Instructions

  1. Prep ahead of time. When it comes to packing a school lunch, try to do it the night before. This saves so much time on busy mornings when you are trying to wrangle the kids together and get them ready for school. If you can't make something the night before, try to at least prep the ingredients and store in airtight containers in the refrigerator.
  2. How to pack lunch. When it comes to school lunches, the container that you pack them in might be one of the most important parts. There are so many options that you can choose from. Here are my favorites: bento-style lunch box, insulated lunch bag, kids cutlery, and toddler cutlery.
  3. Opt for foods that aren't super messy. This one is self-explanatory. 🙂
