggies or snacks. Some popular toddler-friendly meals include veggie straws, mini meatballs, and fun pasta shapes. It's also essential to maintain a balance by offering nutritious options without overwhelming them. Engaging them during mealtimes can make a significant difference. Don't forget to introduce new foods alongside their favorites to keep things exciting! What are your go-to meals for fussy eaters?

I love getting creative with snacktime. Most of the time, I have my Littles help me make them because they’re super simple. Also, I don’t know who made the rule not to play with food but I think it’s so cute when my kids love what they’re eating enough to make a game out of it obviously they’re sit
