What would a mother do without those truly incredible containers you pack those lunches, snacks and drinks in throughout the year? You know, those drip-proof, spill-proof, durable, tight lidded ones which can seem impossible to find, but actually do exist!
I’m thrilled about these 10 on-the-go summer snacks. I try to make a bunch of snack recipes (some which are easy to freeze) to make sure I’ve got tons of choices ready to go all summer long. When you have a few favorites ready to go it makes summer time snacking that much easier, and healthier.
Check out some of my favorite on-the-go snacks and the containers I use to store them.

Pack some Red Bell Pepper Hummus in the Trio Stainless Steel Food Container along with pretzels and sugar snap peas for dipping.

U-Konserve nesting trio food containers will keep your Everything Kale Chips from getting squished so you can enjoy these crunchy goodies all day long.

Innobaby Keepin’ Fresh containers are great for toting along your favorite sushi sandwiches. These are a great sandwich for little hands to hold!

Would you like to save this?
Sure, you can pack a sandwich in these adorable LunchSkins reusable bags, but they’re also great for granola balls! They have tons of patterns and sizes of reusable snack and sandwich bags to store all your favorite snacks.

Use Yummi Pouch Snack Bags in each color to store Dried Cherry Seed Crisps, Wheat Germ Parmesan Crackers, and more!

Wean Green Glass Lunch Bowls were practically made to hold nutrient-packed Nature Cookies. They are the perfect size and shape to hold just a few for a super healthy treat!

Everything is better on a stick, and U-Konserve To-Go container will help store any number of these tasty Vegetarian Sandwiches on a Stick.

Coconut Chia Breakfast Pudding can be stored in a leakproof LunchBots container for breakfast, snack, or even dessert on the go!

Pack up all of your on-the-go summer snacks, with Zucchini Muffins for dessert, in one of these beautiful lunch bags from SoYoung, and add a sweat-free ice pack for those extra hot summer days!





I like wean glass containers. They are small and clean and fun colors.
About to start kindergarten / these would be great!
I use pottery barn containers
I use the Rubbermaid lunch containers. I’d rather not use plastic but for the price and quality I can’t complain.
Using Bento containers.
I have had really good luck with the stainless steel lunch containers from Pottery Barn Kids.
We pack fresh fruits and veggies in little zip lock containers.
I can’t believe what a difference the Bentgo Kids lunchbox made in how much my kids ate for lunch. It’s now so easy for them to just open one container and see everything in front of them in perfect portions.
Perfect for summer road trips!
All your snacks look great! It’s wonderful to keep it fresh and yummy! Yes please 🙂
Wow, These products look great. I’m going to shop the website now!
We use LunchBots containers. They fit perfectly in the kids conserve lunch bag. I sometimes send the kids with my zojirushi obento as things are guaranteed to stay hot/cold.
thank you for this wonderful fun site!
Ikea storage boxes.
Contigo water bottles with auto seal work great. Various online and store options.
We use Planet Box and love it!
