I love that he will eat these packets because it is an easy way to get some fruits and veggies into his system. That being said&#8230; those little buggers are expensive! I thought, there has to be a better way! Sure enough, there was! After searching what felt like the entire internet and reading every reviews possible, I decided to try Natures Little Squeeze reusable packets&#8230;. and the review were right!

The only problem with the 5 oz packets is that they seem a little big for my 18 month olds hands. Also, he knows he needs to squeeze them but he doesn&#8217;t quite get it. He squeezes the middle of the packet without realizing that moves half the food up and half the food down.<\/p>\n<p>To Sum it up:<br \/>\nYes &#8211; I would buy these again<br \/>\nYes &#8211; I would recommend these to friends<\/p>\n<p>If any other mommy (or daddy)\u00a0feels like those darn delicious squeeze packets are gonna make them\u00a0go broke&#8230;. make sure you tell them\u00a0about these great packets!<\/p>\n<p>Stay Tuned for Recipes!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Living with a picky toddler can sure make life seem more difficult than it truly is.
