I bet you have one of those plastic multi layer cupcake holders

You're right! I can transport (in stacks of 2 holders) up to 72 cupcakes! I had no idea there were such holders until I had kids. Love them!

Hah- I used one of the cupcake holders for years- school events, scouts, sports teams, etc. The other day I was cleaning out my basement, found my cupcake holder and realized I haven't used it in years (my kids are in high school now). Made me kind of sad and nostalgic. I think the snack after a game does give the kids and parents some time to socialize and bond with the community. I think it's kind of sad when the parents sit separately and grab their child after a game and take off. The snack doesn't have to be a big gooey sweet treat- fruits, popcorn, etc. are fine.

On every team my kids have been on, parents sit or stand together during games (and during practices, if the kids are little), and chat the whole game. The only exception is the parents who get too nervous and have to stand off to the side. I certainly think it's nice if there is an end of season party with food, but can't imagine why you'd need it for social purposes on a weekly basis.

Huh? How are cupcakes better than goody bags? You are deflecting.

72 cupcakes??! For what?

We have never taken the snack after soccer. We usually have to run after the coach's roundup.

However, not sure why the existence of snack makes some of you downright bullies here. I mean, there is some really nasty crap coming out of anti smackers here. Above and beyond what the topic merits.

Do you ever wonder why you are so invested in not snacking that you Become snarling jibers?

Really? You must just one or two kids. When I bring treats for, say, Halloween, they're easier to transport in the cupcake holders. If I'm bringing something other than cupcakes, I flip the tray to the smooth side. If I have more than 72 cupcakes, I have to use a large roasting pan to transport the excess.

But why in the world are you taking more than 72 cupcakes anywhere? That's just insane.

((3 kids X 25 kids/class)+(6 teachers)) x 1 cupcake/person = 81 cupcakes. Don't know why you think that's insane. Making cupcakes is easier than fixing dinner - it just takes a little longer. We're done in about 2 hours.

I think it's insane that you make cupcakes for all three kids' classes on the same day. If you don't, I can't help you out.
