I'm a pediatric dietitian living in the Midwest with three kids under 5.
I shop at Aldi for kid-approved, budget-friendly items.

As a mother of three kids under 5, navigating the reality of non-stop toddler snacking feels like being a professional juggler at the circus.

However, Aldi transforms the grocery hustle into a pleasant experience with its spacious aisles, unbeatable prices, and impressive lineup of healthy foods and snacks.

In addition to being a mother of three, I'm also a dietitian who works with children and am always looking for nutritious snacks and meals.

Here are 10 kid-friendly picks from Aldi that won't break the bank.

Raspberries are a staple in my kids' lunches.
