Food for Thought

My mommy friends and I are always trading meal ideas for our toddlers. One day they will eat everything in the house, their bellies are like a bottom-less pit, the next they won't eat a crumb. Well with the exception of goldfish crackers.... There isn't a toddler out there that would turn down some yummy extra cheddar goldfish. See that's the thing with toddlers. They eat for one purpose only and that is to satisfy their hunger. Refuel, recharge, rebel!  Anyways, I don't push the food issue, because toddlers just LOVE not doing what you want them to....as if you haven't already figured that one out!
So this is what we packed in our lunch for our playdate at the park yesterday:
PB/J
Grapes
Carrots, spinach, and cheese with a little ranch dressing.
They had almond milk to drink. They love when they get to have almond milk, it's a nice change from cow's milk and it's delicious. Not to mention, it is rich with antioxidant vitamin E and has 50% more calcium than milk.
