Usually we're rushing out the door & the last thing I'm searching for is something to help entertain my kids. This simplifies that. The work is already done. Just find the bag I want & go! We store ours in wire bins in a cabinet that everyone can access. I love that the bags are clear (so we can all see what's inside), have 2 zipper pouches per bag (hold multiple activities or separate activities out), & have a handle!
