Fun Foods for Families

gerber lil beanies snacks made of beansLets face it, toddlers do what is is that they want to do. Most of the time they’re in between total happiness and mischievousness. On thing you do know about toddlers is they eat what they want, when they want to. My oldest kiddo used to sit in front of the fridge and pick different snacks she would want, then not eat anything she picked out. With our youngest we have had to get creative with snacks.

Gerber® Lil’ Beanies(TM) snacks makes snack time easy and delicious because my toddler actually wants to eat their snacks. One of the best ways to get your little one to eat snacks is to make it play time.

We like to play tic yay toe with our Gerber® Lil’ Beanies(TM) snacks. Granted our little one isn’t that great but we always race at the end to see who will finish their snacks first.

    I wish that we had these when my youngest was smaller. I love that it is a way to help get toddlers to eat their veggies. I typically didn’t have any issues getting my son to eat veggies though. He also loves the fruit in the squeeze pouches. I still buy them for him.

    I need to get some of these and keep one in the car because my daughter always wants to munch on her way back from school.

    There was something really similar to this when mine were little. They just loved it. I bet toddlers really love this snack.

    When my daughter was little she made me do the airplane method to get her to try snacks that she hadn’t had before. Gerber snacks were always her favorite.

    A healthy, mess free snack is the way to go! My grandson hasn’t started snacking yet but I’m sure he’ll love these when he gets older.

    Those seem really handy. I’m not a mom, but I’ll have to keep these in mind for if that ever changes.

    My kids loved to snack. The Lil’ Beanies look like a great snack for little ones.

    I wish that was available when my kids were still toddlers. Oh well, there are the grandchildren who would love to snack on that. I’ll stock up on a few and give them to the little peanuts when they come over to visit this weekend.

    My youngest used to love Gerber snacks when she was a toddler. These look like they’d be tasty.

    These are really great tips. And so much fun! I wish I would have thought of these when mine were little.

    Both my kids were Gerber babies. They are all grown up now. Gerber is a brand trusted by most moms.

    My kids were Gerber babies too! Hard to believe that the youngest is already 5.
    Thankfully this is a brand that I trust so I know when it’s time for my grandbabies to snack I will know what to grab for them.

    I used to get my toddlers to eat finger sized veggies by dipping them in ranch. Ranch is the great equalizer.

    My kids loved Gerber snacks when they were younger. I love all the different varieties they have come out with!
