3.Baggage Check
A princess or superhero makes a fashion statement in the cafeteria. But lunch luggage also needs to have form and function. Look for sturdy, reusable bags with ice-pack pockets inside. Test zippers, ties, and easy-open/click-shut containers. You can also look to see if they are BPA-free.
4.Make Your Own Munchables
Instead of buying packaged items filled with processed foods, come up with your own. It gives you total control over what’s in there. Stock up on 100% whole-grain crackers and lots of stuff for your child to stack, such as turkey pepperoni, leftover baked chicken shreds, low-fat cheese, hummus, cucumbers, tomatoes, and sliced olives. The possibilities are wide open!
