Fresh & Healthy: Fun Fall Lunch Box Meals
It is always fun to add a little extra touch to the kids lunch box for school. In the Fall I put these crazy items in the girls lunches. The Holiday bags help brighten their days. Thankful for the opportunity to pack the girls lunches and that they enjoy the little surprises.
Lunch Goodies:
- PB&J Sandwich (one was an Almond Butter & Jelly Sandwich)
- Bag of Popcorn
- Cutie Citrus Fruit with a pumpkin face drawn on it
- Bag of Mini Sweet Peppers
- Homemade Halloween Sugar Cookie
- Capri Sun
- Water Bottle
Do you have special items you add to your kids lunches?
Fresh & Healthy: First Day of School Lunch Box Meals
Karlie and Brina’s lunch for the first day of school
Another school year has started…..we had a blast this summer. Their school lunch boxes are metal with a chalkboard on the inside so I can write them a message. For the first day I wrote “Happy First Day of School Brina & Karlie. We love you!” The girls pack a lunch Monday through Thursday on Friday they eat their lunch at school as a special treat. Most days the girls pack their own lunches but with the first week being so busy I got them started until they adjust to the new schedule. Each day they get a protein, fruit, vegetable, dairy, drink, and snack (sometimes I will through in an extra snack or treat if I know we have activities after school).
Karlie’s lunch box has a shiny red race car with her name on the car and tracks
Brina’s lunch box is covered in hearts and her favorite colors (orange and pink)!
Each lunch box has their design and names on both the font and back as well as the sides (see picture at bottom for the side view). The lunch boxes were a “surprise” for the girls. They were thrilled to get these to use for school. I was pleased with how they turned out too.
