Easy-open lunch/snack containers?

DD1 is doing a summer preschool program and needs to pack snacks that don't require teacher assistance. 

Are there small containers that you think are particularly easy for little hands to open? I picked up some of the ones from PBK and while I like the quality, she still has a bit of a hard time getting the tops off without stuff flying everywhere. I'm trying to pack them about 2/3 full to cut down on that, but if there are better options out there I'd like to pick some up!

Maybe something where the lids screw on and off instead of needing to be pried open? Other ideas? I know I could go with sandwich baggies and probably will from time to time, but I'd like reusable stuff for most of her snacks.

  • They have a ton of those reusable snack bags on Etsy.  I need to get some too, so I'll be watching this post.  I also don't know what to pack him for lunch since it needs to be non-perishable and they need to be able to do it themselves.

  • I'd like to use something besides baggies.  It is wasteful, and I'd prefer not to have the food in plastic.  I've seen these in a catalog but never got around to ordering them. I haven't seen any reviews so I wonder how well they work.
