Whether it is a road trip or simply an errand run, driving with your toddler is difficult for a variety of reasons. A simple way to keep your toddler occupied is by stocking up on snacks. The difficulty is finding snacks that your baby can eat without making a mess in the car. The following are some snacks you can give your toddlers on the go.

1. Crackers and cheese
Crackers are almost universally appealing to toddlers. When they transition from semisolid to solid foods, this crunchy food gives them a new texture to explore. Try to find brands with high nutrient content. Adding cheese cubes or sticks to the mix gives your baby the essential proteins needed for tissue and muscle growth. You can also add nut butter or hummus to make the snack more interesting.

2. Fresh fruits
Diced apples, pears, bananas, and melons are excellent fruits to pack in a colorful box on the go. Grapes, strawberries, and blueberries are other favorite snacks for toddlers. Dried cranberries, raisins, apricots, and mangoes might be easy to handle in the car since they are not sticky or wet. You can also have fruit yogurt in cartons and flavored milk in bottles as healthy toddler snacks.

3. Salad
Fresh veggies are a good snack option for the car as well. You can make small packets of snap peas, crispy okra, or spinach chips for toddlers to snack on the go. Thinly sliced carrots give toddlers vitamin A, which is good for the eyes. Sliced cucumber and zucchini are water vegetables that are also exciting for toddlers to chew on. You can also pair these with cheese, yogurt, and hummus for a balanced snack. Make sure you get a waterproof on-the-go snack tray for your toddler.

4. Popcorn
If your toddler is a little older than two years and used to solid foods, popcorn is an easy snack to take in the car. It is full of fiber, which plays a role in regulating digestion. There is no sugar in this snack, and it contains very few calories. You can air-pop corn kernels at home or look for healthy store-bought options. Skinny Pop is a super low-calorie option with exciting flavors. You can give your toddler an assortment of new tastes, white cheddar, caramel, chicken, or stick to the fundamentals, plain popcorn with butter.

5. Muffin
No toddler will say no to a miniature cake, and adding healthy vegetables to an exciting treat is every parent’s secret trick. Cinnamon pumpkin muffins provide protein and vitamin A. Banana and spinach muffins are a perfect combination since they give your toddler instant energy and supply potassium and protein. You can make blueberry muffins without gluten and dairy. You can make this tasty and healthy snack even more appealing with honey, nut butter, or cream cheese.
