1. they work great for containing “like with like”
3. they are durable and reusable
4. the zipper is on the side rather than the top which means that you can actually fit more inside since the inside stays the same size and doesn’t get narrower at the top like a baggie does. It also means you can access items stored near the bottom quicker and easier (a plus for kids)
5. two sizes to choose from which is very nice
6. the bigger size bag has a handle – great for kids to carry around their toys (especially great for travelling)
Take a look at some of the ways I used them:
to organize my son’s pirate men collection
to organize my daughter’s Barbie petshop collection
to organize my son’s Klutz pirate ship building collection (this set didn’t even come with a box so I was really happy to have this solution to keep all the pieces contained)
Finally I created this diaper changing kit to keep in my church bag along with my bible, church library books, snacks, etc. This really works for me because it means I don’t also have to bring the diaper bag with me and now if I have to take my son out during the service I can just grab this bag (love the handle) and go and my two older kids can keep the church bag with them since it contains their snacks/books.

I’ve always been a bit of a ziplock gal, but those bags could convert me. My days of itty bitty barbie shoes are over, but I think I could still use some of those, esp. for travelling.

Wow! Great idea!! I use a lot of storage boxes but these would be great for the kids. They would even slip under my daughters bed easily!

One of those would be *great* for Belle’s Spongebob Squarepants bits and pieces. We bought it in Disneyworld. Bob and 17 pieces. I find them all over the house. He drives me nuts! lol
