Our family seems to always be on the go. From guitar lessons to gymnastics to baseball games, I sometimes feel like I spend more time in my car than I do at my house. Because of this, we often end up grabbing snacks as we are running out the door. Over the years I’ve discovered ways to make snacking on the go easier for our busy family so I wanted to share those tips with you all!
The most important thing, in my opinion, is to have a variety of snacks for kids to pick from. Some of our favorites are cheddar crackers, grapes, string cheese, raisins, and sliced red peppers. Recently I discovered a new snack called TEDDY SOFT BAKED Filled Snacks that are a hit as well. Kids love them because of their cute teddy bear shape, cookie like taste and soft cake like texture and moms can feel good about giving their kids them because they contain no high fructose corn syrup, no artificial flavors and no artificial colors.
Another tip is to keep snacks in a place where kids can reach them. Having snacks within reach makes it easy for kids to help get ready to leave so it’s not all on mom or dad’s shoulders. While I’m grabbing my purse, phone and sunglasses, the kids are grabbing a snack and water bottle. It might seem like a small thing but it’s one less task I have to remember to do before I head out the door.
I also always keep a stash of shelf-stable snacks in the car or my purse. Having snacks with us means we are ready for a last minute trip to the park or sports practice. They are also great for days when running errands takes a bit longer than I planned. (Mom tip: keep soft snacks stored in a plastic container to avoid them becoming squished at the bottom of your purse.)

I’ve been hearing a lot of buzz about these snacks! My boys have been asking to try them. Kids need snacks all time! A nice grab and go!
The bears are so cute! I love the idea of putting the kids in charge of grabbing the snacks. Teach them responsibility! :)
I always make sure to have after school snacks for the kids. With their sports we all need a good snack on the go!
My whole family have always been big snackers, and these look so good. I think my kids would have lived on them if they’d been around back when they were little!
My son loves thee. He takes them to band practice in the afternoon to snack on.
I need to pick these up for my kids. They will love them!
I recently redeemed an in-store coupon for a free box of these and all the guys in my house thought they were pretty tasty. Oh yeah, did I mention all the “guys” in my house are literally adults? :)
I am all for quick and easy snacks! With homework and sports activities we seem to be always on the go, so these are great snack options.
My kids love these teddy soft bakes!!! I pack them in my kids lunches all the time and when I don’t they’re totally disappointed!
I feel like I am seeing these everywhere. We’re going to have to try them!
I saw this the other day and had no idea they were so cute! This would be a good snack even for myself!
Your photos are adorable. These make great snacks for kids. They also make great snacks for me!
While I don’t have kids, these are some of my favorite snacks! Guess that makes me a kid at heart? :-)
Those look amazing … I need to stockpile these and snack on them myself!
