What We Pack for a Little Picnic

Lately we've been really enjoying picnic-ing and having meals/snacks outdoors. At least once a week I try and take Jack for a little mommy & me date to the park. We find a shady spot and sit on our Skip Hop blanket - it's foldable and zips into itself - totally functional and cute. And most importantly, it's machine washable. We also have the matching diaper bag that we love.

We pack Jack's food (white cheddar cheese and green beans here) in these awesome glass Wean Green containers - the 4oz cubes seem to work really well for us. We got the limited edition lunch bag met the awesome CEO at this event. Her sweet daughters enjoyed playing with my scrapbook products and Jack just liked watching them. Now he's more of a doer and usually enjoys playing with the lids, but this time he's got his hands on my favorite go-to snacks - Kind bars. They are delicious and easy to throw into the bag. I imagine this scene will change quite a bit once Jack is walking, but for now, life is a picnic. If you have any favorite products, snacks, or tips to share, please do so in the comments!
