Healthy Snack Ideas for School Lunches
Posted by TSIPORA GROSS

THIS HAS CHANGED MY MOM LIFE:
Every Sunday morning, I prepare the entire week's worth of snacks for each of my kids, bag them, add a special note, and don't have to think about it again all week! Just add the main the night before, and voila!
I have gotten so many questions from our instagram community asking for specific ideas to put into these daily snacks every week. So we took a poll... and here are some really awesome ideas from real moms in our community!
This way you can maximize your time with your family by doing all your shopping and prep in one day and have a worry free easy week.
Hope you enjoy!
