Promotion for Little Bellies

Feeding your baby is about more than just mealtimes – it’s a journey of discovery, growth, and development. From those first curious nibbles to confident toddler snacking, each age and stage comes with exciting milestones.

Little Bellies is here to support Kiwi parents through every step, with wholesome snacking for Kiwi kids that’s carefully crafted to suit growing appetites and developing skills.

From first tastes to independent eating

Every baby starts somewhere – and often, it’s with a curious squish, a playful squeeze, or a cautious lick. That’s why Little Bellies embraces the natural instinct to play with food as a meaningful and important part of development. Their age-appropriate snacks are created not only to nourish but to encourage babies and toddlers to explore new tastes, textures, and shapes at their own pace.

Through every stage, Little Bellies supports the development of fine motor skills, palate preferences, and even your child’s budding personality. Here’s how their snack ranges are aligned with key feeding milestones:

7+ months: Tasty Textures

As your baby becomes ready for solids, Little Bellies’ Tasty Textures range introduces subtle flavours through soft, puffed snacks that are just right for mini mouths and little fingers. These snacks are ideal for first-stage self-feeding, helping little ones get familiar with new sensations while building independence. They’re organic snacks for baby development that transform snack time into a sensory experience.

10+ months: More to Explore

By around 10 months, babies are often eager for more variety and adventure. The More to Explore range adds exciting new shapes, textures, and flavours to keep curiosity alive. These puffed snacks are perfect for developing confidence, coordination, and mealtime independence, helping your little one learn to feed themselves while discovering what they love to eat.

Toddlerhood brings bigger appetites and even bigger personalities. Little Bellies’ Toddlers in Training snacks offer bold new flavours, fun shapes, and slightly more complex textures to match your toddler’s growing skills and adventurous spirit. These playful snacks for toddlers encourage exploration, build feeding confidence, and make snack time fun (for parents too!).

Why play matters at every stage

Little Bellies encourages kids to engage with their food because exploring through play helps babies and toddlers:

• Feel less pressure around trying new foods
• Discover favourite flavours in their own time
• Develop confidence through independent self-feeding
• Enjoy a healthy, happy relationship with food
• Strengthen fine motor skills and coordination

Through playful eating, your little one learns more than just what tastes good – they also learn about themselves.

Do What’s Natural: A philosophy for growing well

At Little Bellies, the belief is simple: when kids are happy, parents are happy – and that flows through to the whole household. Their “Do What’s Natural!” philosophy shines through in everything they do, by creating simple, wholesome, age-appropriate foods that help you to nurture, support, and raise independent little people who learn and grow, playing through every snack and milestone.

So whether you’re introducing solids, navigating toddler tastes, or just looking for better snack options, Little Bellies is here to help you enjoy each stage – one tasty bite at a time.
