Snack-Tiles Activity

Do you have a little one that inhales their food?  Especially at snack time?  NC seems to have finished her snack before I can even turn around from giving it to her.  In order to try and slow her down when eating certain snacks (like fruit), I tried giving it to her as this snack-tile activity.

Make sure you follow my dealing with children board for more ideas.  Don’t forget to save the pin for later.

To do your own snack-tile activity you will need:

• Muffin tin
• Magnetic tiles
• Snack

Put your little one’s snack into the different muffin holes.  For this snack, NC was having a half a tomato and green pepper muffin, pomegranate, and cut up blueberries.

Cover each hole with a magnetic tile.

When you give it to your little one, they will need to pull off the tiles to get to their snack.  Did it work at slowing NC down? Yes, it did.  Did she enjoy it, I believe so.  She didn’t get frustrated at all and quite enjoyed having the tiles to bash about.

Depending on the age of your little one, you could turn this into a game of memory.
