Send Your Kids Back to School with Creative Lunchbox Ideas

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich., – Unfortunately, the summer is coming to a close. This means it’s time to start preparing to send your kids back to school! When you’re shopping for supplies and new clothes, don’t forget to consider what your kids will be eating every day at school. Don’t stick with the boring sandwich lunches, send your kids back to school with these creative lunchbox ideas!

1. Wraps

Instead of a regular sandwich, switch it up with a more creative wrap for lunch! This list has quite a few interesting ideas, but we’re a fan of the almond butter strawberry wrap! You could also try swapping the almond butter for peanut butter! Your kid will feel like they’re eating dessert for lunch!

2. Make Your Own Lunchable 

What kid doesn’t love a Lunchable? But they aren’t always the most nutritious or cost effective. You can make your own with compartment lunch containers by using your children’s favorite snacks! Try following this list, or come up with your own ideas like cheese, crackers, lunchmeat, cookies, carrots, etc.

3. Breakfast for Lunch 

This is an easy way to use leftovers from breakfast! This list has a few ideas but try whatever you like! Consider things like dry cereal, yogurt, fruit, muffins, pancakes, etc.

4. Bagel with Cream Cheese 

This is another great alternative to regular sandwich lunches. You could also try pb&j on a bagel and add other snacks like fruits and veggies to make it a balanced meal!

5. Snack Packs

Give your kids something that’s easy and fun to eat! This list has lots of ideas to include, or try your kid’s favorite snacks like crackers, cheese, fruit, trail mix, lunchmeat, etc.

Send your kids back to school with these creative lunchbox ideas! They’ll be pleased to have a variety in their lunchbox and you can feel good about what they’re eating.
