It's back to school season and that means.... LUNCH! Every mom's favorite time of the year. (I'm lying. I hate making my kid's lunches but that is another story). We're all about the healthy snacks... but not about the plastic waste.. (yay environment!!) So what do you do, besides let the kids starve?
Here are a few mom approved alternatives to plastic ziploc baggies!

Stasher Silicone Bags 
  • These are nontoxic, reusable & cute
  • 100% Silicone 
  • Many Sizes & Colors 
  • Price Ranges $8 for individual bag to $53 for bundle
  • Slightly pricey  especially if your kids loses everything like mine does​

Mini Mason Jars​
  • Glass Yay... But Glass Nooooo for most schools 
  • Convenient and reusable for many things 
  • Pricey :(

Lunchskin Paper Bags 
  • Loseable! Well you throw them away so that means the kids don't have to keep up with them! (That doesn't happen in my house, my kids lose everything)
  • Recyclable 
  • You can seal the bag! I've had wax bags before and had no clue how to close them (roll it or use a rubber band?)
  • Made from wood pulp

Beeswax Wraps & Bags 
  • ​Clings to food like plastic wrap yet, no plastic!
  • Washable  
  • Reusable & Biodegradable

There are also many off-brand reusable baggies available on amazon and other retailers that are a bit cheaper so it might not hurt as much if they don't make it home one day. 
Stainless Steel Containers 
Great for cleaning ease and little snacks!

Plastic Containers 
Yes still plastic, but reusable. Yay! Make sure you get BPA free containers!

Bento or Bentgo Box
All in one, less likely to get lost right? You'd hope so.

    ​I'm a mom of 3 girls and a husband who I converted to the crunchy life. I buy a lot and try a lot so you don't have to.
