Starting solids with your baby and continuing to offer your kids nutritious foods through childhood is a BIG task. Every parent wants to give their baby the best from those first bites, and we all want to see our kids continue to thrive as they grow.
Little Spoon has always been one of my favorite baby food brands because they are truly committed to the parents they serve. This brand is deeply committed to families, launching a comprehensive initiative to make baby food brands more transparent—an effort that has even led to a larger initiative by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Not only is Little Spoon committed to transparency and high-quality ingredients, but they also have a full blog that guides parents across all areas of parenting.
While Little Spoon is a leader in baby food, they don’t stop there. They also offer snacks, smoothies and quick, easy meals for big kids, too. And now—you can shop Little Spoon at Target!
Let’s dive into my favorite products, my honest thoughts and how these products can support your child’s growth and development.
YoGos
Little Spoon’s YoGos are whole milk Greek yogurt pouches that make a fabulous option for snacking and starting solids.
Most parents feel more comfortable starting with purées, yogurt or oatmeal on a spoon, and Yogos check all those boxes. Made with simple ingredients (no artificial flavors or chemicals) and tested for 500+ toxins, including heavy metals, they’re a safe and nutritious choice. You can serve Yogos on a spoon so your baby can explore feeding, or offer them on a pre-loaded spoon to encourage self-feeding motor skills.
This is such a great first food option, so be sure to add them to your cart on your next Target run.
Baby Cereal
Little Spoon also makes a Baby Cereal that’s packed with 13 essential nutrients! Pediatricians often recommend oatmeal or infant cereal because they’re an excellent source of iron, which babies need plenty of before and after starting solids.
For me, Little Spoon means peace of mind. Parents have worried about heavy metals in baby recipes for years—and for good reason. That’s why I love that Little Spoon goes above and beyond, testing their baby and toddler recipes (yes, including their Baby Cereal!) for heavy metals and sharing those results on their site with transparency. Their Baby Cereal is backed by the Clean Label Project, a program that holds brands to the highest standards of safety. It feels good to know my kid’s food clears that bar—and then some.
Smoothies
Another favorite—Little Spoon’s Smoothies!
These are SO delicious and packed with fruits and vegetables. They come in convenient pouches, making them perfect for snacktime on the go for all ages!
Offer them as a car snack, send them to daycare or use pre-loaded spoons with your baby to help them practice independent feeding skills. Between these and YoGos, the flavor options are endless!
Baby Puffs
Little Spoon’s organic Baby Puffs are top of the line and were always a favorite in our home.
They dissolve easily, making them safe for babies 6+ months. Plus, they support fine motor development as babies practice picking them up and bringing them to their mouths.They alsoprovide a fun sensory experience with tastes and textures, all while being a great source of fruits and vegetables. Also, I love that they’re simply made with less than 7 ingredients!
Not to mention, they are the perfect pastime while you’re waiting for your food at a restaurant. When my kids were babies, we never left the house without these!
Snacks for Big Kids
I have two toddlers at home, and like most toddlers they’ve become a little picky. Thankfully, they LOVE anything made by Little Spoon.
The Apple Pie Oat Bakes are my kids’ absolute favorite (and yes, I’ve been caught snacking on them, too!). They’re made with hidden veggies and make such a convenient snack—I definitely recommend grabbing some on your next Target run.
Little Spoon also makes chickpea-based Veggie Loops for kids, which is HUGE for me. My kids love chips, but I don’t like keeping unhealthy ones around. These come in fun, kid-loved flavors like “Mac & Cheesy” and also have hidden veggies inside. Offering these to my kids feels like a win because I know they’re eating something good for them.
Family-Sized Frozen Meals for Kids
And finally, the product I’m most excited about: Little Spoon’s family-sized frozen bites.
Now you can shop Chicken Dippers, Meatballs, and Chicken + Veggie Sliders in the freezer aisle at Target!
Every recipe is made with REAL ingredients and REAL vegetables, and they’re quick and easy meals for busy families. Honestly, they’ve become a go-to for me when I need a fast lunch or dinner for the kids.
And now that so many of their amazing products are available at Target, it’s easier than ever to make better food choices for our kids.
Little Spoon makes it simple(and fun)to feed our little ones well. Be sure to check out their products at your local Target, or at littlespoon.com. Happy feeding!
