If you want to motivate your child to eat and you have endless hours to surf Pinterest and carve veggies into the shape of your child’s favourite superhero, then this post is not for you. For all the moms out there who feel tired at the thought of planning healthy school lunches, then read on. We’re here to help.
We talked to our favourite down-to-earth social media moms (we skipped the overachieving Pinterest pros) and asked them to share their top healthy school lunch ideas:
Healthy School Lunch Ideas
1. Family Fun Canada lists a full week’s menu of healthy school lunch ideas. Each lunch is kid-friendly, uses leftovers, and is simple enough that an older child can make it themselves.
2. Deb Lowther from Raising Healthy Kids gives advice for developing healthy routines around school lunches and recommends healthy choices you can swap for packaged lunch items.
3. Visit the Today I Ate A Rainbow blog. You’ll find a number of fun and healthy ideas that you can add to your child’s lunch kit, with minimal effort on your part.
4. Finally, many of our school lunch savvy mamas recommend using bento boxes for school lunches. Laptop Lunches has a bento menu library full of healthy school lunch ideas.
Speaking of bento lunches, we’re in the process of testing a bunch of different bento boxes and litter-less lunch options. Subscribe to My Real Review now and you’ll be the first to hear which bento boxes are the best (because they can be pricey).
