Back-to-School Lunch Bag Essentials
Lunch Bag Essentials Guide
Starting to feel the stress a bit? We promised to help you get ready for September with our Back-to-School Guides, and this week we’re sharing our Back-to-School Lunch Bag Essentials. It comes hot on the heels of our first Back-to-School Backpack and Lunch Bag Guide and has 18 items to consider filling your kids’ lunch bag with—fun accessories to keep their food fresh.
Reusable containers are all the rage right now for sandwiches and snacks. This Reusable Sandwich Wrap doubles up as a placemat for your food when opened and is easy to wipe clean.
For kids who like soups and pasta in the lunchroom as much as they do at home, the Kids Konserve Food Thermos also keeps food cold. It’s the perfect kid size and easy for those cute chubby hands to open and close.
There are a lot of water bottles out there these days, but the latest and greatest right now is the Vapur Anti-Bottle. In fact, we were the first to write about them in Canada. These are so cool your kids are not likely to leave them at school. ’Nuff said.
If you’re looking for some fun utensils to pack for their bento box lunches, try the Snack and Stack Lego versions. These are fun to send to school, but just as useful for those meals at home if they need a little something to keep them entertained at the table.
And there’s more, so much more. See all 18 of our lunchtime must-haves in the complete Back-to-School Lunch Bag Essentials Guide.
