I cannot believe it’s here. Back-to-school creeped up so quickly, and now we’re just in it! Whether or not you have kids, the whole “back-to-school” feeling applies to everyone. The low key summer vibes wear off, traffic picks back up, and there’s just this general sense of hustle in the air. Am I right?
In my house, back-to school just got real this year. Zoe started Kindergarten at a new school and Ava is still in preschool. This means I need to get two kids out of the house one whole hour earlier than I have been for the past 5 years. If you have young children, you know the kind of challenge this situation brings. Having said that, I need all the help I can get!
One thing I always try to do to help myself out is pack lunches the night before. This saves me precious minutes in the morning, and we all know how every minute counts!
When packing lunch, I always like to keep things simple. Having different types of fresh fruits and veggies on hand is an easy way to make lunch interesting. I try to make lunch colorful, and use different shapes and textures. This makes it more fun for the kids to eat! Nobody wants all brown food for lunch!
However, something that’s new for me this year is that I have to pack Zoe a snack as well! So now I’m packing two lunches everyday, AND a snack! Just what I need… Something else to think about!
That’s why I’m so excited to be partnering with Taylor Farms so I can tell you all about their new Snack Packs!
You guys, these have been such a lifesaver for me! They provide a healthy, colorful, well balanced snack. I don’t have to think about it, and my kids LOVE them!! It’s a win win if you ask me.
Even Ava, who literally almost never eats veggies, loves having her own little pack and dipping the broccoli into the dressing! Truly, I couldn’t believe it.
Check out all the different options they carry! Honestly, these packs save me, PLUS I love ’em too! They’re great for on the go, in the car, or at my desk for a quick pick me up.

I have these same planet labs lunch boxes and saw your idea with the chocolate covered sunflower seeds. Genius! My kids love them and love that they get a treat, but I feel better knowing they are getting something a little sweet without going over the top with the sugar. And they fit so perfect in that little spot. 🙂

Totally agree!! That’s why I love them so much!
