Definition
A small treat, prize, or something desirable—often used informally, especially by or for children.
Etymology
Formed from 'good' plus the diminutive suffix '-ie,' following the same pattern as 'doggie' or 'kitty.' It emphasizes something small and pleasing.
Kelly Says
The '-ie' suffix in English unconsciously signals smallness and cuteness—that's why 'goodie' feels inherently more appealing than just saying 'good thing.'
