Ants on a log - Peanut butter on celery sticks with raisins on it





apples and peanut butter





i make my kids fruit salad with apples, bananas, honey dew, cantelope, and strawberries then I take an orange and i cut it in half and I squeeze it over the whole salad and then I don't have to add any sugar its sweet enough. it lats in the fridge for a few days, the bananas get real soggy so I cut those up when i'm about to give the kids the fruit salad.





give them carrots or other veggies cut up with some ranch dressing to dip them in or some other dip. kids love anything they can eat with their hands. fruit is always a good snack and jello is a good snack, make it with juice or sprite (or other carbonated drink) and it will give it an extra kick. Hope this helped. Good luck!What are some quick,healthy,and yummy recipes for toddlers and younger children?

Yummy shredded chicken and vegi wraps. You can use any vegis they eat, cold or hot. Roast chicken, then shred it, and a sauce and roll up in a whol wheat tortilla. I also love fruit salad, homemade chicken nuggets (cut up chicken into bite sizes, egg wash, crush slatine crackers then coat the chicken with crackers and bake for 15 minutes in a 400 degree oven. You can freeze these for up to 6 months and they are so much healthier than mcdonalds, but are still fun for little ones.
boil beef until tender, put some carrots %26amp; potatoes %26amp; sometimes add cabbage. blend it... hmmm... yum yum!
