Cute Toddler Snack Idea

I’ve never been one of those moms who makes their kids’ food into super cute characters to get them to eat fruit and veggies. I thought, “If they’re gonna eat it, they’re gonna eat it because I said so and it’s good for them. That’s it.”

But after waging many fruit and veggie wars over the years, I’ve come to realize that sometimes food just needs to be fun. After all, I like it when MY food is fun!

So today I decided to surprise my kids with a fun orange snack. Nothing major – just some sliced up oranges displayed in a really cute way in colorful cupcake wrappers. They were a hit! I had to hold the kids back long enough so I could snap a few pictures for this blog post!

I think I got these cupcake wrappers at Dollar Tree the other day. Dollar Tree really carries some super cute stuff these days!

My little guy happened upon me right about now…

Good thing I shot a couple of good photos already! Because here he is!

He’s none the wiser. #mommywin

Carry on, sneaky mommy food warrior! 🙂 The best thing about this snack is that it’s not only HEALTHY, it’s FRUGAL! 🙂
