Second week in, and I'm already looking for lunch box inspiration. It seems my 'Year Oner' is getting fussy, and so I'm looking for new recipes, and things he'll love.

I'm already stalking the internet, hungrily absorbing ideas. My boys received Planet Boxes for Christmas, and I'm alternating them with their Tupperware lunchboxes, because, well, it adds to the variety of making their lunch box a little bit different.

I already raved about the Planet Box here. And my boys really do love them. In fact for about a week after Christmas, they were still carrying them around like back packs. I highly recommend them, and they stay super cool with an ice pack slipped inside their cover. I'll do some Plan-it Lunchboxes next week.

But here's a little inspiration to help you in the much-loved Tupperware too. Because we all need it, right?

Are you loving packing lunch boxes for school, or loathing it?

  1. oh i'm actually loving it too - I'm trying to stay away from too much packaged snacks, opting for homemade variety and mixing it up with a few natural treats - we make a big batch of cookies, freeze and then the kids can pick one for their lunchbox. It's a hit so far...lets hope it stays that way! xx
