Another time saver that we used to do was to pre-wrap the snacks for the kids lunches. I would put the chips, crackers etc. in individual size amounts in sandwich bags and put them into a large plastic container with a lid. The kids made their own sandwiches on the weekend and put them into the freezer. Each child has their own type of container. One has a square container, one has a round one and one has a butter container.
Each night the kids would pick a snack and put it in their lunch box. In the morning I add the sandwich and the juice box. Some mornings as we are about to leave, we realize that we didn't pack any lunches. Since everything is pre-done, we can get the lunches together as we leave. I don't pre-wrap the snacks anymore. Each of the kids likes to do their own.

What a great idea to put snacks in small bags and keep them in a large plastic container. Next year, when my triplets start kindergarten, I will need to pack four lunches each day, so these tips will definitely come in handy.
This is a pretty neat idea, Joyce. As a mom of two, I need all the great tips I could get. So, thanks for this.
