MINI MATCH UP

The little doors make my 4-year-old actually sit still long enough to finish her crackers. Popping them open two at a time turned snack time into a game she asks for.

Snack time used to be a battle, but now my daughter races to pop open the little mystery doors two at a time to find matching pairs. The compartments are shallow enough that grapes and cheese cubes don't get lost, and she's actually eating while she plays instead of whining.

My 4-year-old actually asks for veggies now because she gets to pop the little doors open to find them. The two-at-a-time matching bit keeps her busy long enough that I can finish my own meal. Wipes clean easily too, which matters with a toddler.
