50+ Portable Snacks For Babies, Toddlers and Kids

Portable snacks for babies, toddlers and kids is a hot topic. We all lead such busy lives so it’s only natural to want to take a bag full of healthy snacks for the kids to enjoy when out and about. You might also enjoy our post on how to offer healthy snacks to kids. For ALL NEW recipes check out our Best Selling books How to raise a healthy, happy eater from baby to school age, and Boosting Your basics. Or you might like our Foodie eBooks.

So many pre-packaged snacks are loaded with additives, preservatives, or high amounts of salt and sugar so it can be hard to find a healthy alternative that still tastes delicious. We have put together a great list of recipes and ideas that might help when you are next packing the snack bag.

Enjoy.
