Little League Snacks

[Anonymous]

This is our first time doing an organized sport. They requested parents bring a snack for after the game. What do people typically bring? Thanks!

Goldfish and juice boxes. Or some snack that is peanut/tree nut free. We have seen Oreos, Goldfish, Fruit Snacks, Fruit Rolls, and the like. Some people also bring smaller apples and oranges. The really cool parents bring Gatorade which the kids love but some of the parents are not thrilled with.

Somethings small and hand held is really what people aim for.

This.

Our teams always announce allergies. If there aren't any, then you have more options.

For early morning games, we sometimes have mini-muffins or doughnuts.

LIterally nobody does this. The mom above just has 8 kids and thinks other people should pay for them.

Every parent on our team brings extras. Mainly because there are very few snacks that come with just enough for a team. You will need two packs of the Goldfish individual bags to take care of the team. Every parent on our teams (baseball, soccer, and basketball for three years now) have allowed the siblings to take a snack. It is not something anyone demands but more a matter of we need 9 and can only get snack X in packs of 8 so what the heck.

Yup. Our teams have always had extras offered to siblings. My kids know not to go up for snack at the other one’s games and wait for it to be offered directly. It pretty much always is.

Bringing extras because they're there? sure. But the parent did not specifically buy them FOR the siblings

Just to give you a different perspective, OP, I do not deliberately buy extra for siblings and given my son's multiple LL seasons, nor do most others. If there are leftovers, have at it first-come, first-serve. Some people have big families (4 or more kids) and who knows which siblings will even show up on a given day. Feel free to purposely buy for sibs, but know that this is not expected.
