Chef's Note
For a smoother texture that toddlers might prefer, try blending half of the strawberries into a puree and swirling it into the cottage cheese. You can also prepare the components separately and let your toddler help with assembly for a fun activity. The cottage cheese mixture can be made a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator.

In a medium bowl, whip 2 cups of cottage cheese with a fork to break up any large curds and create a smoother texture.

Fold in the honey-vanilla mixture into the cottage cheese and stir until evenly incorporated.
