It’s already that time of the year! (How did the summer fly by so fast?) For healthy, back-to-school treats, here are a few of our editors’ picks.
Reuseable—and Cute!
There has been lots of bad news lately about school lunch, but this is really good: reusable sandwich bags, in sets of four (two sandwich bags and two snack bags), that are free of BPA, PVC, phthalates and latex. They can be cleaned easily and reused over and over again to save money and reduce waste. russbe.com

The family-owned company has just launched a new line of cereals that will send the entire family off with a healthy start to the day. Varieties include three gluten-free options, and all ingredients are traceable to their family farm of origin. onedegreeorganics.com
