Bananas are my toddler’s go-to food. He eats them between meals as a snack and sometimes in place of them too – because he’s a toddler and fussy is his middle name. I don’t really mind though because bananas are so healthy – thank goodness.

Now, if your little one also loves his ‘narna’ as much as mine, here are some fun ways to dress up his favourite fruit.

Banana sushi - Weelicious

1. Banana sushi

It takes five minutes to make this fun banana sushi with your toddler. All you need are some spreads, such as peanut butter, cream cheese or Nutella for the ‘glue’ and some coatings to sprinkle on. You can keep things healthy here with chia seeds and shredded coconut, or you could delve into party territory with 100’s and 1000’s and chocolate chips.
