Little Spoon

When you have a newborn and a toddler, someone is always hungry and it's never convenient. These help.

When you have a newborn and a toddler, someone is always hungry and it's never at a convenient time. You're mid-feed with the baby and the older one wants lunch NOW.

Little Spoon ships ready-to-eat kid meals that are actually decent. Not frozen, not shelf-stable mystery food. Real meals, in the fridge, ready in about two minutes. AND you can freeze them if you need to.

We leaned on these hard during the newborn phase with Mouse. Not every meal. But enough that when things got chaotic (so, daily), there was always something in the fridge that didn't require cooking, planning, or both hands. Keeps everyone alive and mostly fed.

Pro tip: they can be a great solution for travel - especially if you're driving. Freeze some meals, toss them in a cooler with some freezer packs. All you need is a fridge and a microwave at your destination.
