Picnicking in style



One thing about having a family that you have to think about is all of the outings that are going to happen, from school activities, sports, to road trips, and vacations. 

We have been through a few picnic baskets in our days but have never had a picnic backpack so it is totally new to us. What I like most about this picnic backpack from Stanfer is that it has pretty much everything you need. A good sized blanket, the backpack to hold everything, service setting for up to 4 people, salt & pepper shakers, butter case, napkins, wine opener, as well as a win bottle holder and lots of room in the back compartment to pack all of your goodies in. 

You can also fit a 1 liter soda bottle or a bottle of sparkling juice in the wine holder. My daughter loves how comfortable the shoulder straps are, she said this will be easy to carry even while hiking which is something my older daughters take our younger daughters on from time to time.

A great way to save some money by bringing your own food from home as well as being eco friendly because everything is reusable. The blanket is water resistant on one side so that when you are sitting, you don't have to worry about getting wet from the ground. What is best is that everything fits right inside of the pack when you are done.

We have several road trips and days trips that this will be used on. Our children are excited to get going once their summer vacation starts.

This picnic backpack is available on my amazon link below.

Don't forget your lunch bag



Having a nice lunch from home is sometimes what kids need to feel a little extra loved. I know from time to time my girls like to take lunch from home, but most times they are happy with what is available at school, although from their point of view the food is getting worse so who knows in the next few years we might be sending homemade lunches more often if not everyday.

Even if your children eat lunch in school they made need a lunch bag for either a field trip, or even to carry their snack in. My 3rd graders class has two snacks a day so I want to make sure her drinks stay cool, so they are refreshing when she gets to have them.

These are simple bags available in several colors and if you have some fabric paint you can let your child decorate their very own. Instant unique lunch bag (don't forget to snap pictures).

Even though this says children's lunch bag it is roomy enough to be pulled off by an adult as well.

You can purchase the Hydracentials kids insulated lunch bag on Amazon.

Insulated Lunch Bag


This bag is perfect for a small day out with children or for a man who works long hours at work. It has a nice side expandable rope that can hold a half gallon of drink with no problems or if you are going on a picnic you could put the blanket in this spot. 

This would also be great to bring home three ice cream half gallons from the store during the summer. The main reason we don't buy ice cream far from home during the summer is that we live rural so by the time we get home we would have soup. It just makes it home from the nearest store ready to serve up as it is.
