Toddlers and snacks

ST1TCH · 24 Jun 19, 01:26 PM

Hi, im sure this information is probably somewhere but im struggling to find it. This is our first time with a two year old and im trying to work out the food situation.
We are staying in dvc so will have a microwave and a toaster, so thinking about doing a food delivery for things like bread, cereal. But the snacks seem really limited, i just wanted some things like rice cakes and more like the organix range crisps and biscuits. Just for queues and light lunches, is there anywhere people would recommend that can deliver or is it easier to take stuff like this in your case.
Thanks (sorry its jumbled nap time is coming to an end)

Do u have ddp?
If yes then fruit and goldfish etc are snack credits.
If not try dizzy dolpin for a grocery delivery.
If u have a car pop to walmart which is an experience in itself.
That said i took snacks in my case not because i couldnt buy food but because if nothing else i knew she d eat her favs...

No, no ddp this time.
Thanks ill have a look at dizzy dolphins, yeah im thinking taking snacks might be the best options because i just get a resounding 'nope' if i present something out of the norm.
Do you have to declare it?
Just thinking of the amount of suitcases i might need just for a toddler and a baby is making me anxious haha

We took loads of snacks from home for our toddler last year as we knew how fussy she can be. We were never asked to declare it but would have if they had asked about food.

We just took toddler crisps/wafers/oaty bars/biscuits etc.

Whole Foods have extensive organic and whole grain snacks. There is one a few miles from WDW but you can also have a delivery through Amazon. I buy most of my fruit and veggies there-a little more expensive but always good quality.

You are required to declare food coming into the US. You could bring packaged snacks in but not fruit and meat products.

The resort shop should also stock child friendly snacks. We were in SSR in May and there was a small selection, plus some "normal" food in freezers. It is enough to tide you over if you want to get a taxi/uber to Walmart.

We didn't take food this time (with 2 year old) and instead went to Walmart and got fruit and snacks there.

We are taking our two-year-old (she will be two by the time we go) in September. We're planning on raisins and rice crackers as a quick fix and then going to Walmart.

I plan to have a small freezer bag to keep under the pushchair with some grapes, bananas and blueberries in. We're at Animal Kingdom Lodge so we should have a fridge.
