Do you guys have kids? I have 4, yes say that again 4. I totally give props to all you mamas out there for being just that, a mama! No one ever told you parenting is easy, but yet even after having the first kid, experimenting with all the trials and terrors we love them so much that we always seem to want more!
Similac® has introduced new products that help my toddler (or any toddler over the age of 1) get all the nutrients that they need. I have to admit, it was a saving grace for us! These are the Go & Grow by Similac® Mix-Ins™ and Go & Grow by Similac® Milk Based Powder which you can find at your local Walmart and Walmart.com.
Right now you can earn $3.00 off any size Go & Grow by Similac® Mix-Ins™ when you use this offer from Ibotta!
My daughter will be turning three in a few days. I love being able to stay at home with her, and she absolutely loves when back to school comes around, and it ends up just being her and me all day. I think she not-so-secretly likes it that way. She hates splitting up my attention!
I never really had any picky eaters until the little “princess” came into our lives. She is such a peanut, literally tiny – but healthy! This child has energy for DAAAAYYYYSSS! She runs off all the food that she eats, so getting her extra nutrition is really important to us. I’m not going to say that it’s easy to make sure that always happens because…we all know how it is. But it is something that we like to focus on and is a priority for us!
The Go & Grow by Similac® Mix-Ins™ come in handy dandy little packets that you are able to mix in with 1/2 cup of food. With protein, fiber and added vitamins and minerals I can mix it into pretty much anything my daughter eats without her even knowing!
One thing we like to do when it is back to school time and the hustle and bustle really starts – is bake! Early mornings come quick for us and we like to have some great snacks and breakfast options right on hand! I like to make these toddler approved Cranana Coconut Cookies. What kid would turn their nose up at cookies? Lucky for us, these babies are filled full of good for you ingredients!
We just portion out a 1/2 cup of our “cookie dough” and mix in our Go & Grow by Similac® Mix-Ins™ which makes about 3 cookies! Similac® recommends that your toddler consume no more than 2 packets per day.
I’m not gonna lie, my daughter could survive off cookies. That slightly might be true for me as well. BUT with these cookies, I have more confidence in giving them to her, they make a good breakfast, snack and even dessert! They are full of bananas, cranberries, coconut and oatmeal! Tell me that that doesn’t sound good…and easy!
Pop these little buggers in the oven for about 10-15 minutes and you are set to go! Why not serve along-side a glass of your Go & Grow by Similac® Milk Based Powder which you simply add to water, and it helps balance out your growing toddler’s diet!
So if you’re looking for some delicious, wholesome and tasty snacks for this coming school year that can have your toddler fed, filled and satisfied – these Cranana Coconut Cookies are the way to go!
Remember you can buy both your Go & Grow by Similac® Mix-Ins™ and Go & Grow by Similac® Milk Based Powder at Walmart.com for an easy convenient shopping experience!

Can these be made without the stiri-ins?

If you’re meaning the Similac powder yes, I only separated a 1/2 cup of the mixture to use the powder in so just omit powder entirely and it will be fine!
