VERY important. DS needs fruit, crackers, puffs, cheese, or milk at least twice a day between meals!

At the moment (15 months) LO only gets one snack, at 5pm (plain yogurt with fresh fruit mixed in). Hopefully that will keep working - we try to make sure he's hungry for his meals, and so far he has been a good eater at meals. If we know we'll be out at his usual mealtimes and need to delay him a bit, we'll bring a container of Cheerios to tide him over.

Do NOT get between my child and her snacks. Just don't do it.

Well, he doesn't need them all day long anymore, but it IS important that he brings the "right" snack to school. They have snack time every morning and he's very concerned with image, so he likes to bring something "cool". lol...kids are weird.

Lifeline.

Mine don't snack at all when we're at home, I find that it really affects how much they eat at meals. But if we go out during the day I always have Trader Joe O's for the car just in case!

I was going to say not important, but if we're out running errands? Totally critical. God forbid I forget the goldfish.

Important because it seems like both my kids are always starving, even if they've had huge meals. I don't feed them on the go very often, though. I like to have them sitting down at a table when they're eating.

Waiting for food at a restaurant with a 15 month old who doesn't know how to color/gets bored easily? Must have the yogurt melts.
