A steady supply of snacks is always a must when you’re on the go with kids, but the waste of one-and-done baggies doesn’t have to be. If you’re hoping to make snack time a little greener, swap those plastic baggies for one of these functional and reusable snack bags that are both super stylish and eco-friendly.

There is no shortage of options when it comes to choosing the right (re)zip storage bags. Each one is made out of food safe, FDA-grade PEVA material, is lead-free & BPA-free, offers leakproof double-lock closures, is freezer safe, can nest and compress flat for convenient storage. Oh, and each bag replaces up to 300 disposable bags! You can buy individual bags all the way up to a 10-pack in both flat and stand-up styles.

If you’re not a fan of the zippers and cloth, these simple reusable snack bags mimic the traditional single-use bags pretty well. They store flat but feature a gusset bottom with plenty of room, and the air-tight lock top can even hold liquid. The bags are food-safe, BPA-free and can easily be washed and used again and again. They also feature a reusable label you can write on with a dry erase marker and wipe clean.

Fluf Flip also has an equally cute zip-top version.

How many times have you misplaced those freezable ice packs that help keep everything cool? If the answer is too many, you’ll love the PackIt Freezable snack bag.

Love the convenience of those no-mess pouches for your tots? Take those purees on the go without worrying about waste. These colorful reusable food pouches can be refilled again and again, so you’ll always have a handy way to feed your toddler away from home.
