Hi! Can anyone recommend their favorite snacks for 2-year-olds? I'm running out of ideas that are quick & easy, at least somewhat nutritious, and not choking hazards for this age. One can only eat so many crackers in a lifetime!

Thanks for any ideas.

Let's see... for us there's:

Apple slices (sliced fairly thin)
Banana pieces
Cheerios
Unsalted pretzels
Watermelon chunks
Cheese, cut into matchsticks
Those yogurt-in-a-tube things, frozen to make freezies
Kielbasa, cut into coins and from there into quarters
Those fancy unsweetened applesauces with other fruits mixed in
Grapes (sliced, if desired)

Hope that some of that appeals!

Cheers,

KathyO
