Parents of toddlers may often wonder, who is this little creature who snacks constantly? Toddlers burn big energy but most aren’t big eaters. Many pick at meals or take just a few bites, leaving snacks as an important source of meal replacement.

Toddler snacks should be low in sugar and introduce little ones to a variety of foods. Parents packing on-the-go snacks may be tempted to stick to one item but there are helpful organizers that allow multiple foods to be toted.

The On-the-Go Travel Formula & Snack Dispenser from ZoLi is a stackable container with four compartments. Parents can fill four separate containers with different types of snacks and use the easy pour spout to quickly feed hungry toddlers.

The stacking system is customizable so parents can bring between one and four containers. The containers are BPA & Phtalate free and form the shape of a bottle so it is easy to dig out of a diaper bag.

The small containers can hold healthy snacks for toddlers such as cereal, dried fruit, cut-up carrots, and whole-grain crackers. For younger children, formula can be stored.
