STEP UP YOUR LUNCH BOX MAKING SKILLS
With the NEW YEAR here that means I need to do things differently! I make my daughter's lunch every day and over the break she told me she is tired of sandwiches and fruit snacks. So I guess it is time for me to step up the lunch box making game.
My resolution to her is to make better lunches and get creative. Change is good, and I'm open to learning about new products and ways to pack her lunch. Another resolution I made this year is SAVE MONEY! I know my local Walmart can help me create better lunches and save money.
Walmart has the “Think Outside the Lunchbox” booklet on 1 million packages of it’s Del Monte® Fruit Cups with $4.80 in instant coupon savings from these great lunchbox brands: The Laughing Cow® Cheese Dippers, Sara Lee® Snack Cakes, Juicy Juice®, Nature's Harvest® bread, Wet Ones® Hand Wipes, Mini Babybel® and Entenmann's® Little Bites™!
With all the coupons and cool products for her lunch, I know I'm able to pack her the best lunch she ever had this school year. I'm on it, now! We plan to use all the coupons. Of course, the Little Bites and Sara Lee cakes are her favorite items (mine too) but one thing she requests to have in her lunch every day is the Del Monte Fruit Cups! That's my girl. I also make sure to put a Wet Ones Antibacterial single wipe in her lunch box too- need to keep clean!
Are you with me...time to step up the Lunch Making Game? If you are, make sure to pick up the Del Monte Fruit Cups (with coupons) at Walmart and use the Think Outside the Lunchbox coupons. Let's have fun this year and make some bomb lunches for our kids. I have one more treat, and it is FREE TOO!
LUNCH BOX NOTES (Free Printable- right click on the picture and it will bring you to a page to print). My daughter loves to see a note from me at lunchtime; it helps her get through the rest of the day. Some days are hard so having a note of encouragement to keep going helps a lot. Plus her friends thinks it is cool to have a mom that puts that much thought in her lunch...I was called a COOL MOM. That might be the only time I'm called cool, so I'll take it!
This year let's make the LUNCH BOX RESOLUTION for our kids. Rock those lunches plus save money at Walmart!

These are awesome! I currently write on the inside of my daughter's lunch pail because it has a lightweight chalkboard inside of it. Handy! But I would love to use these. I also use the Dole Fruit Cups in her lunch pail as well. She loves them and they are so handy! Thank you for this list.
This is really great. I think its a great idea. I am for sure going to be printing out these lunch box notes, they are super cute!
I love the idea of including little messages or treats in your kid's lunch boxes. It's a nice way to show your kids you care and to brighten their day.
I think it's a great idea to give our kids healthier lunch choices! I'm glad you're making that change. It's going to be awesome and rewarding for both you and your child.
It's important that we give them healthier lunches, they need all the nutrients and vitamins after all. I think this is a lovely resolution! Keep it up!
I definitely need to start packing my lunch instead of buying a 7 dollar salad everyday! It'd be good for so many reasons!
Aww will share with my friend who does her own children's School lunches :) Super cute!
What a cute idea. I've been buying those stickers for years, but now I'm thinking of using a colorful markers and make a personal notes instead. Thanks for sharing.
I try to be as creative as I can. My son is tired of the sandwiches too. I do let him eat a hot lunch once a week and I've turned some sandwiches into tortilla wraps. That helps a bit with the monotony.
the printable notes are very intersting! i should go get this for my children's lunch box!
AWESOME, THANKS FOR SHARING I'LL BE LOOKING FOR THIS!
I could certainly up The Lunchbox game too. And I'm always up for saving money.
I'm always a fan of ways to save money! I love the little lunch box notes too!
How cute! I bet kids would be happy to discover these sweet little notes on their lunchboxes. :)
