Stasher - Fill it and go!

When I think about taking bulk snacks on the go my mind usually goes straight to a disposable plastic bag. Something I can easily fill and eat from while I'm on the move. That was up until I was introduced to Stasher. Now my mind goes in the totally opposite direction. Now I reach for my handy reusable bag. I am absolutely in love with these silicone bags. You can fit just as much in them as a disposable plastic bag, but instead of tossing them out when you're done you just wash and re-use them over and over. They are great for holding candy, snacks, leftovers, you name it! I have one in my car with peppermints. The resealable top keeps them from falling out when it gets tossed all around the car too.

I used one of the bags for my husband's chocolate covered espresso beans recently for him to take to work. Now he can enjoy a few at a time and not worry about them getting stale or falling out of the bulk bag they came in. When he's all done I can toss the bag in the dishwasher and refill it with a new treat for him.

Stasher is the world’s first—and only—self-sealing, airtight, non-plastic bag! it’s made of pure platinum silicone, so it’s a healthy alternative that’s safe for people and the planet. Stasher can safely go from the freezer, to the microwave, and to the dishwasher.

Stasher comes in clear, aqua, and slate.

Help kids stay hydrated with Klean Kanteen

Keeping the kiddos hydrated is just as important at school as it is while they are at home. My daughter's school has actually installed water fountains that are made specifically for refilling water bottles. This allows kids to take a water bottle to class with them and be able to drink through out the day instead of just during lunch or the occasional trip to the bathroom during the day. As a mom I was really excited about this because I know my daughter doesn't always drink all of her milk at lunch and that meant she was really getting in a lot less liquid during the day then her body needs.

I prefer for her to use a reusable water bottle like this Kid Kanteen from Klean Kanteen over a disposable water bottle that will end up getting tossed after a few uses. This way she always has one to use and I don't have to spend the money on bottled water. I'm sure the teacher appreciates it too because it's one less plastic bottle that's getting squeezed making noise during class. The Kid Kanteen is the perfect size at 12oz for my daughter to use at school, and we were even able to get a sport cap top so she doesn't even have to take the top off to drink from it.

Features:
• Large opening fits ice, easy filling and pouring
• Electropolished interior doesn't retain or impart flavors
• Double-wall vacuum-insulated construction keeps contents hot 12 hours, or iced 40 hours
• Portable, reusable, and recyclable
