Toddler snacks | GERBER | 12 months and up

Having toddler snacks on hand is a must for a few reasons:

Promoting healthy habits

Ninety-five percent of children have at least one snack per day, and kids between one and thirteen get around 25 percent of their daily calories from snacks ¾ the equivalent of lunch or dinner. Research shows that eating patterns are established as early as age two, so it’s never too early to help your little one form healthy eating habits

Motor skills development

Convenient bites in your bag are more than healthy snacks. For toddlers, they are great for developing  fine motor skills (grabbing the snacks, manipulating the snacks in their hands and moving the snacks from hand to hand). They also double as tools for teaching basic association (orange tastes like this, green tastes like this) and for early preference development (I like this but not this). And, of course, watching your little onehold, examine, smell, taste and giggle is a great joy of parenthood. 

Find the right Balance

It can be hard to find the right nutritional balance for your little one when they don’t always finish their meals. Add GERBER toddler snacks to your little’s one diet to help balance the daily nutrients they need
