Preparing a tasty and balanced lunchbox for your kids helps maintain a routine, prevents grazing, and stops them from coming home with a lunchbox full of food!
Whether your children go to school, daycare, or spend time at home with you, a healthy and well-packed lunchbox is a lifesaver!

This is a fabulous lunchbox (below) for children. It’s airtight, so food stays very fresh (no brown apples!), and comes with two little containers that are great for yoghurt (as pictured below) and snacks like sultanas. It comes in a few different patterns perfect for all tastes.
These lunch boxes and matching insulated cooler bags are available from my online shop here.
Morning Tea
Sliced apple and Greek yoghurt.
