School Lunch Ideas
Welcome to our School Lunch Ideas page! Here I share 1-3 lunches a week I serve my gradechooler in hopes that it gives you a few ideas of your own. If you are curious click here for my lunch making strategy and here for my thoughts on feeding kids in general.
In case you are wondering, his lunch box is from LaptopLunches.com There's no reason you can't make these style lunches in a traditional lunch box, we just fell in love with the reusable containers. So much so I've become an affiliate! Click the banner below to learn more...

Ask Roni: School Lunches
I have 2 sons, one in preschool and one will be next September. I have to pack them snacks for school and I really don’t want to keep relying on processed snack food for them. What kind of snacks do you give your little boy so he can avoid the processed food trap? Do you have some healthy kid-friendly snack ideas? Fruit just goes so far with my kids!
