Obviously we have Magic Initiate. Maybe sure up your range attacks with Fire bolt or cure wounds for out of combat healing. Of course the popular Find Familiar, Aid, minor illusions, or Green Flame blade are solid option.
My only nitpick here is that Aid is 2nd level, and thus not obtainable by feat.

Damn you're right. I was thinking of temp HP and for some reason, Aid came to mind (which is neither 1st level nor temp HP). I meant to say False life.
"OMG Utsu that's a dumb idea!! You can't cast spells when Raging!"
Well yes, of course. However you are not always Raging are you? Not every battle needs you to rage, and I don't see a Barbarian YELLING AT THE TREES as they travel. Also there are some spells that persist while raging if pre-casted.

Artificer Initiate is a good way to add spells, as well as a tool set proficiency. Maybe the Barbarian like to cook? Cooks tools, snare spell for trapping food, Prestidigitation to add a teriyaki flavor to the boar. (Note XGTE rules for meals and short rest with cooks tools) Think Chef Rush (IRL)
However my Favorite spellcasting feat is Aberrant Dragon Mark. (and yes you can have it outside of Eberron) +1 Con, sorcerer cantrip and spell which recharges on a short rest, + temp HP or damage based off of your Hitdice (D12 for the Barb) ++ a cool flaw for roleplaying awesomeness. ("Your mark whisper to you when stressed, 'Rage,RAGE, F'N RAGE!!!' )
Ayways. Just some ideas.
I gave a party bonus feats partway through a campaign once, after a year long downtime period. The barbarian's backstory was that he was raised by a circle of mages, and went back to live with them after adventuring. The player took the Ritual Caster feat, simulating training with the circle, and he loved it.
Just pick up a double bladed scimitar... Attack twice with a claw then attack with the weapon which has a special trait of being able to use bonus action to attack with it.

Again all apologies for the confusion.
