what do you use to keep their lunch hot or cold? how do you package their snacks orndo you just buy single servings of everything?
baggies? bento? tell me how you keep it convenient, what containers you use and which brands are your favorite.

We use Sistema Klip-It containers. The one we use for fruit eventually started molding under the blue band in the lid (see photo below) because of moisture. I tossed that one and now we're a lot more careful with the new one we're using.
They are a great size, but I wish the lids were a little easier to clean. I like that they are fairly low profile so LO has an easier time eating out of them with either hands or utensils.

I use whatever is handy. Baggies, small tupperware...I use a frozen ice pack thing and a skip hop bag. I really want some bento stuff, but so far this has been working well...

We use Easy Lunchboxes and the cooler bag that goes with them -
http://www.easylunchboxes.com/The lids don't seal tightly so they are easy for DD to remove, but you can't put anything liquid in unless its in another container. We make 2 lunches at a time and keep them in the fridge.

@Mrs Green Grass: it looks so compact and neat

We use a combo of different containers. I do like those Klip-its!

I use the Easy Lunchboxes too and bought the insulates bag that goes with it. I put an ice pack in the bottom, lunchbox on top, zip it up and done. For snacks, I send in a whole box of whatever and they dole it out.

We use bentos (silicone cups as dividers) and pack them in an insulated bag with ice packs. Both kids eat their foods cold.

I agree that I love the Easy Lunch box. Its not super thick plastic like a lot of other nice bento but its 2 pieces (container and lid) so its easy. Basically special rubbermaid/tupperware.

We use flat, square gladware or containers from buying lunch meat, divided by silicone muffin liners to hold servings of things. Bento style, but not cute or artistic. We toss it in a cheap, insulated bag from Target with an ice pack.
