Update, 3/2: The contest is now closed and we have a winner – commenter #10, Michelle S. Thank you so much to everyone who entered!
What’s almost as much fun as eating a snack? Packing it up, of course!
Our kids received these super-cool Snack Happened snack bags from Itzy Ritzy at a Christmas party, and the bags have since become an indispensable part of our snack routine. They are reusable, washable, eco-friendly, and BPA-free, with a PVC-free waterproof liner and a lead-free zipper.
Although you can get them in lots of cool designs, the ones we got (called “Create Your Own Canvas“) can be personalized, so each kid has pride of ownership when carrying them around.
What do we carry in our snack bags? Let’s see:
Carrots, apples, grapes, crackers, string cheese, hummus with veggie sticks, oranges, celery, bell peppers, bananas, sandwiches, cookies, banana bread, mini muffins, cornbread, chips, granola…and the list goes on.
Extra bonus: We feel good about contributing to a “greener” environment by eliminating plastic and paper bags from our snack routine.
As a special “thank you” to our readers, we’re giving away two Itzy Ritzy snack bags (design of your choice), thanks to Itzy Ritzy.
