Answers:
actually it is healthier to eat about 6 small meals a day. my daughter was what is called a grazer/ she ate healthy snacks. If your worried try pulling the timing of the snacks longer and longer in between until they are at more set times so that she is snacking at just certain times. Unless your daughter is very overweight(mine ate like that and is now 11 a nice weight in the lower range) and still prefers healthier foods. she doesn't over eat and now eats at normal times.

once they hit school time they have to "normalize" somewhat so it isn't as huge an issue when they are younger.

just make sure she is getting her vitamins out of her snakes and proteins and dont worrry about it. if that is what she likes to do and that is how she eats then let her. everyone is different
