Mighty Team Picks: What We Pack for a Picnic
Our go-to Thrive Market favorites for National Picnic Month (and every weekend after).
In honor of National Picnic Month, we asked our Mighty Team to share exactly what they pack for a sunny day at the park with their families — and every single item is available on Thrive Market.
From better-for-you snacks to no-mess clean-up essentials, these are the tried-and-true products that make our family outings easier, healthier, and just a little more fun. Whether you're packing a big blanket or chasing a little one, these are the things we keep coming back to.
🥜 Mission MightyMe Peanut Nutty Puffs
These are always the first thing we throw in the bag. Made with over 50% peanuts, Nutty Puffs are a delicious, melt-in-your-mouth way to keep peanuts in our kids’ diets — and they’re pediatrician-developed to support early allergen introduction. No rice, no fillers, no junk. Just real food, perfect for picnic snacking.
🍓 Fresh Bellies Freeze-Dried Strawberries
Crispy, mess-free, and packed with real fruit flavor — these are a hit with everyone from toddlers to grownups. No added sugar, and no sticky hands.
🍎 Brainiac Brain Squeezers Applesauce Pouches
These brain-boosting pouches are clutch when you're in the middle of the park and need something quick, clean, and filling. Bonus: They’re fortified with nutrients for little thinkers.
🧃 Lakewood Littles Organic Fruit Punch Juice Boxes
No dyes, no junk — just real juice with a taste our kids actually love. These are lunchbox staples that also go straight into our picnic cooler.
🧴 All Good Mineral Kids’ Sunscreen Stick (SPF 50)
Pocket-sized, mess-free, and safe for sensitive skin — this sunscreen stick is a summer MVP. We keep one in every bag.
🧺 The Honest Co. Alcohol Sanitizing Wipes
Sticky hands, picnic table surfaces, rogue sippy cups on the ground… these alcohol wipes have saved us more times than we can count.
🐝 Bee’s Wrap Reusable Beeswax Food Wraps (Lunch Pack)
Eco-friendly, picnic-perfect, and adorable. We love using these to wrap sandwiches, fruit, and leftovers without plastic waste.
Whether you're planning a big weekend picnic or just hitting the playground with snacks in tow, these picks help make things simpler, safer, and snackier. From our Mighty Team to your family — happy picnicking!
