It&#8217;s a fun snack that I use to play alphabet games with my daughter and a tasty treat that she enjoys as well. It&#8217;s also great as a travelling snack for road trips or everyday errands.</p>
<p>I typically put a handful of the snack crackers into little baggies. The snack size baggies are great for portion control. However the box is a keeper and is also a great to bring along since you can play Scrabble on the back using the Cheez-It Scrabble Junior pieces.</p>
<p>You can also improvise and play other games. For instance, I like to ask my daughter to tell me what letter she pulls out of the bag before she eats it.</p>
