My family and I have been going on lots of adventures this summer from water parks to theme parks to the zoo to just walking to the park. I have become quite the snack packer for our little trips as eating out at all of them can add up fast. We often just need a snack rather than a big meal, so why waste all that money when we’re not even going to eat it!
Our snacks this summer have become foods that are easy to pack such as juice pouches, fruit, water and chip snack bags. Frito-Lay variety packs make it easy to make my whole family happy because of all the different varieties come packed nicely in the individual bags.
Last week we headed to our local zoo, with a friend and her kids. It was two adults and eight kids! I packed our snacks and we set off.
We spent just a few hours at the zoo before it got too hot that we decided to leave, but we did have a great time. The kids all got to see the animals they each wanted to see and enjoyed snack time on some picnic tables.
This is probably coolest sight we have ever seen at the zoo before, too bad the picture is not the greatest. Yep that is a lion right there by the glass!
The Frito-Lay snack bags were a hit with everyone, and it turned out the other mom brought some too! They seriously are a super versatile snack to bring along places. An apple, a snack bag and some juice or water made a great snack for all of us.
I wanted a soda but the Pepsi stand by us was closed.
My boys were bumeed we forgot our Fire Bone Hot Dog Skylander® figure in the car as they wanted “him” to see the zoo with us. They have become quite attached to him! Yes that is him in a seat belt in my car as my son didn’t think the dashboard was safe enough.
A few weeks ago I shared a post about a cool new mobile app called Blippar that is able to bring Skylanders® to life. Blippar gives fans an easy way to experience augmented reality with their favorite Skylanders® characters by scanning specially marked Frito-Lay Classic Mix or Flavor 20-count variety packs to view the content and enter for a chance to win some great prizes! A Fire Bone Hot Dog figure is actually being awarded to a winner for every 15 minutes of the promotion!
Look for specially marked Frito-Lay Classic Mix and Flavor Mix 20-count variety packs to use the Blippar app to enter for a chance to win and of course get some yummy snacks! Fans will also receive a $5-off coupon for a Skylanders® SWAP ForceTM Starter Pack and $1-off coupons for Skylanders® SWAP ForceTM Single Toy after participating in either promotion. Coupons supplies are limited, so enter before they’re all gone!

That's so nice that you guys got to go to a zoo and make the most of a beautiful day! Sounds like you had quite a group, too :) I agree that packing snacks is a lot easier and cheaper than buying food every time you go somewhere!
