I am about to embark on a 10 hour road trip with my 2 year old. I would like to be able to give her snacks unsupervised (meaning, me in the front seat, her in the rear seat) without having a full day's supply of cheerios etc flung into the various nooks and crannies of the car in the very first moment of frustration.
What I'd like is some sort of small container with a large toddler-proof (yes, I am dreaming here!) lid that would have a smaller, toddler-friendly opening that would generally release only a few cheerios at a time. Thus, allowing the child to feed, but limiting spillage from any one throwing incident.
I am willing to put up with small amounts of spillage. My current strategy is to pour just a dozen pieces into a bowl from the source bowl, then refill frequently. This is not terribly practical if I am driving.
They make these kinds of things for dogs and horses; does anyone make them for babies?
Other strategy suggestions gratefully appreciated.
