Take the last weekend of June as an example. On Saturday, we had a very full schedule. We started the day at 9 am at the soccer field. My husband and son stayed there, when my daughter and I ran to the Y for swimming lessons. Then, we met back up at the soccer field. I handed my husband the packed lunch, as he left to go to the baseball field for the playoff games for the league he is commissioner of. The kids and I had lunch and then after a couple more soccer games, where we got eliminated from the tournament, we headed down the road to the T-Ball field. After T-Ball we had a quick ice cream treat with the team and met my husband at the baseball field. We headed home about 7 pm. Everyone showered and we headed out for dinner. After dinner, it was off to an engagement party.
On days like the above, I find it important to keep the family energized. Trying to sustain the family and still be portable enough to move from spot to spot during the day, can be a challenge. We each brought along a water bottle and my son, had a full jug. I brought along a small cooler with extra drinks, sandwiches, grapes and red peppers. In my bag, I brought along some baguette chips (more to come on that!) and some fruit snacks.
The fruit snacks that I packed were the new Mott's Medleys Fruit Flavored Snacks. The kids like that there are a couple of varieties. We enjoyed both the Berry and the Assorted Fruits. I thought that it was interesting that they are made with real fruit and vegetable juice (pear, apple and carrot). I checked the nutritional data, and they seemed similar to other fruit snacks that I had.
For us, fruit snacks are a go to snack for on the go.
