Snack Time Made Easy

Snack time is the period where moms like to take a break from feeding. It is a great time for your child to learn to feed themselves and to handle a drink while mom washes dishes, takes a deep breath or checks her Facebook status on her iPad.

It’s hard to get a handle on juice boxes. One squeeze too many, and I’m cleaning up a tidal wave of apple juice. Keep the mess to a minimum with The First Years Adjustable Drink Box Holder. The expandable top gives sippers a handle to grip everything from milk boxes to yogurt smoothies.

I tested this on my toddlers and rather than being frustrated with Capri Sun pouches, I enjoyed a stress-free, spill-free beverage break. I just threw this in my kids’ bag and transported it to play groups and birthday parties a.k.a. messy drink territory.

I’ll drink to that!

Next, you can stop holding cereal in your hands. The Snack-Trap is a simple cup with a soft lid that lets your child feed himself. It is not completely spill proof of food, but its convenience make up for those minor messes.

I tested this on my toddlers and preschoolers. They loved the independence of feeding themselves. I would load it up with Goldfish or cereal and hit the road.

The First Years Adjustable Drink Box Holder and Snack-Trap are a sanity and timesaver for moms. They were always with me when I’d leave the house. These are great stocking stuffers for those young kids in your life 🙂
