Recently I was approached by my 5 year old. He said "I want to be like the other kids and buy lunch at school. I don't like to be different." It made my heart drop. I happen to live in a community with a very low household income and most of the families with children qualify for a free lunch program through the state. I really just wanted to just squeeze him and tell him that I would buy him school lunches. Instead, I thought I would get creative with a review opportunity that was given to me.
I received a package of WEXY snack bags for a review and got to work. WEXY bags are eco-friendly, BPA free, and biodegradable! What more could
a parent ask for? Oh, by the way, the also have adorable characters on
them that my kids love.
Knowing that I am packing a lunch that is not only fun for my children,
but safer for my children is very appealing. I really do not like the
thought of buying chemical free foods, just to package them in a plastic
bag that is made with BPA or other carcinogens.
WEXY bags are not only cute and fun. They are durable. I managed to
stuff a sandwich (crust-less of course) the bag without any seams
bursting or the bag falling apart. That is not usually a challenge for
most, but I purchase the wide loaf breads that usually are too big to
stuff in a bag.
Sometimes I feel like plastic bags have a mind of their own and I have
arguments with the seals to get them to close. The seal on the WEXY bags
is easy to open and close. No need to yell at these bags to get them to
close.
After sending my 5 year old to school with WEXY bags for a few days, he has learned a very valuable lesson. He now knows that it is okay to be different. He also knows that just like him, other kids want to fit in too. Wexy bags are a product that will be stocked on my kitchen shelves. They are too fun not to have around for my kids lunches.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
