REFLECTION QUESTION
Food Use Reusable Containers

Great job on getting rid of your disposable cup habit! How does it make you feel? What's next on your list to reduce your waste?

REFLECTION QUESTION
Family Swap the Snacks

How does swapping out prepackaged snacks for fresh fruit or veggies benefit your family?
