Gimme 5 - toddler snacks for on-the-go

Whenever we're out for a long day, snacks are the things that get us through! Here are some of our favourites, what's yours?

1 - Apples & grapes - at home we have these straight from bag or vine, but these are great for days out.

 2 - Cheerios - little C loves these, he can pronounce the word correctly (which proves just how much he likes them). We only ever have them as a snack and his face lights up when I get the tub out.

3 - Goodies Mini Oaty Bites - I only found these the other day but they're a staple of the nappy bag now. We used to get the bars and they went EVERYWHERE, they're just so crumbly. C-bear doesn't want to miss a crumb of the bites, which means tidy eating, the perfect size.

4 - Baby Biscotti - these travel well, line up nicely in our snack tub and can be given whole for a special treat or snapped up to be given a little at a time to stop whining whilst sitting on a train/bus.

5 - Sweetcorn Rings - like hula hoops but healthier.
