Well, it might be a stupid question... but it applies to flowers and veggitables... certain plant foods and fertilizers will make roses grow bigger and tomatoes grow larger.... Who knows...

No, its not a stupid question...
Rereading what I wrote it looks like I came off w/a smart aleck answer which is not what I meant.
I just meant that I'm sure there are spikes, fertilizers, etc. etc that you can use which can keep your tree in optimum health.....

It's a good question. There are a few ways you can maximize growth and I have a concentrate food that is super for that. I'll look it up and send you the name of it. I think accelerating growth has a lot to do also with the type of tree. Some are just naturally slow growing, so results would be slower in showing up. Others might give you quicker success, if they're fast growing to begin with.
Any kind of "plant food" or tricks to help baby trees grow?
Well, you got to give more details than that. First what type of trees is it and what is your climate from your area.
Many trees like Oaks and other hardwoods might be more slow growing than others. Fast growing trees would be your Cottonwoods, Willows, Alders , etc. I don't agree with dumping miracle grow and other Salt/Chemical based fertilizers on any tree. Try first the natural approach by innoculating your trees roots with the proper Mycorrhizae which is found on their roots out in nature. It acts as an extension of the feeder root system and believe me there will be a noticable differene in a couple of years. Just be patient.
Here's a California website you can use for educating yourself on the natural way of care for plants. This company is a California Native Plants nursery , but they explain very effectively how healthy eco-systems work.
I disagree. If you take an oak which is normally slow growing in the wild give it additional plant food and water very regularly it can add substantial growth over the years.
