Well I don’t pack lunches for my kiddos yet but my husband is a teacher so I pack his lunch. I try to also write a note to brighten his day.

I have always used the cookie cutter trick to make my kids lunches seem more appealing to them. I make sure that they are 100% part of making their lunches so that they cannot complain and to make sure that they are going to eat it and not waste. They love fruit and veggies so that helps a lot.

I don’t leave notes for my son in his lunch yet (he is 4) but I do leave drawings sometimes. I also will occasionally use cookie cutters to cut his sandwiches into fun shapes and he loves his fruit salad in his Incredible Hulk thermos.

I would LOVE this!!! Right now, my oldest is going in to 1st grade so this is my first experience with packing school lunches. My plan is to have veggies and use fruit as the dessert rather than cookies or or sugary things and I will backing packing water rather than juice.

I like to include fruit, especially grapes or bananas that they can eat with their hands.

I love fruitabu for lunchboxes – though I love the cheaper variety that Target sells better. :)

My daughter just loves her bento box because everything looks great in all those tiny sections. Healthy foods never looked better!
Melissa
Lunches – my best ideas are to make sure that there are alot of choices, and at least one not completely healthy, but somewhat healthy snack included!

We homeschool so we don’t always pack lunches unless we are going on field trips or co-ops. So each one has their own special little bag with their fave treats to take along. When we are home we like to eat lunches in muffin tins :)

My daughter loves yogurt, I put in the freezer the night before and take it out right as we are leaving to put in her lunchbox, then when she has lunch it is almost thawed out, still kind of slushy, she thinks she has a great treat.

I allow my son to pick what ever he likes, only allowing him to pick one unhealthy snack . I let him help me pack lunches the night before. He loves to eat peanut butter , fluff, jelly and bannanas! ( which he gets as a treat!)

I sometimes “paint” my 10 yr old daughters sandwich with food coloring. Of course, all you can do is abstract art since it bleeds out, but she loves the effect. (dab lightly and it won’t be soggy) You can do a great Picasso-like rainbow!
