Do you send snacks to school with your kids? Finding snacks that are organic, healthy and at the same time, delicious enough that your children will eat them is easier than you may think. I have been packing organic, healthy snacks for Eben for many years and have a list of goodies that he will happily eat.
These snacks can be made in large quantities, then stored in reusable containers. All you have to do is pick one each morning to throw in your child’s backpack and feel great knowing that your child has a healthy snack for school. Check out my eight favorite backpack snacks that are kid approved for back to school.

It’s back to school time, which means getting your family organized is essential for a smooth sailing year. Being organized will make most of the aspects of back to school easier and more enjoyable. Let’s face it, when we add all of the elements that come with school (homework, extra-curricular activities, music lessons, parent-teacher conferences) our family stress levels can rise. One of the best ways that I have found to keep back to school stress at bay is by being organized. Jump over to Inhabitots to learn my 8 eco-friendly organizing tips for back to school – the best part, they won’t cost you a dollar and have zero impact on the environment.
