TIPS FOR PACKING AN EVERYDAY LUNCHBOX

 

TIPS FOR FUSSY EATERSFussy Eater Icon

Having a fussy eater in the house can make packing a lunchbox full of everyday foods a challenge. In spite of this, to make sure your child is getting all of their nutrients it is important to eat a wide variety of healthy foods.

 

TIPS TO SAVE MONEY $$

Packing an everyday lunchbox doesn’t need to be expensive. In fact, everyday foods can be a lot cheaper than sometimes foods.

TIPS TO KEEP FOOD SAFE Food Safe Icon

Food poisoning is never fun. Young children are at higher risk than adults. Research into lunchbox safety has shown that lunchboxes without a frozen brick get up to 12 degrees warmer than those with an ice brick.

 

TIPS TO INCREASE VEGETABLES

Vegetables are packed with vitamins, minerals and fibre to help with healthy growth and development. Vegetables will help to strengthen your child’s immune system and ensure they are healthy to learn and play at school.
