A more tolerant interpretation suggests that in fact “snips and snails” derived from “snips of snails” and its meaning would be “bits of snails”. They also suggest that girls love to be called “Sugar and spice and all things nice!”

Secondly, what are little girls made of saying? Sugar and spice, And all thats nice; Thats what little girls are made of.

In this regard, who wrote sugar and spice and everything nice?

What are snips in snips and snails?

The most likely explanation (but not 100% certain) is that the original words were snips of snails and puppy-dogs tails, where snips means little bits/pieces of. The repeated /sn/ has a certain ring about it and, of course, the rhyme between snails and tails is important.
